doc: add function argument order convention (#110060)
* doc: add function argument order convention

Ordering by usage is the de facto ordering given to arguments. It's
logical, and makes finding argument usage easier. Putting lib first is
common in NixOS modules, so it's reasonable to mirror this in nixpkgs
proper. Additionally, it's not a package as such, has zero dependencies,
and can be found used anywhere in a derivation.

Alyssa Ross c06b2b3d67 doc: add "prefer lib over stdenv.lib" convention
I think we should have something in the manual people can point to
about this, to avoid rehashing it over and over in PRs.  "stdenv.lib"
makes it look like lib is part of stdenv, which it isn't, and makes it
even more confusing as a newcomer to figure out what stdenv is (and
isn't).

AndersonTorres 2bb3a9da24 A directory-category for terminal emulators
This is a mostly cosmetical commit, in the sense it doesn't change the contents
of any package, but reorganizes the overall Nixpkgs expressions.

Terminal emulators are an ubiquitous tool for any Unix user; even the beginners
are routinely familiarized to it. And, manifestly, there are many
implementations of terminal emulators out there, from those traditionally made
in C and C++ to those written in Haskell and Go.

Terminal emulators deserve more highlight. This commit does that by creating a
category for them.
