Rework the derivation to use buildGoModule + fetchFromGitHub instead of downloading a pre-built binary tarball. This follows the upstream nixpkgs package.nix pattern with version bumped to 0.286.0. Changes: - Build from source with buildGoModule for reproducibility - Add meta.license = lib.licenses.databricks - Add databricks-cli to allowUnfreePredicate in flake.nix - Exclude tools/testmask (new in v0.286.0, not a distributable package) - Skip TestCacheDirEnvVar (fails in nix sandbox, no home directory)

Why
Databricks apps on Replit need the
databricksCLI available by default. Currently users have to manually download it. Adding it as a nix module makes it available in the nix cacache so Repls have this CLI out of the box.Slack thread: https://slack.com/archives/D0AFAFQP10E/p1773937534232109
