0173a9ced9 set PATH correctly in ssh sessions
for a non=interactive shell ("ssh linminix foo") ash does not source
*any* startup files, so we need to set this to something more useful
than /bin:usr/bin

b0098f1c8e move min-list-garbage into min-collect-garbage pkg
we don't want it in the same package as min-copy-closure as
that depends on bash

00aeb81811 min-list-garbage: check all store paths against file
this is step 1 of min-collect-garbage, no point implementing
deletion ourselves when rm -r exists

(arguably no point in implementing any of it, but this is the bit we
can't do efficiently in bourne shell - it means we're reading the
store-paths list once instead of grepping it afresh for every entry in
/nix/store/)
