If the build users group is empty, builds will be performed under
the uid of the Nix process (that is, the uid of the caller if
`NIX_REMOTE` is empty, the uid under which the Nix daemon runs if
`NIX_REMOTE` is `daemon`). Obviously, this should not be used in
multi-user settings with untrusted users.
`NIX_REMOTE` is `daemon`). Obviously, this should not be used
with a nix daemon accessible to untrusted clients.
