Qyriad 18ac6545fc print type and value in "flake attr is not a derivation" errors 
This turns errors like:

error: flake output attribute 'hydraJobs' is not a derivation or path

into errors like:

error: expected flake output attribute 'hydraJobs' to be a derivation or
path but found a set: { binaryTarball = «thunk»; build = «thunk»; etc> }

This change affects all InstallableFlake commands.
