The path /root/.nix-profile is a sym-link to /nix/var/nix/profiles/default. The
latter path, however, works for everyone while the former path works only for
root, so we prefer the public path whenever possible.

- Use the latest Nix version 1.11.14.
- Attempts to download the Nix installation tarball from http://nixos.org
redirect to https these days, which wget doesn't support unless OpenSSL is
available.
- Use addgroup and adduser commands to create the Nix build users.
- Link the Nix profile script into /etc/profile.d, where it's run
automatically.
- Dropped installation of bash and tar. Neither tool is essential for running
Nix.
Use the command "docker build -t nix . && docker run -it --rm nix sh -"
to build and run the Nix docker container.

This prevents collisions with the "native" OpenSSL, in particular on
OS X.
Fixes #921.

* Dockerfile: add GNU tar native dependency
`builtins.fetchTarball` requires GNU tar to be available in the $PATH in
order to unpack the fetched tarball (there is a FIXME comment for this),
which Alpine does not ship by default (it ships BusyBox tar).
* Dockerfile: add GNU bash native dependency
`nix-shell` defaults to invoking `bash` from the $PATH for the subshell.
In theory this can be overriden with the NIX_BUILD_SHELL environment
variable, but this does not work properly. `nix-shell` generates and
passes a script (`$rcFile`) to be executed by the subshell which uses
bashisms (`source` and `shopt`). Additionally, in interactive mode,
`nix-shell` passes the `--rcfile` argument to the shell, which is
another bashism.
Because `bash` is thus de-facto required, add `bash` as a native package
dependency to make it available for `nix-shell`.
