Fix #14480 This method is not well-defined for arbitrary stores, which do not have a notion of a "real path" -- it is only well-defined for local file systems stores, which do have exactly that notion, and so it is moved to that sub-interface instead. Some call-sites had to be fixed up for this, but in all cases the changes are positive. Using `getFSSourceAccessor` allows for more other stores to work properly. `nix-channel` was straight-up wrong in the case of redirected local stores. And the building logic with remote building and a non-local store is also fixed, properly gating some deletions on store type. Co-authored-by: Robert Hensing <robert@roberthensing.nl>
