nix flake info --json: List the "provides"

It also lists the contents of "checks" and "packages".

For example:

  $ nix flake info --json | jq
  {
    "branch": "HEAD",
    "description": "The purely functional package manager",
    "epoch": 2019,
    "id": "nix",

    "path": "/nix/store/2w2qla8735dbxah8gai8r1nsbf5x4f5d-source",
    "provides": {
      "checks": {
        "binaryTarball": {},
        "nix-copy-closure": {},
        "perlBindings": {},
        "remoteBuilds": {},
        "setuid": {}
      },
      "defaultPackage": {},
      "devShell": {},
      "hydraJobs": {},
      "packages": {
        "nix": {},
        "nix-perl-bindings": {}
      }
    },
    "revCount": 6955,
    "revision": "8cb24e04e8b6cc60e2504733afe78e0eadafcd98",
