With "truncate" mode, if we try to write to the database while another
process has an active write transaction, we'll block until the other
transaction finishes. This is a problem for the evaluation cache in
particular, since it uses long-running transactions.
WAL mode does not have this issue: it just returns "busy" right away,
so Nix will print
error (ignored): SQLite database '/home/eelco/.cache/nix/eval-cache-v5/...' is busy
and stop trying to write to the evaluation cache. (This was the
intended/original behaviour, see AttrDb::doSQLite().)
