Hydra generates a GHC closure for Darwin that for no apparent reason
contains an ancient, broken Haddock binary -- probably because of an
impurity in the build system. That bug makes those GHC binaries
unusable: <https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/2689>.
This likely exacerbates the non-determinism in ghc package ids, so until
that is fixed let's live with the slow builds.
This reverts commit 817c0e4144.
This should fix the OpenJDK build, which was failing because paxctl is
in sbin and therefore not automatically added to $PATH.

This patch makes two changes.
(1) It memoizes the computation of dependsOnOld.
(2) It replaces rewrittenDerivations with a similar memoized table rewriteMemo.
This prevents the entire tree of run-time dependencies from being traversed and instead only traverses the graph of run-time dependencies.
In the case of deep dependency changes (such as changing one's bash version for an entire NixOS system) this can lead to an exponential speedup in processing time
because shared dependencies are no longer traversed multiple times.
This patch isn't quite derivation-per-derivation equivalent to the original computation.
There are two immaterial differences.
(1) The previous version would always call upon sed to replace oldDependency with newDependency even when the store object being updated doesn't directly depend on
oldDependency.
The new version only replaceds oldDependency with newDependency when the store object being updated actually directly depends on oldDependency (which means there is
actually a hash to replace).
(2) The previous version would list the old store object as a source input of the new store object, *except* for the root derivation being updated. Because the
root derivation being updated has its actual derivation avaiable the previous verions would make the updated root derivation depend on the old derivation as a
derivation input instead of a source input.
The new version always lists the old store object as a source input, including the root derivation.
We still need this because some clang-based packages depend on
it. (The sysroot filtering was originally done by clang-wrapper's
ld-wrapper, but we merged the ld-wrappers in
a4f9b9c8b5ec9ef106671ffdf93e0059835d0ec1.)
