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.

-<para>If you are using Linux or macOS, the easiest way to install Nix
-is to run the following command:
-
-<screen>
-  $ sh &lt;(curl https://nixos.org/nix/install)
-</screen>
-
-As of Nix 2.1.0, the Nix installer will always default to creating a
-single-user installation, however opting in to the multi-user
-installation is highly recommended.

-  sh &lt;(curl https://nixos.org/nix/install) --no-daemon

-<para>
-This will perform a single-user installation of Nix, meaning that
-<filename>/nix</filename> is owned by the invoking user.  You should
-run this under your usual user account, <emphasis>not</emphasis> as
-root.  The script will invoke <command>sudo</command> to create
-<filename>/nix</filename> if it doesn’t already exist.  If you don’t
-have <command>sudo</command>, you should manually create
-<command>/nix</command> first as root, e.g.:
-
-<screen>
-$ mkdir /nix
-$ chown alice /nix
-</screen>
-
-The install script will modify the first writable file from amongst
-<filename>.bash_profile</filename>, <filename>.bash_login</filename>
-and <filename>.profile</filename> to source
-<filename>~/.nix-profile/etc/profile.d/nix.sh</filename>. You can set
-the <command>NIX_INSTALLER_NO_MODIFY_PROFILE</command> environment
-variable before executing the install script to disable this
-behaviour.

-    The multi-user installation of Nix will create build users between

-  <para>
-    The installer will modify <filename>/etc/bashrc</filename>, and

-    You can also download a binary tarball that contains Nix and all
-    its dependencies.  (This is what the install script at
-    <uri>https://nixos.org/nix/install</uri> does automatically.)  You
-    should unpack it somewhere (e.g. in <filename>/tmp</filename>),
-    and then run the script named <command>install</command> inside
-    the binary tarball:
-
-
-<screen>
-alice$ cd /tmp
