nix/why-depends: fix output when not using --precise 
On Nix 2.6 the output of `nix why-depends --all` seems to be somewhat
off:

    $ nix why-depends /nix/store/kn47hayxab8gc01jhr98dwyywbx561aq-nixos-system-roflmayr-21.11.20220207.6c202a9.drv /nix/store/srn5jbs1q30jpybdmxqrwskyny659qgc-nix-2.6.drv --derivation  --extra-experimental-features nix-command  --all

Please note that `[...]-system-units.drv` is supposed to be a direct
child of `[...]-etc.drv`.

The reason for that is that each new level printed by `printNode` is
four spaces off in comparison to `nix why-depends --precise` because the
recursive `printNode()` only prints the path and not the `tree*`-chars in
the case of `--precise` and in this format the path is four spaces further
indented, i.e. on a newline, but on the same level as the path's children, i.e.

    /nix/store/kn47hayxab8gc01jhr98dwyywbx561aq-nixos-system-roflmayr-21.11.20220207.6c202a9.drv
    └───/: …1-p8.drv",["out"]),("/nix/store/g8bpgfjhh5vxrdq0w6r6s64f9kkm9z6c-etc.drv",["out"]),("/nix/store/…
        → /nix/store/g8bpgfjhh5vxrdq0w6r6s64f9kkm9z6c-etc.drv

As you can see `[...]-etc.drv` is a direct child of the root, but four
spaces indented. This logic was directly applied to the code-path with
`precise=false` which resulted in `tree*` being printed four spaces too
deep.

In case of no `--precise`, `hits[hash]` is empty and the path itself
should be printed rather than hits using the same logic as for `hits[hash]`.

With this fix, the output looks correct now:

    /nix/store/kn47hayxab8gc01jhr98dwyywbx561aq-nixos-system-roflmayr-21.11.20220207.6c202a9.drv
