nix: Make all options available as flags
Thus, instead of ‘--option <name> <value>’, you can write ‘--<name>
<value>’. So

  --option http-connections 100

becomes

  --http-connections 100

Apart from brevity, the difference is that it's not an error to set a
non-existent option via --option, but unrecognized arguments are
fatal.

Boolean options have special treatment: they're mapped to the
argument-less flags ‘--<name>’ and ‘--no-<name>’. E.g.

  --option auto-optimise-store false

becomes

  --no-auto-optimise-store

Replace readline by linenoise
Using linenoise avoids a license compatibility issue (#1356), is a lot
smaller and doesn't pull in ncurses.

Add "nix edit" command
This is a little convenience command that opens the Nix expression of
the specified package. For example,

  nix edit nixpkgs.perlPackages.Moose

opens <nixpkgs/pkgs/top-level/perl-packages.nix> in $EDITOR (at the
right line number for some editors).

This requires the package to have a meta.position attribute.

nix dump-path: Add
This is primarily useful for extracting NARs from other stores (like
binary caches), which "nix-store --dump" cannot do.

StorePathCommands: Build installables
So for instance "nix copy --to ... nixpkgs.hello" will build
nixpkgs.hello first. It's debatable whether this is a good idea. It
seems desirable for commands like "nix copy" but maybe not for
commands like "nix path-info".

Set default installable
Thus

  $ nix build -f foo.nix

will build foo.nix.

And

  $ nix build

will build default.nix. However, this may not be a good idea because
it's kind of inconsistent, given that "nix build foo" will build the
"foo" attribute from the default installation source (i.e. the
synthesis of $NIX_PATH), rather than ./default.nix. So I may revert
this.

Make StorePathsCommand a subclass of InstallablesCommand
This allows commands like 'nix path-info', 'nix copy', 'nix verify'
etc. to work on arbitrary installables. E.g. to copy geeqie to a
binary cache:

  $ nix copy -r --to file:///tmp/binary-cache nixpkgs.geeqie

Or to get the closure size of thunderbird:

  $ nix path-info -S nixpkgs.thunderbird

exportReferencesGraph: Export more complete info in JSON format
This writes info about every path in the closure in the same format as
‘nix path-info --json’. Thus it also includes NAR hashes and sizes.

Example:

  [
    {
      "path": "/nix/store/10h6li26i7g6z3mdpvra09yyf10mmzdr-hello-2.10",
      "narHash": "sha256:0ckdc4z20kkmpqdilx0wl6cricxv90lh85xpv2qljppcmz6vzcxl",
      "narSize": 197648,
      "references": [
        "/nix/store/10h6li26i7g6z3mdpvra09yyf10mmzdr-hello-2.10",
        "/nix/store/27binbdy296qvjycdgr1535v8872vz3z-glibc-2.24"
      ],
      "closureSize": 20939776
    },
    {
      "path": "/nix/store/27binbdy296qvjycdgr1535v8872vz3z-glibc-2.24",
      "narHash": "sha256:1nfn3m3p98y1c0kd0brp80dn9n5mycwgrk183j17rajya0h7gax3",
      "narSize": 20742128,
      "references": [
        "/nix/store/27binbdy296qvjycdgr1535v8872vz3z-glibc-2.24"
      ],
      "closureSize": 20742128
    }
  ]

Fixes #1134.

d74236d1f2 nix build: Use Nix search path
That is, unless --file is specified, the Nix search path is
synthesized into an attribute set. Thus you can say

  $ nix build nixpkgs.hello

assuming $NIX_PATH contains an entry of the form "nixpkgs=...". This
is more verbose than

  $ nix build hello

but is less ambiguous.

This is a convenience command to allow users who are not privileged to
create /nix/store to use Nix with regular binary caches. For example,

  $ NIX_REMOTE="local?state=$HOME/nix/var&real=/$HOME/nix/store" nix run firefox bashInteractive

will download Firefox and bash from cache.nixos.org, then start a
shell in which $HOME/nix/store is mounted on /nix/store.
