A default line length of 100 characters? Wow, they're moving with times. None of that 80 character archaicness ๐Ÿ‘

The leading comma style was a lesser-evil workaround for the lack of trailing commas in the Nix language. Now that the language has this feature, there is no reason to keep it that way anymore.

Amazing! Finally that terrible style is out.

About time they decide to format nixpkgs. That is such a mess at the moment and gives reviewers the ability to nitpick and force their own style - of course every reviewer has a different style. Only took them ~25 years, but they're getting there ๐Ÿ‘

Good job on getting this through.
