John Ericson 68c81c7375 Put functional tests in tests/functional
I think it is bad for these reasons when `tests/` contains a mix of
functional and integration tests

 - Concepts is harder to understand, the documentation makes a good
   unit vs functional vs integration distinction, but when the
   integration tests are just two subdirs within `tests/` this is not
   clear.

 - Source filtering in the `flake.nix` is more complex. We need to
   filter out some of the dirs from `tests/`, rather than simply pick
   the dirs we want and take all of them. This is a good sign the
   structure of what we are trying to do is not matching the structure
   of the files.

With this change we have a clean:
```shell-session
$ git show 'HEAD:tests'
tree HEAD:tests

functional/
installer/
nixos/
```

sternenseemann d0f2da214b primops: make nature of foldl' strictness clearer
* Clarify the documentation of foldl': That the arguments are forced
  before application (?) of `op` is necessarily true. What is important
  to stress is that we force every application of `op`, even when the
  value turns out to be unused.

* Move the example before the comment about strictness to make it less
  confusing: It is a general example and doesn't really showcase anything
  about foldl' strictness.

* Add test cases which nail down aspects of foldl' strictness:
  * The initial accumulator value is not forced unconditionally.
  * Applications of op are forced.
  * The list elements are not forced unconditionally.
