Always enter first level of attrset in nix search

Browse source 
This makes nix search always go through the first level of an
attribute set, even if it's not a top level attribute. For instance,
you can now list all GHC compilers with:

$ nix search nixpkgs#haskell.compiler
...

This is similar to how nix-env works when you pass in -A.
