Eelco Dolstra a9c4f66cfb * Allow unprivileged users to run the garbage collector and to do
`nix-store --delete'.  But unprivileged users are not allowed to
  ignore liveness.
* `nix-store --delete --ignore-liveness': ignore the runtime roots as
  well.

Eelco Dolstra 29cf434a35 * The determination of the root set should be made by the privileged
process, so forward the operation.
* Spam the user about GC misconfigurations (NIX-71).
* findRoots: skip all roots that are unreadable - the warnings with
  which we spam the user should be enough.

Eelco Dolstra 74033a844f * Add indirect root registration to the protocol so that unprivileged
processes can register indirect roots.  Of course, there is still
  the problem that the garbage collector can only read the targets of
  the indirect roots when it's running as root...

Eelco Dolstra 4740baf3a6 * When NIX_REMOTE=daemon, connect to /nix/var/nix/daemon.socket
instead of forking a worker.

Eelco Dolstra 7951c3c546 * Some hackery to propagate the worker's stderr and exceptions to the
client.

Eelco Dolstra e25fad691a * Move addTempRoot() to the store API, and add another function
syncWithGC() to allow clients to register GC roots without needing
  write access to the global roots directory or the GC lock.

Eelco Dolstra a824d58b56 * Merge addToStore and addToStoreFixed.
* addToStore now adds unconditionally, it doesn't use readOnlyMode.
  Read-only operation is up to the caller (who can call
  computeStorePathForPath).

Eelco Dolstra 0565b5f2b3 * More remote operations.
* Added new operation hasSubstitutes(), which is more efficient than
  querySubstitutes().size() > 0.
