lib: introduce `foreach` = flip map

The main purpose is to bring attention to `flip map`, which improves
code readablity. It is useful when ad-hoc anonymous function
grows two or more lines in `map` application:

```
      map (lcfg:
        let port = lcfg.port;
            portStr = if port != defaultPort then ":${toString port}" else "";
            scheme = if cfg.enableSSL then "https" else "http";
        in "${scheme}://cfg.hostName${portStr}"
      ) (getListen cfg);
```
Compare this to `foreach`-style:
```
      foreach (getListen cfg) (lcfg:
        let port = lcfg.port;
            portStr = if port != defaultPort then ":${toString port}" else "";
            scheme = if cfg.enableSSL then "https" else "http";
        in "${scheme}://cfg.hostName${portStr}"
      );
```
This is similar to Haskell's `for` (http://hackage.haskell.org/package/base-4.12.0.0/docs/Data-Traversable.html#v:for)
