Split from https://github.com/morganey-lang/Morganey/issues/281#issuecomment-258441946

Original description by @ForNeVeR:

Write a program that reads an optional name parameter from stdin and prints a message:

<h1>Hello {name}</h1>
Enter next name: <form><input name="name" /><button>Hi</button></form>

Add an instruction to connect that to CGI. Why the hell not! I recommend to put additional parser in front of program that will parse and strip out HTTP headers and stuff.

To implement that we need some kind of raw mode that outputs Church Lists of Church Numbers explicitly without any Smart Detection™. And I'm still not sure how it will fit the entire design of the language. Need to think about it a bit more.
