Rename "attribute sets" to "sets"
...
We don't have any other kind of sets so calling them attribute sets is
unnecessarily verbose.

* Canonicalise timestamps in the Nix store to 1 (1970-01-01 00:00:01
...
UTC) rather than 0 (00:00:00). 1 is a better choice because some
programs use 0 as a special value. For instance, the Template
Toolkit uses a timestamp of 0 to denote the non-existence of a file,
so it barfs on files in the Nix store (see
template-toolkit-nix-store.patch in Nixpkgs). Similarly, Maya 2008
fails to load script directories with a timestamp of 0 and can't be
patched because it's closed source.
This will also shut up those "implausibly old time stamp" GNU tar
warnings.
