* Strings in the evaluator carry a so-called `context` which
* is a list of strings representing store paths. This is to
* allow users to write things like
*
* "--with-freetype2-library=" + freetype + "/lib"
*
* where `freetype` is a derivation (or a source to be copied
* to the store). If we just concatenated the strings without
* keeping track of the referenced store paths, then if the
* string is used as a derivation attribute, the derivation
* will not have the correct dependencies in its inputDrvs and
* inputSrcs.
* The semantics of the context is as follows: when a string
* with context C is used as a derivation attribute, then the
* derivations in C will be added to the inputDrvs of the
* derivation, and the other store paths in C will be added to
* the inputSrcs of the derivations.
* For canonicity, the store paths should be in sorted order.
