error: getting status of '/nix/store/j8p0vv89k1pf0cn7kmfsdcs7bshwga1i-firefox-52.7.2esr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/firefox.png': No such file or directory

Also improve error message on directory/non-directory collisions.
For instance, this reduced the memory consumption of
$ nix copy --from ssh://localhost --to ~/my-nix /nix/store/1n7x0yv8vq6zi90hfmian84vdhd04bgp-blender-2.79a
from 632 MiB to 16 MiB.
From exec(3):
> The list of arguments must be terminated by a null pointer, and, since these
> are variadic functions, this pointer must be cast (char *) NULL
E.g.
cannot build on 'ssh://mac1': cannot connect to 'mac1': bash: nix-store: command not found
cannot build on 'ssh://mac2': cannot connect to 'mac2': Host key verification failed.
cannot build on 'ssh://mac3': cannot connect to 'mac3': Received disconnect from 213... port 6001:2: Too many authentication failures
Authentication failed.
copyStorePath() now pipes the output of srcStore->narFromPath()
directly into dstStore->addToStore(). The sink used by the former is
converted into a source usable by the latter using
boost::coroutine2. This is based on [1].
This reduces the maximum resident size of
$ nix build --store ~/my-nix/ /nix/store/b0zlxla7dmy1iwc3g459rjznx59797xy-binutils-2.28.1 --substituters file:///tmp/binary-cache-xz/ --no-require-sigs
from 418592 KiB to 53416 KiB. (The previous commit also reduced the
runtime from ~4.2s to ~3.4s, not sure why.) A further improvement will
be to download files into a Sink.

Issue #1969.
It was holding on to a Value* (i.e. a std::shared_ptr<ValidPathInfo>*)
outside of the pathInfoCache lock, so the std::shared_ptr could be
destroyed between the release of the lock and the decrement of the
std::shared_ptr refcount. This can happen if more than
'path-info-cache-size' paths are added in the meantime, *or* if
clearPathInfoCache() is called. The hydra-queue-runner queue monitor
thread periodically calls the later, so is likely to trigger a crash.
Fixes https://github.com/NixOS/hydra/issues/542.
