* Export the nix-env derivation name parsing and version comparison

  logic through the `parseDrvName' and `compareVersions' primops.
  This will allow expressions to easily check whether some dependency
  is a specific needed version or falls in some version range.  See
  tests/lang/eval-okay-versions.nix for examples.
