Eelco Dolstra d57981bac4 Store::queryMissing(): Use a thread pool
For one particular NixOS configuration, this cut the runtime of
"nix-store -r --dry-run" from 6m51s to 3.4s. It also fixes a bug in
the size calculation that was causing certain paths to be counted
twice, e.g. before:

  these paths will be fetched (1249.98 MiB download, 2995.74 MiB unpacked):

and after:

  these paths will be fetched (1219.56 MiB download, 2862.17 MiB unpacked):

Nix, the purely functional package manager

Nix is a new take on package management that is fairly unique. Because of it's purity aspects, a lot of issues found in traditional package managers don't appear with Nix.

To find out more about the tool, usage and installation instructions, please read the manual, which is available on the Nix website at http://nixos.org/nix/manual.
