Add flake evaluation cache
This exploits the hermetic nature of flake evaluation to speed up
repeated evaluations of a flake output attribute.

For example (doing 'nix build' on an already present package):

  $ time nix build nixpkgs:firefox

  real    0m1.497s
  user    0m1.160s
  sys     0m0.139s

  $ time nix build nixpkgs:firefox

  real    0m0.052s
  user    0m0.038s
  sys     0m0.007s

The cache is ~/.cache/nix/eval-cache-v1.sqlite, which has entries like

  INSERT INTO Attributes VALUES(
    X'92a907d4efe933af2a46959b082cdff176aa5bfeb47a98fabd234809a67ab195',
    'packages.firefox',
    1,
    '/nix/store/pbalzf8x19hckr8cwdv62rd6g0lqgc38-firefox-67.0.drv /nix/store/g6q0gx0v6xvdnizp8lrcw7c4gdkzana0-firefox-67.0 out');

where the hash 92a9... is a fingerprint over the flake store path and
the contents of the lockfile. Because flakes are evaluated in pure
mode, this uniquely identifies the evaluation result.

Use boost::format from the boost package
Note that this only requires headers from boost so it doesn't add a
runtime dependency.

Also, use Nixpkgs 18.03.

Eelco Dolstra 451ebf24ce Cache path info lookups in SQLite
This re-implements the binary cache database in C++, allowing it to be
used by other Store backends, in particular the S3 backend.
