Expand the help message printed from --help.
...
Fixes #10 . I consider this a temporary measure, however, until nix-repl has a
manpage (see #14 ). Then it can just open its manpage on --help like the other
nix tools do.
Much of the text in this commit was copied from nix-build's manpage.

According to popular practice and convention `nix-repl` now supports `--help`
like a good POSIX citizen[1].

Add sugar for defining a variable
...
‘x = <expr>’ is short for ‘:a { x = <expr>; }’. Note that the
right-hand side refers to the original scope, so you get:
nix-repl> x = 1
nix-repl> x = x + 1
nix-repl> x
2
rather than an infinite recursion.
