chore(3p/nix): unvendor tvix 0.1 r/4098

Nothing is using this now, and we'll likely never pick this up again,
but we learned a lot in the process.

Every now and then this breaks in some bizarre way on channel bumps
and it's just a waste of time to maintain that.

-<title>Built-in Functions</title>
-
-<para>This section lists the functions and constants built into the
-Nix expression evaluator.  (The built-in function
-<function>derivation</function> is discussed above.)  Some built-ins,
-such as <function>derivation</function>, are always in scope of every
-Nix expression; you can just access them right away.  But to prevent
-polluting the namespace too much, most built-ins are not in scope.
-Instead, you can access them through the <varname>builtins</varname>
-built-in value, which is a set that contains all built-in functions
-and values.  For instance, <function>derivation</function> is also
-available as <function>builtins.derivation</function>.</para>

-
-    <!-- TODO: more formally describe the schema of the XML
-    representation -->
-
-    <para><xref linkend='ex-toxml' /> shows an example where this is
-    the case.  The builder is supposed to generate the configuration
-    file for a <link xlink:href='http://jetty.mortbay.org/'>Jetty
-    servlet container</link>.  A servlet container contains a number
-    of servlets (<filename>*.war</filename> files) each exported under
-    a specific URI prefix.  So the servlet configuration is a list of
-    sets containing the <varname>path</varname> and
-    <varname>war</varname> of the servlet (<xref
-    linkend='ex-toxml-co-servlets' />).  This kind of information is
-    difficult to communicate with the normal method of passing
-    information through an environment variable, which just
-    concatenates everything together into a string (which might just
-    work in this case, but wouldn’t work if fields are optional or
-    contain lists themselves).  Instead the Nix expression is
-    converted to an XML representation with
-    <function>toXML</function>, which is unambiguous and can easily be
-    processed with the appropriate tools.  For instance, in the
-    example an XSLT stylesheet (<xref linkend='ex-toxml-co-stylesheet'
-    />) is applied to it (<xref linkend='ex-toxml-co-apply' />) to
-    generate the XML configuration file for the Jetty server.  The XML
-    representation produced from <xref linkend='ex-toxml-co-servlets'
-    /> by <function>toXML</function> is shown in <xref
-    linkend='ex-toxml-result' />.</para>
-
-    <para>Note that <xref linkend='ex-toxml' /> uses the <function
-    linkend='builtin-toFile'>toFile</function> built-in to write the
-    builder and the stylesheet “inline” in the Nix expression.  The
-    path of the stylesheet is spliced into the builder at
-    <literal>xsltproc ${stylesheet}
-    <replaceable>...</replaceable></literal>.</para>
