* Simplify the substitute mechanism:

  - Drop the store expression.  So now a substitute is just a
    command-line invocation (a program name + arguments).  If you
    register a substitute you are responsible for registering the
    expression that built it (if any) as a root of the garbage
    collector.
  - Drop the substitutes-rev DB table.
