Eelco Dolstra a824d58b56 * Merge addToStore and addToStoreFixed.
* addToStore now adds unconditionally, it doesn't use readOnlyMode.
  Read-only operation is up to the caller (who can call
  computeStorePathForPath).

bogus references. If there are too many references, the path may
not be garbage collected when it has to be (not really a problem,
the caller could create a root anyway), or it may be garbage
collected when it shouldn't be (more serious).
Hashing the references would solve this (bogus references would
simply yield a different store path, so other users wouldn't be
affected), but it has some backwards compatibility issues (the
hashing scheme changes), so I'm not doing that for now. */
