regnat 04b113f6cb Fix nix log with CA derivations
Fix 

When trying to run `nix log <installable>`, try first to resolve the derivation pointed to
by `<installable>` as it is the resolved one that holds the build log.

This has a couple of shortcomings:
1. It’s expensive as it requires re-reading the derivation
2. It’s brittle because if the derivation doesn’t exist anymore or can’t
   be resolved (which is the case if any one of its build inputs is missing),
   then we can’t access the log anymore

However, I don’t think we can do better (at least not right now).
The alternatives I see are:
1. Copy the build log for the un-resolved derivation. But that means a
   lot of duplication
2. Store the results of the resolving in the db. Which might be the best
   long-term solution, but leads to a whole new class of potential
   issues.

John Ericson 5b42e5b177 Restore now-working build-remote-content-addressed-fixed test
This was

 - Added in dbf96e10ec.

 - Commented out in 07975979aa, which I
   believe only reached master by mistake.

 - Deleted in c32168c9bc, when
   `tests/build-hook-ca.nix` was reused for a new test.

But the test works, and we ought to have it.
