synopsis: "`:edit`ing a file in Nix store no longer reloads the repl"

Calling `:edit` from the repl now only reloads if the file being edited was outside of Nix store.
That means that all the local variables are now preserved across `:edit`s of store paths.
This is always safe because the store is read-only.
