Louis Blin bf56388c92 dockerTools.buildLayeredImage: configurable store root
`stream_layered_image.py` currently assumes that the store root will be
at `/nix/store`, although the user might have configured this
differently. This makes `buildLayeredImage` unusable with stores having
a different root, as they will fail an assertion in the python script.

This change updates that assertion to use `builtins.storeDir` as the
source of truth about where the store lives, instead of assuming
`/nix/store`.

"""
This script generates a Docker image from a set of store paths. Uses
Docker Image Specification v1.2 as reference [1].
It expects a JSON file with the following properties and writes the
image as an uncompressed tarball to stdout:
* "architecture", "config", "os", "created", "repo_tag" correspond to
the fields with the same name on the image spec [2].
* "created" can be "now".
* "created" is also used as mtime for files added to the image.
* "store_layers" is a list of layers in ascending order, where each
layer is the list of store paths to include in that layer.
The main challenge for this script to create the final image in a
streaming fashion, without dumping any intermediate data to disk
for performance.
A docker image has each layer contents archived as separate tarballs,
and they later all get enveloped into a single big tarball in a
content addressed fashion. However, because how "tar" format works,
we have to know about the name (which includes the checksum in our
case) and the size of the tarball before we can start adding it to the
outer tarball. We achieve that by creating the layer tarballs twice;
on the first iteration we calculate the file size and the checksum,
and on the second one we actually stream the contents. 'add_layer_dir'
function does all this.
