Also fix typos introduced by the commits I read.
I have run the addDrvOutputDependencies release note past Ericson since
I was confused by what the heck it was doing, and he was saying it was
reasonable.

Previously, the garbage collector found runtime roots on Darwin by shelling out to `lsof -n -w -F n` then parsing the result. The version of `lsof` packaged in Nixpkgs is very slow on Darwin, so Lix now uses `libproc` directly to speed up GC root discovery, in some tests taking 250ms now instead of 40s.
