heads-up: we have seen CI failures due to the recent `nix-2.15` bump

... that was (automatically) performed by install-nix-action. This probably isn't the fault of the action, rather either

nix-2.15 is broken in some way, or
our .nix tooling is buggy (triggers some .drv snafu)

I would be interested to see whether others have problems too.

The symptoms can be seen in https://github.com/dfinity/motoko/actions/runs/4681124992/jobs/8293314145. We get warnings like

warning: The interpretation of store paths arguments ending in `.drv` recently changed. If this command is now failing try again with '/nix/store/wcdjm32sjplq2nna4j1sz70knpwfqs05-mo-ide.drv!*'

and the builds terminate (successfully) abnormally fast. (Of course they don't run at all.)
