For each known realisation, store: - its output - its output path This comes with a set of needed changes: - New `realisations` module declaring the types needed for describing these mappings - New `Store::registerDrvOutput` method registering all the needed informations about a derivation output (also replaces `LocalStore::linkDeriverToPath`) - new `Store::queryRealisation` method to retrieve the informations for a derivations This introcudes some redundancy on the remote-store side between `wopQueryDerivationOutputMap` and `wopQueryRealisation`. However we might need to keep both (regardless of backwards compat) because we sometimes need to get some infos for all the outputs of a derivation (where `wopQueryDerivationOutputMap` is handy), but all the stores can't implement it − because listing all the outputs of a derivation isn't really possible for binary caches where the server doesn't allow to list a directory.
