Eelco Dolstra 5591fcc529 * Cache the manifests in /nix/var/nix/manifests in a SQLite database. 
This significantly speeds up the download-using-manifests
  substituter, especially if manifests are very large.  For instance,
  one "nix-build -A geeqie" operation that updated four packages using
  binary patches went from 18.5s to 1.6s.  It also significantly
  reduces memory use.

  The cache is kept in /nix/var/nix/manifests/cache.sqlite.  It's
  updated automatically when manifests are added to or removed from
  /nix/var/nix/manifests.  It might be interesting to have nix-pull
  store manifests directly in the DB, rather than storing them as
  separate flat files, but then we would need a command line interface
  to delete manifests from the DB.
