Consider renaming project to avoid confusion with Expat XML parser #2

Hey,

there is already a popular C library libexpat, which is also spelled Expat in short or Expat XML parser in full, so it might make sense to rename this project to something else to avoid confusion.

See: https://libexpat.github.io

Hey,

Actually, before the v1.0 rewrite I was thinking of renaming it, or perhaps just creating another project for the rewrite, and since I already have three client code bases that use expat, I wouldn't like to break those dependencies. But again v0 -> v1 does require people maintaning those code bases to explicitly update the new version in the mix file haha. So it's just that I didn't think much about another name, but I'm open to suggestions :)

How about just pam (Patterns as Macros), short and sweet.

pame could be pam expand.
