Hack machine VM Translator

Description

This is a vm translator written in rust to facilitate the translation of the supported vm command to its associated Hack's assembly instruction.

I have ensured the translator documents each processed command to make debugging easier.

Version 2: Stage 2 translator

• provide stack pointers initialization requirements

• provide jump statement requirment

• function init and goto statement
