Research direction

Run exercism f fsharp to fetch the Hangman exercise, then read its README and F#-specific files. Update the exercise documentation so it identifies the FRP library to install, or explains that no library is needed and provides the intended guidance; done means the README's promise is fulfilled.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

  1. Run exercism f fsharp to fetch the hangman exercise (if you're at that point).
  2. The README says "You'll need to install an FRP library for this, this will be described in the language/track specific files of the exercise."
  3. Nothing in the F#-specific files suggests which FRP library should be downloaded, or even a mesasge like "You don't need an FRP library for this; here's a skeleton of an FRP approach that you can copy and flesh out."
