nix3-profile automatically migrates any profile its used on to its style
of profile -- the ones with manifest.json instead of manifest.nix. On
non-NixOS systems, Nix is conventionally installed to the profile at
/nix/var/nix/profiles/default, so if a user passed that to `--profile`
of `nix profile`, then it would break upgrade-nix from ever working
again, without recreating the profile.
This commit fixes that, and allows upgrade-nix to work on either kind of
profile.
Fixes #16.

| using `nix profile` on `/nix/var/nix/profiles/default` no longer breaks `nix upgrade-nix` | 952 |
On non-NixOS, Nix is conventionally installed into a nix-env style profile at /nix/var/nix/profiles/default.
Like any nix-env profile, using nix profile on it automatically migrates it to a nix profile style profile, which is incompatible with nix-env.
nix upgrade-nix previously relied solely on nix-env to do the upgrade, but now will work fine with either kind of profile.
