I was getting confused about what is a product and what is internal
infrastructure; I think it is good to keep those things separate. So I moved a
bunch of stuff to an Omni namespace, actually most stuff went there. Only things
that are explicitly external products are still in the Biz namespace.

This change was motivated by my testing of tabbyAPI. I kept doing like
`nix-build -A pkgs.tabbyAPI` and I thought, can't bild just do this? So I wrote
a file called TabbyAPI.nix with the following contents::
{ bild }: bild.pkgs.tabbyAPI
and it worked, I just needed this change to Bild.hs to supply the `bild`
argument. The benefit of using bild here is that I can get the logging,
concurrency settings, and linking to _/nix etc all by default. Plus, using a
standalone nix file like TabbyAPI.nix might be a good way to pin some package
in the build system and make sure it continues to build, test, and so on.
Also, thie means I don't sprinkle relative paths to the Bild.nix library
throughout the repo, which is bad practice anyway.
Re: explicitly exposing refernces to stable: This keeps things a bit more tidy
and less confusing when working on the nix library.

This patch does a few things:
1. Switches from nixpkgs-unstable to nixos-unstable{,-small}, simply because
nixpkgs-unstable is not in cache.nixos.org, but nixos-unstable is, and -small
is the same but requires all tests to pass. So we should prefer
nixos-unstable-small, whenever possible.
2. Reorganizes the nixpkgs import code such that Nixpkgs.nix returns an attrset
of all the nixpkgs that I want to use, rather than putting other nixpkgs
branches into the main one as an overlay. This is much simpler and explicit,
but it meant I had to change a lot of usages throughtout the nix codebase.
3. As a consequence of 2, moves the overlays into separate files so they can be
re-used across nixpkgs branches.

nixfmt is the soon-to-be official formatter for Nix code, as per the NixOS
GitHub group. So I figure I should just adopt it without worrying too much about
the specifics of the formatting. I just formatted everything in one go, hence
the huge diff, oh well.

Lots of changes here but the code is much improved. The nix code is clearer and
structured better.
The Haskell code improved in response to the nix changes. I needed to use a
qualified path instead of the abspath because the BIZ_ROOT changes based on
whether bild runs in nix or runs in the user environment.
Rather than passing every argument into Builder.nix, now I just pass the json
from bild and deconstruct it in nix. This is obviously a much better design and
it only came to be after sleeping on it the other night.
