Create //playbooks

I'm particularly excited about this idea. As I was reading Graham's "Erase your
darlings" blog post, I had an idea: I should have playbooks at the root of my
monorepo.

I can have playbooks for the following:
- How to install NixOS
- How to build GCR images from Nix expressions
- A collection of miscellaneous shell commands (e.g. "how to kill a process by name")
- What series of steps should I follow when I receive a paycheck

I already keep README's at the root of each package, which I think is where many
of these instructions belong. Other tutorials that I write for myself that do
not belong to any package can go in //playbooks. I also will host my personal
habits in //playbooks since habits are a bit like playbooks for life. Let's see
how this idea ages as the caffeine wears off...
