Subject: [PATCH] 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.

+# 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"
