StorePathCommands: Build installables
So for instance "nix copy --to ... nixpkgs.hello" will build
nixpkgs.hello first. It's debatable whether this is a good idea. It
seems desirable for commands like "nix copy" but maybe not for
commands like "nix path-info".

Set default installable
Thus

  $ nix build -f foo.nix

will build foo.nix.

And

  $ nix build

will build default.nix. However, this may not be a good idea because
it's kind of inconsistent, given that "nix build foo" will build the
"foo" attribute from the default installation source (i.e. the
synthesis of $NIX_PATH), rather than ./default.nix. So I may revert
this.

Interpret any installable containing a slash as a path
So "nix path-info ./result" now works.

Make StorePathsCommand a subclass of InstallablesCommand
This allows commands like 'nix path-info', 'nix copy', 'nix verify'
etc. to work on arbitrary installables. E.g. to copy geeqie to a
binary cache:

  $ nix copy -r --to file:///tmp/binary-cache nixpkgs.geeqie

Or to get the closure size of thunderbird:

  $ nix path-info -S nixpkgs.thunderbird

Add "nix eval" command
This replaces "nix-instantiate --eval". The result is evaluated
strictly since this seems more useful.

Drop misleading ellipses
This portion of the quick start guide may lead to confusion for
newcomers to Nix.  This change clarifies the example to one that can be

getDerivations(): Filter out packages with bad derivation names
In particular, this disallows attribute names containing dots or
starting with dots. Hydra already disallowed these. This affects the
following packages in Nixpkgs master:

  2048-in-terminal
  2bwm
  389-ds-base
  90secondportraits
  lispPackages.3bmd
  lispPackages.hu.dwim.asdf
  lispPackages.hu.dwim.def

Closes #1342.
