Creates a transformer function that writes input data to disk, transformed

# Example
```nix

```
makeDataWriter :: input -> output -> nameOrPath -> data -> (any -> string) -> string -> string -> any -> derivation

output :: string: script that takes the $inputFile and write the result into $out
nameOrPath :: string: if the name contains a / the files gets written to a sub-folder of $out. The derivation name is the basename of this argument.
data :: T: the data that will be converted.
