[bug#36605] [PATCH v4] daemon: Set ownership of kept build directories to the calling user.

[Hartmut Goebel <h.goebel@crazy-compilers.com>]

Fixes <http://bugs.gnu.org/15890>.

* nix/libstore/globals.hh (Settings) Add clientUid and clientGid.
* nix/nix-daemon/nix-daemon.cc (daemonLoop] Store UID and GID of the
  caller in settings.
* nix/libstore/build.cc (_chown): New function.
  (DerivationGoal::deleteTmpDir): Use it, change ownership of build
  directory if it is kept and the new owner is not root.
