Image layers in manifests are now sorted in a stable (descending)
order based on their merge rating, meaning that layers more likely to
be shared between images come first.
The reason for this change is Docker's handling of image layers on
overlayfs2: Images are condensed into a single representation on disk
after downloading.
Due to this Docker will constantly redownload all layers that are
applied in a different order in different images (layer order matters
in imperatively created images), based on something it calls the
'ChainID'.
Sorting the layers this way raises the likelihood of a long chain of
matching layers at the beginning of an image.
This relates to #39.
MD5 hash checking is no longer performed by Nixery (it does not seem
to be necessary), hence the layer cache now only keeps the SHA256 hash
and size in the form of the manifest entry.
This makes it possible to restructure the builder code to perform
cache-fetching and cache-populating for layers in the same place.
The new manifest package creates image manifests and their
configuration. This previously happened in Nix, but is now part of the
server's workload.
This relates to #50.
