libcmd/installables: force re-evaluation of cached failures
I think that it's not very helpful to get "cached failures" in a wrong
`flake.nix`. This can be very confusing when debugging a Nix expression.
See for instance NixOS/nixpkgs#118115.

In fact, the eval cache allows a forced reevaluation which is used for
e.g. `nix eval`.

This change makes sure that this is the case for `nix build` as well. So
rather than

    λ ma27 [~/Projects/exp] → ../nix/outputs/out/bin/nix build -L --rebuild --experimental-features 'nix-command flakes'
    error: cached failure of attribute 'defaultPackage.x86_64-linux'

the evaluation of already-evaluated (and failed) attributes looks like
this now:

    λ ma27 [~/Projects/exp] → ../nix/outputs/out/bin/nix build -L --rebuild --experimental-features 'nix-command flakes'
    error: attribute 'hell' missing

           at /nix/store/mrnvi9ss8zn5wj6gpn4bcd68vbh42mfh-source/flake.nix:6:35:
