Added Rui Ge's submission.
Added an MetaOCaml impl, a Prolog impl, and added myself to people.json.

+1. Generalised Fibonacci Function is one of the most well-known example in the community of multi-stage programming.
+2. This example has been tested on BER MetaOCaml. If you are unfamiliar to MetaOCaml, follow these steps:
+ (1) Install BER MetaOCaml
+ (2) In your Terminal, go the directory of this file and run:
+ % metaocaml
+ # #use "gfib.ml";;
+ (3) Try gfib_10 on a few instances of a and b at runtime:
+ # open Runcode;;
+ # run gfib_10 1 1;;
+ # run gfib_10 12 23;;
+ # run gfib_10 ~-1 ~-2;;
+ (4) Exit:
+ # exit 0;;
+3. Can you rewrite the programs (both unstaged and staged) for better runtime performance?
