refactor(nix): migrate why-depends to use DependencyGraph

Browse source 
Replaces manual graph traversal in `nix why-depends` with the new
DependencyGraph infrastructure. Simplifies code while maintaining
identical output and behavior.

## Changes to why-depends

**Before**: Custom Node struct with manual Dijkstra implementation
- 150+ lines of graph management boilerplate
- Manual priority queue and distance tracking
- Custom reverse reference bookkeeping
- Inline file scanning mixed with graph traversal

**After**: Clean API calls to DependencyGraph
- Replaced Node struct with DependencyGraph<StorePath>
- Replaced manual Dijkstra with computeDistancesFrom()
- Use getSuccessors() instead of managing refs/rrefs
- Extracted findHashContexts() helper for clarity

**Improvements**:
- ~50 lines shorter, easier to understand
- C++20 ranges for cleaner iteration
- Separated concerns: graph ops vs. file scanning vs. formatting
- Complex algorithms now in well-tested DependencyGraph

## Example Transformation

```cpp
// Before: Manual graph building
std::map<StorePath, Node> graph;
for (auto & path : closure)
    graph.emplace(path, Node{...});
for (auto & node : graph)
    for (auto & ref : node.second.refs)
        graph.find(ref)->second.rrefs.insert(node.first);

// After: Use DependencyGraph API
StorePathGraph depGraph(*store, closure);
depGraph.computeDistancesFrom(dependencyPath);
auto successors = depGraph.getSuccessors(nodePath);
```

## Helper Extraction

**findHashContexts()**: Extracted file scanning into reusable function
- Takes accessor, reference paths, target hash
- Returns hash → formatted context strings
- Keeps printNode() focused on graph traversal

## Test Improvements

**references.cc**: Changed ASSERT_EQ → EXPECT_EQ
- EXPECT continues after failure, shows all results
- Better debugging when multiple assertions fail
- GoogleTest best practice

## Behavior Preservation

**Critical**: Pure refactoring, zero user-visible changes
- Identical output format
- Same algorithm (Dijkstra shortest paths)
- Same filtering/highlighting
- Same CLI interface

## Benefits

1. **Maintainability**: Algorithms in shared, tested infrastructure
2. **Correctness**: DependencyGraph thoroughly unit tested
3. **Reusability**: Other commands can now use DependencyGraph
4. **Readability**: why-depends focused on UI, not graph algorithms
5. **Future-proof**: Sets stage for improved error messages
