Almost all other primops are camelCase so no reason not to use that
here.

Add automatic garbage collection
Nix can now automatically run the garbage collector during builds or
while adding paths to the store. The option "min-free = <bytes>"
specifies that Nix should run the garbage collector whenever free
space in the Nix store drops below <bytes>. It will then delete
garbage until "max-free" bytes are available.

Garbage collection during builds is asynchronous; running builds are
not paused and new builds are not blocked. However, there also is a
synchronous GC run prior to the first build/substitution.

Currently, no old GC roots are deleted (as in "nix-collect-garbage
-d").

This removes the file nix-mode.el from Nix. The file is now available within the
repository https://github.com/NixOS/nix-mode.

Fixes #662

NOTE: all of the above should be fixed within NixOS/nix-mode. If one of those
hasn’t please reopen within NixOS/nix-mode and not within NixOS/nix.

Move note about float support out of the wrong release notes
Looks like this snuck into the 1.11 release notes post-release, but
float support isn't actually present until 1.12.
