Georges Dubus bc6e7ca046 Don't use read-only mode for nix build --dry-run
In dry run mode, new derivations can't be create, so running the command on anything that has not been evaluated before results in an error message of the form `don't know how to build these paths (may be caused by read-only store access)`.

For comparison, the classical `nix-build --dry-run` doesn't use read-only mode.

Closes #1795

(cherry picked from commit 54525682df707742e58311c32e9c9cb18de1e31f)
