Supply the --nix flag to stack if we appear to be on Nix/NixOS #23

@hdgarrood

Description

@hdgarrood

Raised as a possibility in #21 . Currently, building purs on Nix is unlikely to work, as stack setup reports:

I don't know how to install GHC on your system configuration, please install manually

I honestly have no idea how good of an idea this is; if we can't do this reliably then I think it could easily cause more pain than it would solve. Perhaps we should just not support Nix at all; Nix users do have other options for installing the compiler.
