Description

This RFC proposes adding a stdlib ASCII art in the default welcome message in the REPL.

I think it looks cool:

stdlibjs

stdlib

The above ASCII art was generated using this website

@Snehil-Shah We had this as an internal TODO with a link to the same website, so I am okay with moving this forward. My personal preference is the latter ASCII. We typically don't include -js or .js in our branding, as we don't consider the project just a JavaScript project.

Similar to Julia, you might consider a few different layouts. Say, with a link to our docs and the tag line to the right of the ASCII art.

Feel free to propose other layouts and submit a PR adding this.
