Index arrays with ordinals instead of integers with custom literals (programming.dev)

I did a code that uses custom literals to allow indexing arrays with ordinals (1st, 2nd, 3rd), all at compile time. Additionally _st works only with 1, _nd only with 2, _rd only with 3. Zero and negative numbers are also not supported and fail compilation.

Yeah, that was basically it.
