build(flake): Replace self-packaged cranelift with rustup's
Motivation
==========
The self-packed one sort-of worked, but was rather flaky, while the one
from rustup obviously works, as it's an officially distributed part.

Running it
==========
Instead of the `cargo clif [build, etc.]` you now need to run (on nightly):
```
RUSTFLAGS="-Zcodegen-backend=cranelift" cargo build
```

Performance
===========
On my system I noticed, that a debug build takes around 20 sec *more*
with cranelift, compared to the default LLVM backend.

One possible hypothesis, for that could be, that cranelift does
not link via `mold` but instead still uses GNU's `gold`.

On the other hand, the performance decrease could also be caused
by the fact, that it's an early preview and some optimizations are
still lacking.

Build(flake): Initialize the flake
A nix flake is a reproducible way to describe the building process
to [nix](1).
See [the nix download page](1), on how to install nix. Afterwards
running `nix build` in the repository will result in a successful build.

Flakes and nix-commands are still experimental so they must be enabled
as described in [the corresponding wiki entry](2)
