Ryan Burns 61a6d1aae2 stdenv: trim random seed to avoid reference cycles
Using the full store hash as the random seed occasionally caused
reference cycles when the invocation was stored in output artifacts.
For example, cross-compiled gcc was failing due to this:
https://hydra.nixos.org/eval/1631713#tabs-now-fail

Simply truncating the hash is sufficient to avoid this.

# Use the last part of the out path as hash input for the build.
# This should ensure that it is deterministic across rebuilds of the same
# derivation and not easily collide with other builds.
# We also truncate the hash so that it cannot cause reference cycles.
