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.

-  <listitem>
-    <para>Nix no longer uses Berkeley DB to store Nix store metadata.
-    The principal advantages of the new storage scheme are: it works
-    properly over decent implementations of NFS (allowing Nix stores
-    to be shared between multiple machines); no recovery is needed
-    when a Nix process crashes; no write access is needed for
-    read-only operations; no more running out of Berkeley DB locks on
-    certain operations.</para>
-
-    <para>You still need to compile Nix with Berkeley DB support if
-    you want Nix to automatically convert your old Nix store to the
-    new schema.  If you don’t need this, you can build Nix with the
-    <filename>configure</filename> option
-    <option>--disable-old-db-compat</option>.</para>
-
-    <para>After the automatic conversion to the new schema, you can
-    delete the old Berkeley DB files:
-
-    <screen>
-$ cd /nix/var/nix/db
-$ rm __db* log.* derivers references referrers reserved validpaths DB_CONFIG</screen>
-
-    The new metadata is stored in the directories
-    <filename>/nix/var/nix/db/info</filename> and
-    <filename>/nix/var/nix/db/referrer</filename>.  Though the
-    metadata is stored in human-readable plain-text files, they are
-    not intended to be human-editable, as Nix is rather strict about
-    the format.</para>
-
-    <para>The new storage schema may or may not require less disk
-    space than the Berkeley DB environment, mostly depending on the
-    cluster size of your file system.  With 1 KiB clusters (which
-    seems to be the <literal>ext3</literal> default nowadays) it
-    usually takes up much less space.</para>
-  </listitem>
-
-  <listitem><para>There is a new substituter that copies paths
-  directly from other (remote) Nix stores mounted somewhere in the
-  filesystem.  For instance, you can speed up an installation by
-  mounting some remote Nix store that already has the packages in
-  question via NFS or <literal>sshfs</literal>.  The environment
-  variable <envar>NIX_OTHER_STORES</envar> specifies the locations of
-  the remote Nix directories,
-  e.g. <literal>/mnt/remote-fs/nix</literal>.</para></listitem>
-
-  <listitem><para>New <command>nix-store</command> operations
-  <option>--dump-db</option> and <option>--load-db</option> to dump
-  and reload the Nix database.</para></listitem>
-
-  <listitem><para>The garbage collector has a number of new options to
-  allow only some of the garbage to be deleted.  The option
-  <option>--max-freed <replaceable>N</replaceable></option> tells the
-  collector to stop after at least <replaceable>N</replaceable> bytes
-  have been deleted.  The option <option>--max-links
-  <replaceable>N</replaceable></option> tells it to stop after the
-  link count on <filename>/nix/store</filename> has dropped below
-  <replaceable>N</replaceable>.  This is useful for very large Nix
-  stores on filesystems with a 32000 subdirectories limit (like
-  <literal>ext3</literal>).  The option <option>--use-atime</option>
-  causes store paths to be deleted in order of ascending last access
-  time.  This allows non-recently used stuff to be deleted.  The
-  option <option>--max-atime <replaceable>time</replaceable></option>
-  specifies an upper limit to the last accessed time of paths that may
-  be deleted.  For instance,
-
-    <screen>
-    $ nix-store --gc -v --max-atime $(date +%s -d "2 months ago")</screen>
-
-  deletes everything that hasn’t been accessed in two months.</para></listitem>
-
-  <listitem><para><command>nix-env</command> now uses optimistic
-  profile locking when performing an operation like installing or
-  upgrading, instead of setting an exclusive lock on the profile.
-  This allows multiple <command>nix-env -i / -u / -e</command>
-  operations on the same profile in parallel.  If a
-  <command>nix-env</command> operation sees at the end that the profile
-  was changed in the meantime by another process, it will just
-  restart.  This is generally cheap because the build results are
-  still in the Nix store.</para></listitem>
-
-  <listitem><para>The option <option>--dry-run</option> is now
-  supported by <command>nix-store -r</command> and
-  <command>nix-build</command>.</para></listitem>
-
-  <listitem><para>The information previously shown by
-  <option>--dry-run</option> (i.e., which derivations will be built
-  and which paths will be substituted) is now always shown by
-  <command>nix-env</command>, <command>nix-store -r</command> and
-  <command>nix-build</command>.  The total download size of
-  substitutable paths is now also shown.  For instance, a build will
-  show something like
-
-    <screen>
-the following derivations will be built:
-  /nix/store/129sbxnk5n466zg6r1qmq1xjv9zymyy7-activate-configuration.sh.drv
-  /nix/store/7mzy971rdm8l566ch8hgxaf89x7lr7ik-upstart-jobs.drv
-  ...
-the following paths will be downloaded/copied (30.02 MiB):
-  /nix/store/4m8pvgy2dcjgppf5b4cj5l6wyshjhalj-samba-3.2.4

-
-      <listitem><para>“<literal>...</literal>” (ellipsis) patterns.
-      An attribute set pattern can now say <literal>...</literal>  at
-      the end of the attribute name list to specify that the function
-      takes <emphasis>at least</emphasis> the listed attributes, while
-      ignoring additional attributes.  For instance,
-
-      <programlisting>{stdenv, fetchurl, fuse, ...}: <replaceable>...</replaceable></programlisting>
