f59ab9aba5 feat(sterni/nix/fun): add hasEllipsis
As a complementation to builtins.functionArgs this function checks if
the function has a set pattern that contains an ellipsis
(i. e. `{ [arg, [ arg1, [ … ]]] ... }:`). The implementation of this is
pretty cursed however since there is no clean way to do this in vanilla
nix: We need to match on the output of builtins.toXML which does try to
serialize functions by outputting their argument and information about
it (whether it is a normal argument or a attribute set pattern, in the
latter case it also serialize every component of the pattern).

3b33c1bd76 feat(users/sterni/nix): add sternis nix lib
What you see here is mostly the fallout of me implementing a correct
urlencode implementation in nix for Profpatsch's blog implementation
(although they'll probably keep it at arm's length).

Where I want to go from here:

* Extend this library towards general purpose nix™, mainly by
  implementing missing interfaces which you'd still have to use
  <nixpkgs/lib> for right now. Reexposing parts of <nixpkgs/lib>
  with better naming is fine for now, at some point I'd contemplate
  making this depend on nothing outside of depot, maybe even itself
  (should be easy we only use yants for an easily replaceable check).

* Improve error messages possibly by carefully reintroducing yants. I
  originally typed essentially everything using yants, but turns out
  this can a) be dangerous when stuff you are handling throws because
  type checking means evaluating and b) has a incredible performance
  cost in some cases.

* Reexpose builtins with better naming and slightly wrapped so they
  don't unrecoverably throw in cases where a null or something would
  suffice.
