For projects using version != 2021 and resolver = 2, the resolver
information needs to be kept or otherwise the dependency build might
fail.

when trying to use crane with a non local src (eg, not `./.`) we get the error
```
$ nix flake show
<...>
error: access to absolute path '/Cargo.toml' is forbidden in pure eval mode (use '--impure' to override)
(use '--show-trace' to show detailed location information)
```
To fix this, we quote the relative paths so to properly append them to the base path.

## Reproduction flake
```
{
description = "Build a cargo project without extra checks";
inputs = {
nixpkgs.url = "github:NixOS/nixpkgs/nixpkgs-unstable";
crane = {
url = "github:ipetkov/crane";
inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs";
};
external-crate-source = {
url = "github:ray-kast/empress";
flake = false;
};
flake-utils.url = "github:numtide/flake-utils";
};
outputs = { self, nixpkgs, crane, flake-utils, external-crate-source, ... }:
flake-utils.lib.eachDefaultSystem (system:
let
pkgs = nixpkgs.legacyPackages.${system};
test-crate = crane.lib.${system}.buildPackage {
src = external-crate-source.outPath;
};
in
{
packages.default = test-crate;
});
}
```
* Seems like cachix is still pushing the results up to the cache, we
might as well get use of downloading the (empty) results rather than
having to pull down the intermediary binaries and running them each
time
