Reduce maxLayers to 70 in docker build
The nixos/nix docker image is built using `buildLayeredImage`, which spreads the nix store over a configured number of layers. This number was set to create an image with 100 layers. Because there is a limit of (typically) 127 layers in AUFS, this only left 27 layers to build on top. At the same time, nearly half of the created layers were only <100kb in size, many even <10kb, negating the intended advantage in cachability.
This commit moves the tradeoff a bit by reducing the number of layers to 70.
