The experimental `nix eval` command already supports a `--raw` flag. This commit implements the same flag for the stable nix-instantiate command. Until now instructions and scripts that didn't want to rely on experimental features had to use workarounds such as: nix-instantiate --eval <something> | tr -d \" (which also undesirably also removes double quotation marks within the string), or nix-instantiate --eval <something> | jq -j (which undesirably depends on another package).
