[Ann]: An Implementation of the Shen programming language in Elisp and a call for help

Hi all,
I'm happy to announce a port of the Shen programming language [1] to Elisp
[2]. This means that all Shen programs can be run directly from Emacs
without any other dependencies. It is available for immediate installation
via Melpa [3].

However I could use some help with a couple of issues with packaging and
warnings generated by the byte-compiler:
1. I can't seem to get rid of warnings when byte-compiling the generated
"shen.el" [4] even though I have the byte-compile-warnings property the top
of the file. I'm getting a lot of "unused lexical variable" warnings even
though "lexical" is in the list of warnings.
2. I would like for the "shen.el" and "shen-primitives.el" [5] file to be
byte-compiled and loaded right after compilation even though they don't
have any autoloads. Currently they are only loaded with I call the function
`shen/repl` [6] which doesn't feel very responsive. Ideally they are loaded
at the time they are compiled.

Thanks!
