Many dependencies of clan-cli are currently dynamically loaded via nix-shell on each execution. This is nice, as it reduces the initial closure size of clan, but the overhead introduced by nix-shell piles up quickly, as some commands shell out many times during their lifetime. For example, when adding a secret git is called 10+ times. This reduces the time of a test which adds a secret from around 50 seconds to 15 seconds. - add run_cmd() as an alternative to nix_shell() - introduce the concept of static dependencies which do not need to go through nix-shell - static dependencies are defined at build time and included into the wrapper for clan-cli - add package: clan-cli-full which statically ships all required dependencies TODO: deprecate nix_shell() in favor of run_cmd()
