3070d88051 feat(nix): Return structured errors if packages are not found
Changes the return format of Nixery's build procedure to return a JSON
structure that can indicate which errors have occured.

The server can use this information to send appropriate status codes
back to clients.

2db92243e7 feat(nix): Support package set imports from different sources
This extends the package set import mechanism in
build-registry-image.nix with several different options:

1. Importing a nixpkgs channel from Github (the default, pinned to
   nixos-19.03)

2. Importing a custom Nix git repository. This uses builtins.fetchGit
   and can thus rely on git/SSH configuration in the environment (such
   as keys)

3. Importing a local filesystem path

As long as the repository pointed at is either a checkout of nixpkgs,
or nixpkgs overlaid with custom packages this will work.

A special syntax has been defined for how these three options are
passed in, but users should not need to concern themselves with it as
it will be taken care of by the server component.

This relates to #3.

2e4b1f85ee fix(nix): Add empty image config to allow k8s usage
Introduce an empty runtime configuration object in each built layer.

This is required because Kubernetes expects the configuration to be
present (even if it's just empty values).

Providing an empty configuration will make Docker's API return a full
configuration struct with default (i.e. empty) values rather than
`null`, which works for Kubernetes.

This fixes issue #1. See the issue for additional details.

6dd0ac3189 feat(nix): Import nixpkgs from a configured Nix channel
Instead of using whatever the current system default is, import a Nix
channel when building an image.

This will use Nix' internal caching behaviour for tarballs fetched
without a SHA-hash.

For now the downloaded channel is pinned to nixos-19.03.
