not printing activities at all when no progress information is available
hides *all* progress information from e.g. flake show. this is not ideal
and needs to be fixed, but the fix *still* has problems with flake show:
in multiline mode we will overwrite all useful flake show output as soon
as the progress bar is redrawn. flake show output is also mangled in any
number of other situations (like -v being set), so we should probably be
not too worried about it and fix progress reporting properly another day

Previously, the progress bar had two subtly different states in which the bar
would not actually render, both with their own shortcomings: inactive (which
was irreversible) and paused (reversible, but swallowing logs). Furthermore,
there was no way of resetting the statistics, so a very bad solution was
implemented (243c0f18da) that would create a new
logger for each line of the repl, leaking the previous one and discarding the
value of printBuildLogs. Finally, if stderr was not attached to a TTY, the
update thread was started even though the logger was not active, violating the
invariant required by the destructor (which is not observed because the logger
is leaked).
In this commit, the two aforementioned states are unified into a single one,
which can be exited again, correctly upholds the invariant that the update
thread is only running while the progress bar is active, and does not swallow
logs. The latter change in behavior is not expected to be a problems in the
rare cases where the paused state was used before, since other loggers (like
the simple one) don't exhibit it anyway. The startProgressBar/stopProgressBar
API is removed due to being a footgun, and a new method for properly resetting
the progress is added.

Add the log-formats `multiline` and `multiline-with-logs` which offer
multiple current active building status lines.

This was caused by -L calling setLogFormat() again, which caused the
creation of a new progress bar without destroying the old one. So we
had two progress bars clobbering each other.
We should change 'logger' to be a smart pointer, but I'll do that in a
future PR.
Fixes#6931.
Needed so that we can include it as a logger in loggers.cc without
adding a dependency on nix
This also requires moving names.hh to libutil to prevent a circular
dependency between libmain and libexpr
