8160f794e7 derivation: Don't require certain function arguments
Turns out that in Nixpkgs, derivation is actually called without a
‘name’ argument in some places :-(

58204a3c39 corepkgs/nar.nix: Prefer local builds
nar.nix's builder depends on coreutils and nix itself being in $PATH.
Unfortunately, there's no good way to ensure that these packages exist
in the same place on the remote machine: The local machine may have nix
installed in /usr, and the remote machine in /usr/local, but the
generated nar.sh builder will refer to /usr and thus fail on the remote
machine. This ensures that nar.sh is run on the same machine that
instantiates it.

7cf539c728 buildenv: remove special treatment of python files
buildPythonPackage does not leave easy_install.pth and site.py
anymore. A python package that leaves these files is broken. An
exception to this is setuptoolsSite which packages setuptools'
site.py. To include it into a buildenv, this patch is even needed, not
just cosmetic.

5ad89398d1 nix-env: Install all outputs of a derivation

46a369ad95 Make "nix-build -A <derivation>.<output>" do the right thing
For example, given a derivation with outputs "out", "man" and "bin":

  $ nix-build -A pkg

produces ./result pointing to the "out" output;

  $ nix-build -A pkg.man

produces ./result-man pointing to the "man" output;

  $ nix-build -A pkg.all

produces ./result, ./result-man and ./result-bin;

  $ nix-build -A pkg.all -A pkg2

produces ./result, ./result-man, ./result-bin and ./result-2.

5170c5691a nix-channel: Use binary caches advertised by channels
Channels can now advertise a binary cache by creating a file
<channel-url>/binary-cache-url.  The channel unpacker puts these in
its "binary-caches" subdirectory.  Thus, the URLS of the binary caches
for the channels added by root appear in
/nix/var/nix/profiles/per-user/eelco/channels/binary-caches/*.  The
binary cache substituter reads these and adds them to the list of
binary caches.

b1112bbef1 import: If the path is a valid .drv file, parse it and generate a derivation attrset.
The generated attrset has drvPath and outPath with the right string context, type 'derivation', outputName with
the right name, all with a list of outputs, and an attribute for each output.

I see three uses for this (though certainly there may be more):

* Using derivations generated by something besides nix-instantiate (e.g. guix)

* Allowing packages provided by channels to be used in nix expressions. If a channel installed a valid deriver
  for each package it provides into the store, then those could be imported and used as dependencies or installed
  in environment.systemPackages, for example.

* Enable hydra to be consistent in how it treats inputs that are outputs of another build. Right now, if an
  input is passed as an argument to the job, it is passed as a derivation, but if it is accessed via NIX_PATH
  (i.e. through the <> syntax), then it is a path that can be imported. This is problematic because the build
  being depended upon may have been built with non-obvious arguments passed to its jobset file. With this
  feature, hydra can just set the name of that input to the path to its drv file in NIX_PATH

4911a10a4e Use XZ compression in binary caches
XZ compresses significantly better than bzip2.  Here are the
compression ratios and execution times (using 4 cores in parallel) on
my /var/run/current-system (3.1 GiB):

  bzip2: total compressed size 849.56 MiB, 30.8% [2m08]
  xz -6: total compressed size 641.84 MiB, 23.4% [6m53]
  xz -7: total compressed size 621.82 MiB, 22.6% [7m19]
  xz -8: total compressed size 599.33 MiB, 21.8% [7m18]
  xz -9: total compressed size 588.18 MiB, 21.4% [7m40]

Note that compression takes much longer.  More importantly, however,
decompression is much faster:

  bzip2: 1m47.274s
  xz -6: 0m55.446s
  xz -7: 0m54.119s
  xz -8: 0m52.388s
  xz -9: 0m51.842s

The only downside to using -9 is that decompression takes a fair
amount (~65 MB) of memory.

663c06e8cd Disable building in chroot for Nix's corepkgs
The dependencies of the corepkgs are not necessarily in the chroot (or
in the Nix store), so don't build them in a chroot.
