lib.trivial.warnIf: init

Browse Source 
It's a common pattern in Nixpkgs to want to emit a warning in certain
cases, but not actually change behaviours.

This is often expressed as either
	if cond then lib.warn "Don't do that thing" x else x
Or
	(if cond then lib.warn "Don't do that thing" else lib.id) x

Neither of which really expresses the intent here, because it looks
like 'x' is being chosen conditionally.

To make this clearer, I introduce a "warnIf" function, which makes it
clear that the only thing being affected by the condition is whether
the warning is generated, not the value being returned.
