[bug#43340] [PATCH 3/5] daemon: Move 'Agent' to libutil.

["Ludovic Courtès" <ludo@gnu.org>]

* nix/libstore/build.cc (DerivationGoal::tryBuildHook): Add "offload" to
'args' and pass settings.guixProgram as the first argument to
Agent::Agent.
(pathNullDevice, commonChildInit, Agent, Agent::Agent)
(Agent::~Agent): Move to...
* nix/libutil/util.cc: ... here.
* nix/libutil/util.hh (struct Agent, commonChildInit): New
declarations.
