2a170f1ed7 fix(buildLisp): Perform a topological sort of dependencies
This ensures that dependencies are loaded in the correct order in
larger dependency graphs.

e3a8dc9500 fix(buildLisp): Cursed code to fix load ordering
It's not enough to compile in the right order - turns out you also
have to load the compiled objects in the right order.

To achieve this some cursed code has been added that changes the Lisp
generated by Nix to compile the other Lisp so that it also generates
some bash, which Nix can then use to concatenate the FASLs in the
right order to feed them to Lisp again.

It works but I'll replace it with a more elegant solution once one is
needed.

b5e1e81a3d feat(buildLisp): Add function to wrap SBCL with dependencies

all the requested dependencies.

ca199a57d9 feat(buildLisp): Implement dependency loading & propagation
Similar to buildGo.nix, the library derivations carry information
about their dependencies which is merged when a load file is
instantiated.

The load files are created when compiling libraries, but will in the
future also be created when wrapping SBCL and dumping images.

1297afec4b fix(buildLisp): Fail the build on compilation errors
This needs to be handled explicitly in the COMPILE-FILE form.

a954bd8d5e feat(nix/buildLisp): Add initial sketch including buildLisp.library
Adds a Nix function to build a Lisp library out of a specified set of
Nix files. All files are combined into a single FASL.

This is by design only compatible with SBCL (for now).

03bfe08e1d chore: Significantly restructure folder layout
This moves the various projects from "type-based" folders (such as
"services" or "tools") into more appropriate semantic folders (such as
"nix", "ops" or "web").

Deprecated projects (nixcon-demo & gotest) which only existed for
testing/demonstration purposes have been removed.

(Note: *all* builds are broken with this commit)

5f4664ad5a Fix rendering of pipes in code blocks across dialects
Pipes inside of code blocks inside of tables seem to pose a challenge
for some Markdown renderers. Not a problem for Github's but this page
is occasionally embedded in other documentation (such as nixery.dev)

8b325cd791 Make Github's Nix highlighter happy
The highlighter expects that all code blocks are valid expressions (to
some degree) and highlights mismatches in dark red, which is not
particularly pleasant for the reader.

This introduces a "fake" attribute set in the `inherit` section to
please the highlighter.

bb02b01dd0 Add Nix idioms (file lambdas, callPackage, overrides)
These are not strictly speaking language features, but my intention
for this document is that someone can - after reading it - navigate a
large chunk of existing Nix code.

32e4cfdda4 Check in initial version of nix-1p
Adds the initial version originally published as a gist. This is
already slightly different from the gist in that it contains a section
on derivations.

This is not yet complete.
