I would like to request for a new function inside the math library math.avg takes in vardiac of numbers and return the average of them. This request can be compensated for if [math.sum](luau-lang#225) instead is implemented. More info inside the md file.

math.sum a fundemental function who adds numbers together perfect
for unknown vardiac arguments and simplifies other user-defined functions like math.avg.
