eldritch horrors e6cd67591b libexpr: rewrite the parser with pegtl instead of flex/bison
this gives about 20% performance improvements on pure parsing. obviously
it will be less on full eval, but depending on how much parsing is to be
done (e.g. including hackage-packages.nix or not) it's more like 4%-10%.

this has been tested (with thousands of core hours of fuzzing) to ensure
that the ASTs produced by the new parser are exactly the same as the old
one would have produced. error messages will change (sometimes by a lot)
and are not yet perfect, but we would rather leave this as is for later.

test results for running only the parser (excluding the variable binding
code) in a tight loop with inputs and parameters as given are promising:

  - 40% faster on lix's package.nix at 10000 iterations
  - 1.3% faster on nixpkgs all-packages.nix at 1000 iterations
  - equivalent on all of nixpkgs concatenated at 100 iterations
    (excluding invalid files, each file surrounded with parens)

more realistic benchmarks are somewhere in between the extremes, parsing
once again getting the largest uplift. other realistic workloads improve
by a few percentage points as well, notably system builds are 4% faster.

jade 0f99ed43f1 build-time: remove 20% more by PCH'ing C++ stdlib
It seems like someone implemented precompiled headers a long time ago
and then it never got ported to meson or maybe didn't work at all.

This is, however, blessedly easy to simply implement. I went looking for
`#define` that could affect the result of precompiling the headers, and
as far as I can tell we aren't doing any of that, so this should truly
just be free build time savings.

Previous state:
Compilation (551 times):
  Parsing (frontend):         1302.1 s
  Codegen & opts (backend):    956.3 s

New state:
**** Time summary:
Compilation (567 times):
  Parsing (frontend):         1123.0 s
  Codegen & opts (backend):   1078.1 s

I wonder if the "regression" in codegen time is just doing the PCH
operation a few times, because meson does it per-target.

Deprecate the online flake registries and vendor the default registry
Fixes #183, #110, #116.

The default flake-registry option becomes 'vendored', and refers
to a vendored flake-registry.json file in the install path.

Vendored copy of the flake-registry is from github:NixOS/flake-registry
at commit 9c69f7bd2363e71fe5cd7f608113290c7614dcdd.

Always initialize curl in parent process on darwin
Because of an objc quirk[1], calling curl_global_init for the first time
after fork() will always result in a crash.
Up until now the solution has been to set
OBJC_DISABLE_INITIALIZE_FORK_SAFETY for every nix process to ignore
that error.
This is less than ideal because we were setting it in package.nix,
which meant that running nix tests locally would fail because
that variable was not set.
Instead of working around that error we address it at the core -
by calling curl_global_init inside initLibStore, which should mean
curl will already have been initialized by the time we try to do so in
a forked process.

I didn't enable this by default for clang due to making the build time

not *that* bad should probably simply enable this.

eldritch horrors 279e30e7ef build: replace changelog-d with local script
hacking changelog-d to support not just github but also forgejo and
gerrit is a lot more complicated than it's worth, even moreso since
the entire thing can just as well be done with ~60 lines of python.
this new script is also much cheaper to instantiate (being python),
so having it enabled in all shells is far less of a hassle.

we've also adjusted existing release notes that referenced a gerrit
cl to auto-link to the cl in question, making the diff a bit bigger

Florian Klink d60f3cf6e9 nix-daemon.conf.in: add tmpfiles file to create nix/daemon-socket directory
nix-daemon.socket is used to socket-activate nix-daemon.service when
/nix/var/nix/daemon-socket/socket is accessed.

In container usecases, sometimes /nix/var/nix/daemon-socket is
bind-mounted read-only into the container.

In these cases, we want to skip starting nix-daemon.socket.

However, since systemd 250, `ConditionPathIsReadWrite` is also not met
if /nix/var/nix/daemon-socket doesn't exist at all. This means, a
regular NixOS system will skip starting nix-daemon.socket:

> [  237.187747] systemd[1]: Nix Daemon Socket was skipped because of a failed condition check (ConditionPathIsReadWrite=/nix/var/nix/daemon-socket).

To prevent this from happening, ship a tmpfiles file that'll cause the
directory to be created if it doesn't exist already.

In the case of NixOS, we can just add Nix to `systemd.tmpfiles.packages`
and have these files picked up automatically.

Alyssa Ross 4f80464645
Apply OS checks to host platform, not build
Previously, the build system used uname(1) output when it wanted to
check the operating system it was being built for, which meant that it
didn't take into-account cross-compilation when the build and host
operating systems were different.

To fix this, instead of consulting uname output, we consult the host
triple, specifically the third "kernel" part.

For "kernel"s with stable ABIs, like Linux or Cygwin, we can use a
simple ifeq to test whether we're compiling for that system, but for
other platforms, like Darwin, FreeBSD, or Solaris, we have to use a
more complicated check to take into account the version numbers at the
end of the "kernel"s.  I couldn't find a way to just strip these
version numbers in GNU Make without shelling out, which would be even
more ugly IMO.  Because these checks differ between kernels, and the
patsubst ones are quite fiddly, I've added variables for each host OS
we might want to check to make them easier to reuse.
