Subject: [PATCH] nix: Add `quiet` flag with `shortName` overriding its common
 variant

This PR adds `q` as a `shortName` for the `quiet` flag for `nix`
command, overriding
https://github.com/NixOS/nix/blob/26c3fc11eada3fa7df0284190095868a947fefe2/src/libmain/common-args.cc#L23-L28.
Since this flag can be repeated, it simplifies usage by allowing `nix
-qq ...` instead of `nix --quiet --quiet ...`.
