Vladimír Čunát 818aad3ec4 Detect and disallow base32 hash overflow
Example (before this commit):
$ nix-hash --type sha256 --to-base16 4n0igfxbd3kqvvj2k2xgysrp63l4v2gd110fwkk4apfpm0hvzwh0 \
    | xargs nix-hash --type sha256 --to-base32
0n0igfxbd3kqvvj2k2xgysrp63l4v2gd110fwkk4apfpm0hvzwh0

It's a real-life example:

Vladimír Čunát b39622a487 rename chroot to sandbox (fixes #656, close #682)
- rename options but leav old names as lower-priority aliases,
  also "-dirs" -> "-paths" to get closer to the meaning
- update docs to reflect the new names (old aliases are not documented),
  including a new file with release notes
- tests need an update after corresponding changes to nixpkgs
- __noChroot is left as it is (after discussion on the PR)

Vladimír Čunát 42808fa281 nix-env --upgrade: show "downgrading" when doing so
It was strange to show "upgrading" when the version was getting lower.
This is left on "upgrading" when the versions are the same,
as I can't see any better wording.

Vladimír Čunát 64f9b511be nix-env --upgrade: avoid unexpected downgrades
Until now, if one explicitly installed a low-priority version,
nix-env --upgrade would downgrade it by default and even with --leq.
Let's never accept an upgrade with version not matching the upgradeType.
Additionally, let's never decrease the priority of an installed package;
you can use --install to force that.

Also refactor to use variable bestVersion instead of bestName,
as only version was used from it.
