Unify `shell.*.nix` into one

[André A. Gomes]

It makes little sense to have several files to define the dev env in Nix.

I've tried it but got stuck. I have no experience with Nix, so help is highly appreciated.

not sure... but it ran when doing this:

      LD_LIBRARY_PATH = with lib;
        makeLibraryPath (
          [
            pkgs.enchant.out

        );

Most likely, it won't make sense to pursue the goal of the original issue anymore due to atlas-engineer/cl-electron#43. In other words, the dev env for electron won't be based on Nix.

On second thought, the nix environment is still helpful to handle the non-Node.js dependencies.

Fixed via 3abca58. Thanks @aliyss for the tip.
