nix: python3 as dependency #478

Please add "python3 "to the dependencies of the nix package. It took me days to discover in the source code that the missing "python3" was the culprit.

Thank you for the report, and sorry for your trouble. I cannot change the nix package myself because I am not the maintainer of it. This could be reported as a bug to nixOS. My fault is that I did not document well this (rather new) dependency. I have added some notes in x11docker wiki to address this. Furthermore, I have added support for jq json parser as a lightweight alternative to python.
