nix-shell for Node.js

WIP

What is it?

A nix-shell template to set a Node.js development environment up with direnv integration (if installed).

Built gathering inspiration from several sources, it makes available:

• unstable.nodejs-16_x
  • from nixos.org/packages
    • in version 16_x (currently 16.8)
• unstable.nodePackages.typescript-language-server (LSP)
  • from nixos.org/packages
• Jest basic initialization via setup script
  • some npm sugarness can be added
