/**
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);
accₙ₊₁ = builtins.seq accₙ (op accₙ xₙ );
in
accₙ₊₁
# Or ignoring builtins.seq
op (op (... (op (op (op acc₀ x₀) x₁) x₂) ...) xₙ₋₁) xₙ
```
# Inputs
`op`
: The binary operation to run, where the two arguments are:
1. `acc`: The current accumulator value: Either the initial one for the first iteration, or the result of the previous iteration
2. `x`: The corresponding list element for this iteration
`acc`
: The initial accumulator value.
The accumulator value is evaluated in any case before the first iteration starts.
To avoid evaluation even before the `list` argument is given an eta expansion can be used:
```nix
list: lib.foldl' op acc list
```
`list`
: The list to fold
# Type
```
foldl' :: (acc -> x -> acc) -> acc -> [x] -> acc
