Prefer direnv's use_nix to shell.nix
I find it bothersome to share the list of Haskell dependencies between my default.nix and shell.nix files. A few days ago, I created a THIRD file, shared.nix, that defined the shared code b/w default.nix and shell.nix. This DRY'd things up, but it also added a new file, which I didn't like. Today I learned that direnv integrates with Nix using a function called `use_nix`. Voila! I typically already have .envrc files per-project, so this doesn't add any unnecessary files, and it allows me to delete my shell.nix files. I would use `lorri`, except that I encountered issues using Lorri on my work computer, which I'm not interested in attempting to resolve now.
