Use the `nix` command (and flakes) in the CI
Apart from a slight simplification and a bit of dogfooding, this also make the cache behavior more predictable. For example `nix build .` and `nix build nix/$(git rev-parse HEAD)` will yield the exact same path, while their “intuitive” non-flake equivalents (`nix-build` and `nix-build https://github.com/nixos/nix/archives/$(git rev-parse HEAD).tar.gz`) don’t. This was a pain for example in https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/5059 Also, the `bar-with-logs` log format is imho nicer (even in an non-interactive context) because prefixing each log line with the name of the derivation that produced it makes it much easier to follow what’s going on.
