derived-path: refuse built derived path with a non-derivation base

Example: /nix/store/dr53sp25hyfsnzjpm8mh3r3y36vrw3ng-neovim-0.9.5^out

This is nonsensical since selecting outputs can only be done for a
buildable derivation, not for a realised store path. The build worker
side of things ends up crashing with an assertion when trying to handle
such malformed paths.
