Subject: nix-build: set execfail

When starting a nix-shell with `-i` it was previously possible for it to
silently fail in the scenario where the specified interpreter didn't
exist. This happened due to the `exec` call masking the issue.

With this change we enable `execfail`, which causes the script using
`nix-shell` as interpreter to correctly exit with code 127.

Fixes: #4598
