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>Security</title>

-<para>Nix has two basic security models.  First, it can be used in
-“single-user mode”, which is similar to what most other package
-management tools do: there is a single user (typically <systemitem
-class="username">root</systemitem>) who performs all package
-management operations.  All other users can then use the installed
-packages, but they cannot perform package management operations
-themselves.</para>
-
-<para>Alternatively, you can configure Nix in “multi-user mode”.  In
-this model, all users can perform package management operations — for
-instance, every user can install software without requiring root
-privileges.  Nix ensures that this is secure.  For instance, it’s not
-possible for one user to overwrite a package used by another user with
-a Trojan horse.</para>
