If `:edit`ing a store path, don't reload repl afterwards
to avoid losing local variables: store is immutable,
so "editing" a store path is always just viewing it.

Calling `:edit` from the repl now only reloads if the file being edited was outside of Nix store.
|
|
That means that all the local variables are now preserved across `:edit`s of store paths.
|
|
This is always safe because the store is read-only.
