We were calculating the nar hash wrong when the file ingestion method
was flat. I don't think there's anything we can do in that case but dump
the file again, so that's what I do.
As an optomization, we again could reuse the original dump for just the
recursive and non-sha256 case, but I rather do that after this fix, and
after my other PRs which deduplicate this code.
Until now, the `gitlab`-fetcher determined the source's rev by checking
the latest commit of the given `ref` using the
`/repository/branches`-API.
This breaks however when trying to fetch a gitlab-repo by its tag:
```
$ nix repl
nix-repl> builtins.fetchTree gitlab:Ma27/nvim.nix/0.2.0
error: --- Error ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- nix
unable to download 'https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/Ma27%2Fnvim.nix/repository/branches/0.2.0': HTTP error 404 ('')
```
When using the `/commits?ref_name`-endpoint[1] you can pass any kind of
valid ref to the `gitlab`-fetcher.
Please note that this fetches the only first 20 commits on a ref,
unfortunately there's currently no endpoint which only retrieves the
latest commit of any kind of `ref`.

We've added the variant to `DerivationOutput` to support them, but made
`DerivationOutput::path` partial to avoid actually implementing them.
With this chage, we can all collaborate on "just" removing
`DerivationOutput::path` calls to implement CA derivations.
The `m` acts as termination-symbol when declaring graphics. Because
of this, the `;1m` doesn't have any effect and is directly printed to
the console:
```
$ nix repl
> builtins.fetchGit { /* ... */ }
{ outPath = "/nix/store/s0f0iz4a41cxx2h055lmh6p2d5k5bc6r-source"; rev = "e73e45b723a9a6eecb98bd5f3df395d9ab3633b6"; revCount = ;1m428; shortRev = "e73e45b"; submodules = ;1mfalse; }
```
Introduced by 6403508f5a.
Starting in Catalina, macOS runs a syspolicyd "assessment" that hits the network for each binary/script executable. It does cache these results, but Nix tends to introduce many "new" executables per build. (You can read more about this at https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/3789).
This PR adds a temporary, redundant macOS job with these assessments disabled. I'm hoping you can adopt it for a few weeks to help me collect more data on how this affects real projects.
