fzf: add script for finding 'share' folder
So that helper scripts can be easily sourced in interactive shell configuration. `autojump` package was already present and had the same requirements for findind a `share` folders, so I took an inspiration there. I beleive this is a better alternative to: - https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/25080 - https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/27058 Replacing `$out/share/shell` with `$bin/share/fzf` was necessary to prevent dependency loop in produced derivations.
