Make import from derivation work again

Broken by f503e556ea
Fixes #12

Cause of the problem:
nix-instantiate uses the store in read-only mode by default, unlike
nix-build.
Import from derivation requires a read-write store, causing the
command to fail with a (bad) error message. This only happened when
the derivation wasn't already built. This did not occur often
because commands like arion up use nix-build and therefore typically
mask the problem on subsequent invocations.

To reproduce the problem, garbage collect, then arion ps.
