b0dfa088a5 Move emacs to top-level nix expression
When I run `nix-build -f '<briefcase>' -iA emacs`, readTree will define...
- pkgs
- depot
- briefcase
...and whatever else I choose to define.

42c6ad3bb4 Simpify top-level nix expression
When I first created the monorepo, I borrowed @tazjin's monorepo's. I adapted
his depot/default.nix, replacing some of his paths with my paths. This worked
for me until recently.

I attemped to include <briefcase/monzo_ynab/job> as a systemd unit for my NixOS
machine, socrates. NixOS failed to build my changes, and I didn't fully
understand my default.nix since I borrowed most of it from @tazjin. I spent the
past week looking at the `fix` function. I realized that I didn't fully
understand how fixed-point recursion worked. This sent me down a rabbit hole
terminating with me studying the Y and Z combinators.

Ironically, after understanding the `fix` function, I realized that I didn't
need to use it where I was consuming it. I ended up pruning most of my
configuration, which resulted in this commit.

Yours truly,
lambda f: (lambda x: f(x(x)))(lambda x: f(x(x)))

6249e19cdc Add nixos as top-level monorepo package
I'd like to be able to call...
`nix-build -E '(import <briefcase> {}).nixos.socrates'`
...as part of my efforts to wane my dependence off of `nixos-rebuild`.

9e0fdd3973 Remove default values for Nix expression parameters
I'm not sure if this commit breaks everything in my monorepo. I think it
will.

Why am I doing this? Perhaps it's a bad idea. I don't fully understand how
readTree works. My ignorance is costing me hours of time spent debugging. In an
effort to better understand readTree, I'm removing the default values for my Nix
expression parameters, which I believe have preventing errors from surfacing.

fabf1c9334 Tidy up structure of briefcase
I had a spare fifteen minutes and decided that I should tidy up my
monorepo. The work of tidying up is not finished; this is a small step in the
right direction.

TL;DR
- Created a tools directory
- Created a scratch directory (see README.md for more information)
- Added README.md to third_party
- Renamed delete_dotfile_symlinks -> symlinkManager
- Packaged symlinkManager as an executable symlink-mgr using buildGo

- Moved monzo_ynab/utils -> gopkgs
- Consumed utils.go in main.go
- Renamed monzo_ynab -> job

5c9079a410 Splice ./universe directory into ./
Manually merging:
- README.md: I added the description from universe/README.md into the heading of
  dotfiles/README.md.
- .envrc: dotfiles/.envrc was a superset of universe/.envrc
- .gitignore: Adding some of the ignored patterns from universe/.gitignore to
  dotfiles/.gitignore

Everything else here should be a simple rename.
