Add an option "--exclude" to filter dependencies in "nix-build --run-env"
Sometimes when doing "nix-build --run-env" you don't want all
dependencies to be built.  For instance, if we want to do "--run-env"
on the "build" attribute in Hydra's release.nix (to get Hydra's build
environment), we don't want its "tarball" dependency to be built.  So
we can do:

  $ nix-build --run-env release.nix -A build --exclude 'hydra-tarball'

This will skip the dependency whose name matches the "hydra-tarball"
regular expression.  The "--exclude" option can be repeated any number
of times.
