* nix-env --switch-generation / --list-generations /

--delete-generations: lock the profile to prevent (extremely
unlikely) race conditions.

* Fix a huge gaping hole in nix-env w.r.t. the garbage collector.
...
Nix-env failed to call addPermRoot(), which is necessary to safely
add a new root. So if nix-env started after and finished before the
garbage collector, the user environment (plus all other new stuff)
it built might be garbage collected, leading to a dangling symlink
chain in ~/.nix-profile...
* Be more explicit if we block on the GC lock ("waiting for the big
garbage collector lock...").
* Don't loop trying to create a new generation. It's not necessary
anymore since profiles are locked nowadays.

* Convenience option `nix-collect-garbage -d' (--delete-old): removes
...
old generations of *all* profiles in /nix/var/nix/profiles, then
runs the garbage collector. Quick way to get rid of all old stuff.
Of course, one cannot roll back to earlier points in time after
this.

* New primop: builtins.toFile, which writes a string into the store
...
and returns its path. This can be used to (for instance) write
builders inside a Nix expression, e.g.,
stdenv.mkDerivation {
builder = "

";

}

bad flex doesn't have lexical restrictions, the current solution

* Removed processBinding, instead we now apply toString to all

derivation attributes to flatten them into strings. This is
possible since string can nowadays be wrapped in contexts that
describe the derivations/sources referenced by the evaluation of the
string.

* A new primop `builtins', which returns an attribute set containing
...
all the primops. This allows Nix expressions to test for new
primops and take appropriate action if they're not available. For
instance, rather than calling a primop `foo' directly, they could
say `if builtins ? foo then builtins.foo ... else ...'.
