Reduce a list by applying a binary operator from left to right,
starting with an initial accumulator.
Before each application of the operator, the accumulator value is evaluated.
This behavior makes this function stricter than [`foldl`](#function-library-lib.lists.foldl).
Unlike [`builtins.foldl'`](https://nixos.org/manual/nix/unstable/language/builtins.html#builtins-foldl'),
the initial accumulator argument is evaluated before the first iteration.
A call like
```nix
foldl' op acc₀ [ x₀ x₁ x₂ ... xₙ₋₁ xₙ ]
```
is (denotationally) equivalent to the following,
but with the added benefit that `foldl'` itself will never overflow the stack.
```nix
let
acc₁ = builtins.seq acc₀ (op acc₀ x₀ );
acc₂ = builtins.seq acc₁ (op acc₁ x₁ );
acc₃ = builtins.seq acc₂ (op acc₂ x₂ );
...
accₙ = builtins.seq accₙ₋₁ (op accₙ₋₁ xₙ₋₁);
