* Get rid of identifiers since they are redundant now. This greatly

simplifies stuff.
* The format of Nix expressions and the database schema changed
because of this, so it's best to delete old Nix installations.

* Remove write permission from output paths after they have been built.
...
* Point $HOME to a non-existing path when building to prevent certain tools (such as
wget) from falling back on /etc/passwd to locate the home directory (which we
don't want them to look at since it's not declared as an input).

* Use maps and sets in the FState data type. This ensures normalisation of

slices and derivations w.r.t. order of paths, slice elements, etc.

* Change the abstract syntax of slices. It used to be that ids were used as
...
keys to reference slice elements, e.g.,
Slice(["1ef7..."], [("/nix/store/1ef7...-foo", "1ef7", ["8c99..."]), ...])
This was wrong, since ids represent contents, not locations. Therefore we
now have:
Slice(["/nix/store/1ef7..."], [("/nix/store/1ef7...-foo", "1ef7", ["/nix/store/8c99-..."]), ...])
* Fix a bug in the computation of slice closures that could cause slice
elements to be duplicated.

* Allow lists in package bindings, e.g.,
...
("srcs", [Relative("foo/bar.c"), Relative("foo/baz.h")])
The result is an environment variable that contains the path names of the
inputs separated by spaces (so this is not safe for values containing
spaces).

when PATH is not set. We don't want this, so fill it in with
some dummy value.

* Argument support in Fix. Arguments can be passed through the

builder using the `args' binding:
("args", ["bla", True, IncludeFix("aterm/aterm.fix")])
Note that packages can also be declared as inputs by specifying them
in the argument list.

hashes to change.

* deletePath(): some operating systems (e.g., Mac OS X) don't like it

when we delete entries from a directory while we are reading it.
So read the directory into memory, then delete its contents.

* Allow locks on paths to be acquired recursively (that is, if the
...
process is already holding a lock on a path, it may acquire the lock
again without blocking or failing). (This might be dangerous, not
sure). Necessary for fast builds to work.

* In normaliseFState(), wrap registration of the output paths and the

normal form in a single transaction to ensure that if we crash,
either everything is registered or nothing is. This is for
recoverability: unregistered paths in the store can be deleted
arbitrarily, while registered paths can only be deleted by running
the garbage collector.
