Lorri does not cleanly integrate with my corporate device, which cannot run
NixOS. To expose dependencies to Emacs buffers, I will use nix-buffer.el, which
reads its values from dir-locals.nix. To easily expose dependencies from my
existing shell.nix files into dir-locals.nix, I wrote a Nix utility function.

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.

- Package tokens.go with Nix
- Add monzo_ynab.{job,tokens} to shell.nix

From what I currently understand, lorri is a tool (sponsored by Target) that
uses nix and direnv to build and switch between environments quickly and
easily.
When you run `lorri init` inside of a directory, lorri creates a shell.nix and
an .envrc file. The .envrc file calls `eval "$(lorri direnv)"` and the shell.nix
calls `<nixpkgs>.mkShell`, which creates a shell environment exposing
dependencies on $PATH and environment variables. lorri uses direnv to ensure
that $PATH and the environment variables are available depending on your CWD.
lorri becomes especially powerful because of Emacs's `direnv-mode`, which
ensures that Emacs buffers can access anything exposed by direnv as well.
I still need to learn more about how lorri works and how it will affect my
workflow, but I'm enjoying what I've seen thus far, and I'm optimistic about the
road ahead.
