Don't bind-mount these to themselves,
mount them into the chroot directory.
Fixes pty issues when using sandbox on CentOS 7.4.
(build of perlPackages.IOTty fails before this change)

error: getting status of '/nix/store/j8p0vv89k1pf0cn7kmfsdcs7bshwga1i-firefox-52.7.2esr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/firefox.png': No such file or directory

Also improve error message on directory/non-directory collisions.
For instance, this reduced the memory consumption of
$ nix copy --from ssh://localhost --to ~/my-nix /nix/store/1n7x0yv8vq6zi90hfmian84vdhd04bgp-blender-2.79a
from 632 MiB to 16 MiB.
E.g.
cannot build on 'ssh://mac1': cannot connect to 'mac1': bash: nix-store: command not found
cannot build on 'ssh://mac2': cannot connect to 'mac2': Host key verification failed.
cannot build on 'ssh://mac3': cannot connect to 'mac3': Received disconnect from 213... port 6001:2: Too many authentication failures
Authentication failed.
copyStorePath() now pipes the output of srcStore->narFromPath()
directly into dstStore->addToStore(). The sink used by the former is
converted into a source usable by the latter using
boost::coroutine2. This is based on [1].
This reduces the maximum resident size of
$ nix build --store ~/my-nix/ /nix/store/b0zlxla7dmy1iwc3g459rjznx59797xy-binutils-2.28.1 --substituters file:///tmp/binary-cache-xz/ --no-require-sigs
from 418592 KiB to 53416 KiB. (The previous commit also reduced the
runtime from ~4.2s to ~3.4s, not sure why.) A further improvement will
be to download files into a Sink.

Issue #1969.
This can be iterated on and currently leaves out settings we know we
want to forward, but it fixes#1713 and fixes#1935 and isn't
fundamentally broken like the status quo. Future changes are suggested
in a comment.
This allows building armv[67]l-linux derivations on compatible aarch64
machines. Failure to add the architecture may result from missing
hardware support, in which case we can't run 32-bit binaries and don't
need to restrict them with seccomp anyway,
This allows specifying additional systems that a machine is able to
build for. This may apply on some armv7-capable aarch64 processors, or
on systems using qemu-user with binfmt-misc to support transparent
execution of foreign-arch programs.
This removes the previous hard-coded assumptions about which systems are
ABI-compatible with which other systems, and instead relies on the user
to specify any additional platforms that they have ensured compatibility
for and wish to build for locally.
NixOS should probably add i686-linux on x86_64-linux systems for this
setting by default.
The overhead of sandbox builds is a problem on NixOS (since building a
NixOS configuration involves a lot of small derivations) but not for
typical non-NixOS use cases. So outside of NixOS we can enable it.
