Inherit from prog-mode #1

Currently, this inherits from fundamental-mode when it should inherit from prog-mode (or potentially even cc-mode). Some references:

The benefits of extending from c-mode are that it provides all the comment formatting we need. However, it definitely needs to be tweaked. In particular, since whiley statements don't end with ; but rather with \n.
