There were some hangs caused by this. Need to fix them, ideally
reproducing the issue in a test, before trying this again.
This reverts commit 4a4a0f901c70676ee47f830d2ff6a72789ba1baf.
This avoids some duplicated code, leveraging the same `StoreReference`
type that also undergirds the machine file dedup we just did prior.
By using `LegacySSHStoreConfig`, we're also taking a baby step towards
using the store interface rather than messing around with the protocol
internals.
incrementally ingest eval results
nix-eval-jobs streams output, unlike hydra-eval-jobs. Now that we've
migrated, we can use this to:
1. Use less RAM by avoiding buffering a whole eval's worth of metadata
into a Perl string and an array of JSON objects.
2. Make evals latency a bit lower by allowing the queue runner to start
ingesting builds faster.
Also use the newly-restored constituents support in `nix-eval-jobs`
Note, we pass --workers and --max-memory-size to n-e-j
Lost in the h-e-j -> n-e-j migration, causing evaluation to always be
single threaded and limited to 4GiB RAM. Follow the config settings like
h-e-j used to do (via C++ code).
`nix-eval-jobs` should check `hydraJobs` and then `checks` with flakes

I have not experienced regressions with local testing.

In my system logs I see this every time a new eval starts:
```
hydra-evaluator[PID]: hint: Using 'master' as the name for the initial branch. This default branch name
hydra-evaluator[PID]: hint: is subject to change. To configure the initial branch name to use in all
hydra-evaluator[PID]: hint: of your new repositories, which will suppress this warning, call:
hydra-evaluator[PID]: hint:
hydra-evaluator[PID]: hint: git config --global init.defaultBranch <name>
hydra-evaluator[PID]: hint:
hydra-evaluator[PID]: hint: Names commonly chosen instead of 'master' are 'main', 'trunk' and
hydra-evaluator[PID]: hint: 'development'. The just-created branch can be renamed via this command:
hydra-evaluator[PID]: hint:
hydra-evaluator[PID]: hint: git branch -m <name>
```
This ensures this hint is not logged anymore and unclutters the syslog.
I presume it does not really matter what name is chosen for the branch.

These are required for the `signString` and `readFile` subroutines used when signing NARs.
(cherry picked from commit b94a7b6d5c56362af9ea85d944f8454d861ec001)
With https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/9839, the `storeUri` field is
much better structured, so we can use it while still opening the SSH
connection ourselves.
This fixes:
