Using lib.pipe for readability. Moved analyze into the public functions so I can
debug things easier by calling bild.analyze from the nix repl.

There is a bug in nixpkgs where lib.strings.splitString overflows on long lines.
builtins.split performs better, but needs the extra filter for some reason.

Now bild knows how to determine between modules that require ghcjs and ghc. It
also knows what *not* to build, meaning it won't try to build non-buildable nix
targets, for example (unfortunately this is just hardcoded for now), but it also
won't build scm or py targets that I haven't implemented yet. It just silently
fails, which is fine, because it means I can do `bild **/*` and everything just
works.
Of course, if I want to build scm code then I will have to implement that, but
that's not a priority right now.

I had to refactor Biz/Bild/Rules.nix. I also had to checkin my patched
hoogle.nix file, but I also upstreamed the patch to nixpkgs-dev so it shouldn't
stick around for too long.

I reorganized in order to debug a problem with the nix overlays. I think
having small, focused overlayes is more understandable than one overlay
that references itself via `rec`. Also the error traces are easier to
follow with smaller overlays.

Also had to capitalize some stuff, and move some nix files around and rename
the metadata directive from 'exe' to 'out' because that just makes more sense,
and fix some compiler errors. But now bild treats both nix and hs files as
buildable things. So that's cool.
One interesting example is Biz/Pie.{nix,hs} - I can either create a dev build of
the hs file with ghc, or I can create a fully-encapsulated nix build. Its nice
to have both options because a dev build with ghc takes half the amount of time,
and I can rely on my locally cached hi and ho files. I think this shows the
power of bild, but also can be a somewhat subtle thing.
The issue really is with the separate command calls in nix builds vs dev builds.
I figure there are a few ways to fix this:
1. Try to use bild inside the nix rules. That could be interesting, but could
also lead to some weird behavior or worm holes forming.
2. Extract the command line invocation into a separate file, some kind of
really simple template that gets pulled into both programs.
It is important to consider that in the future I might want to have bild do a
module-by-module nix build of programs, but I'm not sure how that would effect
my choice here.

Also correctly renamed the files (didn't work the first time thanks to
the macOS filesystem) and moved the default build.os settings to a
OsBase.nix file to be used via imports.
