`nix build` now works, using `rustPlatform.buildRustPackage` built with the
pinned dev toolchain rather than whatever rustc nixpkgs happens to carry, so
it compiles with the same compiler `nix develop` and CI do. `cargoLock`
points at the repo's own `Cargo.lock` rather than a separately maintained
hash.

The crate has no `[[bin]]` target — see the "No CLI, and no binary at all"
non-goal just added to `GOALS.md` — so the resulting store path comes out
empty: `cargoInstallHook` only copies files matching a `[[bin]]` target out
of `target/release`, and there is nothing to copy. Verified rather than
assumed; the first version of this comment claimed the output held "an rlib
and docs", which is not what actually lands in the store path.

What `nix build` is good for regardless: it compiles with the pinned
toolchain and runs the full suite, doctests included, inside the Nix
sandbox with no network — matching the "no credentials needed" property
`CLAUDE.md` already claims for `cargo test`, now exercised a second way.
Treat it as a build-and-test gate, not a source of an installable artifact.
