Linus Heckemann 78ac3eb4eb Fix #1762
nix-store --export, nix-store --dump, and nix dump-path would previously
fail silently if writing the data out failed, because
 a) FdSink::write ignored exceptions, and
 b) the commands relied on FdSink's destructor, which ignores
    exceptions, to flush the data out.

This could cause rather opaque issues with installing nixos, because
nix-store --export would happily proceed even if it couldn't write its
data out (e.g. if nix-store --import on the other side of the pipe
failed).

This commit adds tests that expose these issues in the nix-store
commands, and fixes them for all three.

Add plugins to make Nix more extensible.
All plugins in plugin-files will be dlopened, allowing them to
statically construct instances of the various Register* types Nix
supports.

Improve filtering of ANSI escape sequences in build logs
All ANSI sequences except color setting are now filtered out. In
particular, terminal resets (such as from NixOS VM tests) are filtered
out.

Also, fix the completely broken tab character handling.

Tweak progress bar message
Say "copying" instead of "fetching" when copying from another local
store. Nice for nixos-install.

Eelco Dolstra 6fa690291a
Add 'nix upgrade-nix' command
This command upgrades Nix to the latest stable version by installing a
store path obtained from

  https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/raw/master/nixos/modules/installer/tools/nix-fallback-paths.nix

which is the same store path that the installer at
https://nixos.org/nix/install.sh uses.

The upgrade fails if Nix is not installed in a profile (e.g. on NixOS,
or when installed outside of the Nix store).

Eelco Dolstra d41c5eb13f Add command "nix why-depends"
This command shows why a package has another package in its runtime
closure. For example, to see why VLC has libdrm.dev in its closure:

  $ nix why-depends nixpkgs.vlc nixpkgs.libdrm.dev
  /nix/store/g901z9pcj0n5yy5n6ykxk3qm4ina1d6z-vlc-2.2.5.1:
    lib/libvlccore.so.8.0.0: …nfig:/nix/store/405lmx6jl8lp0ad1vrr6j498chrqhz8g-libdrm-2.4.75-d…

  /nix/store/s3nm7kd8hlcg0facn2q1ff2n7wrwdi2l-mesa-noglu-17.0.7-dev:
    nix-support/propagated-native-build-inputs: …-dev /nix/store/405lmx6jl8lp0ad1vrr6j498chrqhz8g-libdrm-2.4.75-d…

Thus, VLC's lib/libvlccore.so.8.0.0 as well as mesa-noglu's
nix-support/propagated-native-build-inputs cause the dependency.

nix run: Allow passing a command to execute
E.g.

  nix run nixpkgs.hello -c hello --greeting Hallo

Note that unlike "nix-shell --command", no quoting of arguments is
necessary.

"-c" (short for "--command") cannot be combined with "--" because they
both consume all remaining arguments. But since installables shouldn't
start with a dash, this is unlikely to cause problems.

nix run: Fix chroot execution
Running "nix run" with a diverted store, e.g.

  $ nix run --store local?root=/tmp/nix nixpkgs.hello

stopped working when Nix became multithreaded, because
unshare(CLONE_NEWUSER) doesn't work in multithreaded processes. The
obvious solution is to terminate all other threads first, but 1) there
is no way to terminate Boehm GC marker threads; and 2) it appears that
the kernel has a race where unshare(CLONE_NEWUSER) will still fail for
some indeterminate amount of time after joining other threads.

So instead, "nix run" will now exec() a single-threaded helper ("nix
__run_in_chroot") that performs the actual unshare()/chroot()/exec().

nix search: Add a cache
The package list is now cached in
~/.cache/nix/package-search.json. This gives a substantial speedup to
"nix search" queries. For example (on an SSD):

First run: (no package search cache, cold page cache)

  $ time nix search blender
  Attribute name: nixpkgs.blender
  Package name: blender
  Version: 2.78c
  Description: 3D Creation/Animation/Publishing System

  real    0m6.516s

Second run: (package search cache populated)

  $ time nix search blender
  Attribute name: nixpkgs.blender
  Package name: blender
  Version: 2.78c
  Description: 3D Creation/Animation/Publishing System

  real    0m0.143s

nix-shell: Use bashInteractive from <nixpkgs>
This adds about 0.1s to nix-shell runtime in the case where
bashInteractive already exists.

See discussion at https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/27493.

nix search: Ignore top-level eval errors
$NIX_PATH may contain elements that don't evaluate to an attrset (like
"nixos-config"), so ignore those.

nix path-info: Show download sizes for binary cache stores
E.g.

  $ nix path-info --json --store https://cache.nixos.org nixpkgs.thunderbird -S
  ...
      "downloadHash": "sha256:1jlixpzi225wwa0f4xdrwrqgi47ip1qpj9p06fyxxg07sfmyi4q0",
      "downloadSize": 43047620,
      "closureDownloadSize": 84745960
    }

Avoid a call to derivationFromPath()
This doesn't work in read-only mode, ensuring that operations like

  nix path-info --store https://cache.nixos.org -S nixpkgs.hello

(asking for the closure size of nixpkgs.hello in cache.nixos.org) work
when nixpkgs.hello doesn't exist in the local store.

nix path-info: Don't barf on invalid paths
Now you get

  [
    {
      "path": "/nix/store/fzvliz4j5xzvnd0w5zgw2l0ksqh578yk-bla",
      "valid": false
    }
  ]

StorePathsCommand: Don't build installables
On second though this was annoying. E.g. "nix log nixpkgs.hello" would
build/download Hello first, even though the log can be fetched
directly from the binary cache.

May need to revisit this.
