Fix sys.prefix in case of a Nix env
The prefix will now be correct in case of Nix env.

Note, however, that creating a venv from a Nix env still does not function. This does not seem to be possible
with the current approach either, because venv will copy or symlink our Python wrapper. In case it symlinks
(the default) it won't see a pyvenv.cfg. If it is copied I think it should function but it does not...

"""
This is a Nix-specific module for discovering modules built with Nix.
The module recursively adds paths that are on `NIX_PYTHONPATH` to `sys.path`. In
order to process possible `.pth` files `site.addsitedir` is used.
The paths listed in `PYTHONPATH` are added to `sys.path` afterwards, but they
will be added before the entries we add here and thus take precedence.
Note the `NIX_PYTHONPATH` environment variable is unset in order to prevent leakage.
Similarly, this module listens to the environment variable `NIX_PYTHONEXECUTABLE`
and sets `sys.executable` to its value.
