Description
these tests fail randomly so hydra eventually manages to build shadowenv, but this should really pass first try
❯ nix-build -A shadowenv
error: builder for '/nix/store/a340k0chdxzmlaf996rr1mldb128ibqk-shadowenv-3.0.3.drv' failed with exit code 101;

Research direction
Start by running nix-build -A shadowenv and inspect src/loader.rs:104, where the reported unwrap failures occur. Focus on the four failing loader::tests::find_shadowenv_paths_* tests and determine why they intermittently encounter a missing path. Done means the tests pass reliably and the Nix build succeeds on the first try.
