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. * doc: clean up usage of lib
