Other compilation targets? #664

Description

What's Amber's stance on other compilation targets, such as Zsh, Fish, or pure POSIX? Maybe post 1.0? Today, could I safely use compiled Amber functions in my Zsh shell?

    Though I don't know what is the goal of Amber, I am personally using amber i) To run a script for some old servers ii) To achieve the zero-dependency, because almost every machine I maintain has Bash and iii) To use where bash is basically supported (github actions, user-data in cloud-init, Packer shell provisioner etc). So other shells then sh itself are not in the scope I am interested.

    What is your use case?
