John Ericson 30dcc19d1f Put functional tests in tests/functional
I think it is bad for these reasons when `tests/` contains a mix of
functional and integration tests

 - Concepts is harder to understand, the documentation makes a good
   unit vs functional vs integration distinction, but when the
   integration tests are just two subdirs within `tests/` this is not
   clear.

 - Source filtering in the `flake.nix` is more complex. We need to
   filter out some of the dirs from `tests/`, rather than simply pick
   the dirs we want and take all of them. This is a good sign the
   structure of what we are trying to do is not matching the structure
   of the files.

With this change we have a clean:
```shell-session
$ git show 'HEAD:tests'
tree HEAD:tests

functional/
installer/
nixos/
```

regnat addacfce4a Allow running all the tests with the daemon
When `NIX_DAEMON_PACKAGE` is set, make all the tests use the Nix daemon.
That way we can test every piece of Nix functionality both with and
without the daemon.

Tests for which using the daemon isn’t possible or doesn’t make sens can
selectively be disabled with `needLocalStore`
