Basically I'd expect the same behavior as with `nix-build`, i.e.
with `--keep-going` the hash-mismatch error of each failing
fixed-output derivation is shown.
The approach is derived from `Store::buildPaths` (`entry-point.cc`):
instead of throwing the first build-result, check if there are any build
errors and if so, display all of them and throw after that.
Unfortunately, the BuildResult struct doesn't have an `ErrorInfo`
(there's a FIXME for that at least), so I have to construct my own here.
This is a rather cheap bugfix and I decided against touching too many
parts of libstore for that (also I don't know if that's in line with the
ongoing refactoring work).

On several occasions I've found myself confused when trying to delete
a store path, because I am told it's still alive, but
nix-store --query --roots doesn't show anything. Let's save future
users this confusion by mentioning that a path might be alive due to
having referrers, not just roots.
In addition:
- Take the opportunity to add a bunch more missing hyperlinks, too.
- Remove some glossary entries that are now subsumed by dedicated pages.
We used to not be able to do this without breaking link fragments, but
now we can, so pick up where we left off.

- add links to definitions of terms
- one sentence per line
- be more specific about which store is used for the import
- clearly distinguish store paths and store objects
- make a recommendation to use `nix-copy-closure` for efficient SSH transfers

use -P, which only considers executables but not shell builtins

previously the test directory could have been left untouched before executing
a test when `init.sh` was not run - and sometimes it isn't
supposed to be run - which made the test suite highly stateful and thus
behaving surprisingly on multiple runs.
pararameterisation is not actually needed the way things are currently
set up, and it confused me when trying to understand what the code does.
all but one test sources vars-and-functions.sh, which nominally only
defines variables, but in practice is always coupled with the actual
initialisation. while the cleaner way of making this more legible would
be to source variables and initialisation separately, this would produce
a huge diff.
the change requires a few small fixes to keep the tests working:
- only create test home directory during initialisation
that vars-and-functions.sh wrote to the file system seems not write
- fix creation of the test directory
due to statefulness, the test home directory was implicitly creating
the test root, too. decoupling that made it apparent that this was
probably not intentional, and certainly confusing.
- only source vars-and-functions.sh if init.sh is not needed
there is one test case that only needs a helper function but no
initialisation side effects
- remove some unnecessary cleanups and split parts of re-used test code
there were confusing bits in how initialisation code was repurposed,
which break if trying to refactor the outer layers naively...

the old `copyFile` was just a wrapper that was calling the `copy`
function. This wrapper function is removed and the `copy` function is
renamed to `copyFile`.
