Implementation of a function written in C that reads a lines from a file descriptor

GNL - getline() but in C

The goal of this project is to develop a function in C that reads lines ending with a newline character ('\n') from a file descriptor without prior knowledge of their size. Through this project, we aim to explore the concept of static variables in C programming and gain insight into memory allocations, buffer manipulation, and the lifecycle of buffers.
