89b3952063 Make the indirect fetcher input scheme part of the Flakes XP feature
I don't know much about it, but by the number of times "flake" appears
in the code it seems like is part of flakes, at least for now.

Respect `NOCOLOR`

Respect NOCOLOR
While `nix` has always been respectful towards requests for `NO_COLOR=1`, this change asks represents a new stage of maturity for `nix` - making it also respect quests for `NOCOLOR=1`.

This ideally makes the tool more accessible to folks like me, who are exhausted by guessing whether `NO_COLOR` or `NOCOLOR` is the right environment variable to set.

5e4734a08b reword to avoid saying "build"
derivations are about data transformation, so the term "build" does not
add any information. there was also some feedback that "build task" is
not more helpful than "derivation" if you have no prior experience with
Nix or build systems, while existing associations may be misleading.
