[bug#75810] [PATCH v7 04/16] daemon: Bind-mount all the inputs, not just directories.

[Ludovic Courtès]

* nix/libstore/build.cc (DerivationGoal::startBuilder): Add all of
‘inputPaths’ to ‘dirsInChroot’ instead of hard-linking regular files.
Special-case symlinks.
(DerivationGoal)[regularInputPaths]: Remove.
