Main requirements, rules and code style: Norm.

Description

Mandatory part

• Each call to get_next_line() should return next line from the text file pointed to
  by the file descriptor.

• Function should return NULL in case of an error or if there is nothing else to read.

• Reading from the text file should work due to reading characters piece by piece into
  buffer with BUFFER_SIZE size.

Bonus part

  descriptors at the same time. At most one static variable is allowed.
