Eelco Dolstra fa9259f5f5 * Simplify the substitute mechanism:
- Drop the store expression.  So now a substitute is just a
    command-line invocation (a program name + arguments).  If you
    register a substitute you are responsible for registering the
    expression that built it (if any) as a root of the garbage
    collector.
  - Drop the substitutes-rev DB table.

Eelco Dolstra 76c0e85929 * The environment variable NIX_ROOT can now be set to execute Nix in a
chroot() environment.
* A operation `--validpath' to register path validity.  Useful for
  bootstrapping in a pure Nix environment.
* Safety checks: ensure that files involved in store operations are in
  the store.
