squashfs: use -no-hardlinks for reproducible squashfs images (#114454)
the nix store may contain hardlinks: derivations may output them
directly, or users may be using store optimization which automatically
hardlinks identical files in the nix store.

The presence of these links are intended to be a 'transparent'
optimization. However, when creating a squashfs image, the image
will be different depending on whether hard links were present
on the filesystem, leading to reproducibility problems.

By passing '-no-hardlinks' to mksquashfs the files are stored
as duplicates in the squashfs image. Since squashfs has support
for duplicate files this does not lead to a larger image.
