It is just the new CLI that gets the `^` syntax. The old CLI already has
a (slightly different) `!` syntax.

primop: add readFileType, optimize readDir
...
Allows checking directory entry type of a single file/directory.
This was added to optimize the use of `builtins.readDir` on some
filesystems and operating systems which cannot detect this information
using POSIX's `readdir`.
Previously `builtins.readDir` would eagerly use system calls to lookup
these filetypes using other interfaces; this change makes these
operations lazy in the attribute values for each file with application
of `builtins.readFileType`.

mdbook-linkcheck is not consistent about its warning setting.

unsafeDiscardReferences
...
Adds a new boolean structured attribute
`outputChecks.<output>.unsafeDiscardReferences` which disables scanning
an output for runtime references.
__structuredAttrs = true;
outputChecks.out.unsafeDiscardReferences = true;
This is useful when creating filesystem images containing their own embedded Nix
store: they are self-contained blobs of data with no runtime dependencies.
Setting this attribute requires the experimental feature
`discard-references` to be enabled.
