Updates to nix-reduce-build: only realize fixed derivations if user asks so, or only use substituters. Oh, and add possibility to use : for things like /etc/nixos/nixpkgs:-A:gnused

* Make nix-env --dry-run print the paths to be substituted correctly
...
again. (After the previous substituter mechanism refactoring I
didn't update the code that obtains the references of substitutable
paths.) This required some refactoring: the substituter programs
are now kept running and receive/respond to info requests via
stdin/stdout.

* Allow read-only access to the store (e.g., non-root users on NixOS

can do operations like "nix-store -qR <path>" even without the Nix
daemon).

* Use the copy-from-other-stores substituter by default. Of course,
...
it only does something if $NIX_OTHER_STORES (not really a good
name...) is set.
* Do globbing on the elements of $NIX_OTHER_STORES. E.g. you could
set it to /mnts/*/nix or something.
* Install substituters in libexec/nix/substituters.

* Quick prototype of a substituter that copies paths from other Nix
...
stores (typically remote Nix stores mounted via e.g. NFS, or the Nix
store on the NixOS installation CD). Example use:
$ sshfs foo@example.org:/ /mnt
$ NIX_OTHER_STORES=/mnt/nix \
NIX_SUBSTITUTERS=.../copy-from-other-stores.pl \
nix-env -i foo
This will be especially useful for the installation CD since it
doesn't require a manifest for the CD contents.

* Export the nix-env derivation name parsing and version comparison
...
logic through the `parseDrvName' and `compareVersions' primops.
This will allow expressions to easily check whether some dependency
is a specific needed version or falls in some version range. See
tests/lang/eval-okay-versions.nix for examples.

bytes have been freed, `--max-links' to stop when the Nix store
directory has fewer than N hard links (the latter being important
for very large Nix stores on filesystems with a 32000 subdirectories
limit).

* sockaddr_un doesn't allow path names of more than 108 characters.

This isn't usually a problem, except that it causes tests to fail
when performed in a directory with a very long path name. So chdir
to the socket directory and use a relative path name.

* Use /tmp/nix-build-<drvpath>-<counter> instead of

/tmp/nix-<pid>-<counter> for temporary build directories. This
