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.

ca6bd29ed8 Solve bonus part of reverse-words
InterviewCake asks "How would you handle punctuation?". Without precise specs
about what that entails, I'm supporting sentences ending with punctuation.

acf1b8c4f0 Solve InterviewCake's reverse-words
Wrote a function to reverse the words in a list of characters. A word is a
space-delimited strings of characters.

The trick here is to first reverse the entire string and then reverse each word
individually.

9fa97eab67 Solve merging-ranges
Write a function to merge meeting times. Added an in-place solution, which the
"Bonus" section suggested attempting to solve.

- Added some simple benchmarks to test the performance differences between the
  in-place and not-in-place variants. To my surprise, the in-place solution was
  consistently slower than the not-in-place solution.

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
