Merge pull request #2765 from nh2/manual-nixpkgs-word 
manual: "Nix Package collection" -> "Nixpkgs package collection".

Daniel Schaefer 3f192ac80c Add builtins.hashFile 
For text files it is possible to do it like so:
`builtins.hashString "sha256" (builtins.readFile /tmp/a)`
but that doesn't work for binary files.

With builtins.hashFile any kind of file can be conveniently hashed.

Niklas Hambüchen 288f93cec0 manual: "Nix Package collection" -> "Nixpkgs package collection". 
Makes difference between Nix and Nixpkgs clearer to avoid
some common confusion this sentence on IRC.

Also disambiguate an "it" reference.

manual: mention the "channel:" shorthand for NIX_PATH 
Bumped to 15.09 because older channels, when downloaded from
nixos.org, require firefox to be accessed via `pkgs.firefox`

Add isPath primop 
this is added for completeness' sake since all the other possible
`builtins.typeOf` results have a corresponding `builtins.is<Type>`

Spencer Baugh 5f1891b795 nix-store: make --dump-db take a list of paths to dump 
Inside a derivation, exportReferencesGraph already provides a way to
dump the Nix database for a specific closure. On the command line,
--dump-db gave us the same information, but only for the entire Nix
database at once.

With this change, one can now pass a list of paths to --dump-db to get
the Nix database dumped for just those paths. (The user is responsible
for ensuring this is a closure, like for --export).

Among other things, this is useful for deploying a closure to a new
host without using --import/--export; one can use tar to transfer the
store paths, and --dump-db/--load-db to transfer the validity
information. This is useful if the new host doesn't actually have Nix
yet, and the closure that is being deployed itself contains Nix.

This prints the references graph of the store paths in the graphML

Benjamin Hipple 65453e2d77 Docs: update fixed output hashes 
`fetchurl` will now throw if given an `md5`, and the hashes have generally

documentation examples in the manual accordingly.
