Eelco Dolstra ca8caaec5e nix: Add --expr flag
This replaces the '(...)' installable syntax, which is not very
discoverable. The downside is that you can't have multiple expressions
or mix expressions and other installables.

nix eval --raw: Use coerceToString()
Thus,

  $ nix eval --raw '("foo")'
  foo

  $ nix eval --raw nixpkgs.hello
  /nix/store/1y6ckg6khrdsvll54s5spcmf3w6ka9k4-hello-2.10

  $ nix eval --raw '(/etc/resolv.conf)'
  /nix/store/vml92ama92i8mz013nny461mlvg8mvap-resolv.conf

nix eval: Add a --raw flag
Similar to "jq -r", this prints the evaluation result (which must be a
string value) unquoted.

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