External gleam fallbacks
It's possible for a function to have both a Gleam implementation and an external implementation. If there exists an external implementation for the currently compiled-for target then it will be used, otherwise the Gleam implementation is used.
This may be useful if you have a function that can be implemented in Gleam, but there is an optimised implementation that can be used for one target. For example, the Erlang virtual machine has a built-in list reverse function that is implemented in native code. The code here uses this implementation when running on Erlang, as it is then available.
