jade dcc7ea5498 release notes: add a bunch of them 
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.

Improvements

The REPL printer has been improved to do the following:

  • If a string is passed to :print, it is printed literally to the screen
  • Structures will be printed as multiple lines when necessary

Before:

nix-repl> { attrs = { a = { b = { c = { }; }; }; }; list = [ 1 ]; list' = [ 1 2 3 ]; }
{ attrs = { ... }; list = [ ... ]; list' = [ ... ]; }

nix-repl> :p { attrs = { a = { b = { c = { }; }; }; }; list = [ 1 ]; list' = [ 1 2 3 ]; }
{ attrs = { a = { b = { c = { }; }; }; }; list = [ 1 ]; list' = [ 1 2 3 ]; }

nix-repl> :p "meow"
"meow"

After:

nix-repl> { attrs = { a = { b = { c = { }; }; }; }; list = [ 1 ]; list' = [ 1 2 3 ]; }
{
  attrs = { ... };
  list = [ ... ];
  list' = [ ... ];
}

nix-repl> :p { attrs = { a = { b = { c = { }; }; }; }; list = [ 1 ]; list' = [ 1 2 3 ]; }
{
  attrs = {
    a = {
      b = {
        c = { };
      };
    };
  };
  list = [ 1 ];
  list' = [
    1
    2
    3
  ];
}

nix-repl> :p "meow"
meow
