This prevents a double allocation per attribute set.

Nix search path lookups like <nixpkgs> are now desugared to ‘findFile
nixPath <nixpkgs>’, where ‘findFile’ is a new primop. Thus you can
override the search path simply by saying
let
nixPath = [ { prefix = "nixpkgs"; path = "/my-nixpkgs"; } ];
in ... <nixpkgs> ...
In conjunction with ‘scopedImport’ (commit
c273c15cb13bb86420dda1e5341a4e19517532b5), the Nix search path can be
propagated across imports, e.g.
let
overrides = {
nixPath = [ ... ] ++ builtins.nixPath;
import = fn: scopedImport overrides fn;
scopedImport = attrs: fn: scopedImport (overrides // attrs) fn;
builtins = builtins // overrides;
};
in scopedImport overrides ./nixos

Also fixes #261.

Fixes #121. Note that we don't warn about missing $NIX_PATH entries
because it's intended that some may be missing (cf. the default
$NIX_PATH on NixOS, which includes paths like /etc/nixos/nixpkgs for
backward compatibility).

This fixes the error message
error: file `' was not found in the Nix search path (add it using $NIX_PATH or -I)
|

and nix-env, e.g.,
$ nix-env -f '<nixpkgs>' -i patchelf
or
$ nix-build '<nixos/tests>' -A login.test

brackets, e.g.
import <nixpkgs/pkgs/lib>
are resolved by looking them up relative to the elements listed in
the search path. This allows us to get rid of hacks like
import "${builtins.getEnv "NIXPKGS_ALL"}/pkgs/lib"
The search path can be specified through the ‘-I’ command-line flag
and through the colon-separated ‘NIX_PATH’ environment variable,
e.g.,
$ nix-build -I /etc/nixos ...
If a file is not found in the search path, an error message is
lazily thrown.

* Change the behaviour of listToAttrs() in case of duplicate names.

a pointer to a Value, rather than the Value directly. This improves
the effectiveness of garbage collection a lot: if the Value is
stored inside the set directly, then any live pointer to the Value
causes all other attributes in the set to be live as well.

efficiently. The symbol table ensures that there is only one copy
of each symbol, thus allowing symbols to be compared efficiently
using a pointer equality test.
