Building derivations is a lot harder, but the downloading goals is
portable enough.
The "common channel" code is due to Volth. I wonder if there is a way we
can factor it out into separate functions / files to avoid some
within-function CPP.

At this point many features are stripped out, but this works:
- Can run libnix{util,store,expr} unit tests
- Can run some Nix commands

To avoid dealing with an optional `drvPath` (because we might not know
it yet) everywhere, make an `CreateDerivationAndRealiseGoal`. This goal
just builds/substitutes the derivation file, and then kicks of a build
for that obtained derivation; in other words it does the chaining of
goals when the drv file is missing (as can already be the case) or
computed (new case).
This also means the `getDerivation` state can be removed from
`DerivationGoal`, which makes the `BasicDerivation` / in memory case and
`Derivation` / drv file file case closer together.
The map type is factored out for clarity, and because we will soon hvae
a second use for it (`Derivation` itself).

* Finish converting existing comments for internal API docs
99% of this was just reformatting existing comments. Only two exceptions:
- Expanded upon `BuildResult::status` compat note
- Split up file-level `symbol-table.hh` doc comments to get
per-definition docs
Also fixed a few whitespace goofs, turning leading tabs to spaces and
removing trailing spaces.
Picking up from #8133
* Fix two things from comments
* Use triple-backtick not indent for `dumpPath`
* Convert GNU-style `\`..'` quotes to markdown style in API docs
This will render correctly.
The curl download can outlive DrvOutputSubstitutionGoal (if some other
error occurs), so at shutdown setting the promise to an exception will
fail because 'this' is no longer valid in the callback. This can
manifest itself as a segfault, "corrupted double-linked list" or hang.
