Nix, the purely functional package manager

Luke Granger-Brown 2239953894 When moving paths out of sandbox, ensure we have write permission.
If we're a single-user installation of Nix, then we won't have root
superpowers to just ignore the permission bits. This means that we'll
need permission on the directory (if it's a directory) that we're moving
in order to move it with rename, because it must update the ".."
directory entry.

Fixes #4295.

This is already working in master, thanks to
e913a2989f (and followup cleanups).

Nix, the purely functional package manager

Nix is a new take on package management that is fairly unique. Because of its purity aspects, a lot of issues found in traditional package managers don't appear with Nix.

To find out more about the tool, usage and installation instructions, please read the manual, which is available on the Nix website at https://nixos.org/nix/manual.
