[J3] Proposals for new intrinsic procedures

[Brad Richardson]

To those interested, I have produced drafts of the proposals as PRs to
the j3-fortran/fortran_proposals Github repositories.

https://github.com/j3-fortran/fortran_proposals/pull/290
https://github.com/j3-fortran/fortran_proposals/pull/291

I welcome any comments or suggestions there. I will upload the papers
to the J3 site after making any suggested changes.

Regards,
Brad
