v0.4.0

[vic]

flake-file now supports several fetch/locking mechanisms besides Nix Flakes: unflake, npins, nixlock.

Each of them has a corresponding flakeModule.<name> and template.

Also, each of them provides an app write-flake/write-unflake/write-npins/write-nixlock which can be
called directly by our new Bootstrap nix-shell.

That means people can try any flake-file backend without compromise, you just need a flake.nix file:

# This example uses some flake.nix of yours and uses nixlock on it:
mkdir testing
nix-shell https://github.com/vic/flake-file/archive/refs/heads/main.zip \
  -A flake-file.sh --arg modules /some/flake.nix --run write-nixlock --argstr outdir ./testing

Each template provides a ./modules ready environment, eg: templates/nixlock.
