* Start of `nix-store --export' operation for serialising a store

  path.  This is like `nix-store --dump', only it also dumps the
  meta-information of the store path (references, deriver).  Will add
  a `--sign' flag later to add a cryptographic signature, which we
  will use for exchanging store paths between build farm machines in a
  secure manner.
