Add config for nix-shell (#1359)

* Add config for nix-shell

This adds a development environment for Nix users, which automatically installs all libraries needed for building and fixes some nix stuff.

* Add Mold

This adds the Mold-Linker to improve build times. I also added an alias,
so cargo is run through mold.

# This is a helper file for people using NixOs as their Operating System

# If you are using nix as your package manager, you can run 'nix-shell'
# in the root directory of the project and nix will open a bash shell
# with all the packages needed to build and run Graphite installed.
# A shell.nix file is used in the Nix ecosystem to define a development
# environment with specific dependencies. When you enter a Nix shell using
# this file, it ensures that all the specified tools and libraries are
# available regardless of the host system's configuration. This provides
# a reproducible development environment across different machines and developers.
# If you don't need the shell, you can build Graphite using this command:
# nix-shell --command "npm start"
