Artemis Tosini b247ef72dc libstore: Create platform LocalStore subclasses
This creates new subclasses of LocalStore for each OS to include
platform-specific functionality. Currently this just includes garbage
collector roots but it could be extended to sandboxing as well.

In order to make sure that the generic LocalStore is not accidentally
constructed, its constructor is protected. A Fallback is provided which
implements no functionality except constructors.

  meson: fix cross compilation

Qyriad b913a939b0 meson: flip the switch!!
This commit makes Meson the default buildsystem for Lix.
The Make buildsystem is now deprecated and will be removed soon, but has
not yet, which will be done in a later commit when all seems good. The
mesonBuild jobs have been removed, and have not been replaced with
equivalent jobs to ensure the Make buildsystem still works.

The full, new commands in a development shell are:

$ meson setup ./build "--prefix=$out" $mesonFlags

(A simple `meson setup ./build` will also build, but will do a different
thing, not having the settings from package.nix applied.)

$ meson compile -C build
$ meson test -C build --suite=check
$ meson install -C build
$ meson test -C build --suite=installcheck

(Check and installcheck may both be done after install, allowing you to
omit the --suite argument entirely, but this is the order package.nix
runs them in.)

If tests fail and Meson helpfully has no output for why, use the
`--print-error-logs` option to `meson test`. Why this is not the default
I cannot explain.

If you change a setting in the buildsystem, most cases will
automatically regenerate the Meson configuration, but some cases, like
trying to build a specific target whose name is new to the buildsystem
(e.g. `meson compile -C build src/libmelt/libmelt.dylib`, when
`libmelt.dylib` did not exist as a target the last time the buildsystem
was generated), then you can reconfigure using new settings but
existing options, and only recompiling stuff affected by the changes:

$ meson setup --reconfigure build

Note that changes to the default values in `meson.options` or in the
`default_options :` argument to project() are NOT propagated with
`--reconfigure`.

If you want a totally clean build, you can use:

$ meson setup --wipe build

That will work regardless of if `./build` exists or not.

Specific, named targets may be addressed in
`meson build -C build <target>` with the "target ID" if there is one,
which is the first string argument passed to target functions that
have one, and unrelated to the variable name, e.g.:

libexpr_dylib = library('nixexpr', …)

can be addressed with:

$ meson compile -C build nixexpr

All targets may be addressed as their output, relative to the build
directory, e.g.:

$ meson compile -C build src/libexpr/libnixexpr.so

But Meson does not consider intermediate files like object files
targets. To build a specific object file, use Ninja directly and
specify the output file relative to the build directory:

$ ninja -C build src/libexpr/libnixexpr.so.p/nixexpr.cc.o

To inspect the canonical source of truth on what the state of the
buildsystem configuration is, use:

$ meson introspect

Have fun!

Qyriad 05e3b1d39e meson: fix cross compilation
This should fix cross compilation in the base case, but this is
difficult to test as cross compilation is broken in many different
places right now. This should bring Meson back up to cross parity with
the Make buildsystem though.

eldritch horrors 86bfede948 libstore: use curl functions for reading headers
don't reimplement header parsing. this was only really needed due to the
ancient github bug we no longer care about, everything else we have done
in custom code can also be done using curl itself. doing this also fixes
possible sources of header smuggling (because the header function didn't
unfold headers and we'd trim them before parsing, which would've made us
read contents of one header as a fully formed header in itself). this is
a slight behavior change because we now honor only the first instance of
a given header where previous behavior was to honor either the last or a
combination of all of them (accept-ranges was logical-or'd by accident).

eldritch horrors 257d7ffa7b libstore: remove github etag workaround
this was a workaround for a *github* bug that happend *in 2015*.
not only is github no longer buggy, it shouldn't have been nix's
responsibility to work around these bugs like this to begin with

while we're at it we'll also remove another workaround—again for
github specifically and again for etag handling—from 2021 that's
also not needed any more. future workarounds for serverside bugs
should probably come with an expiration date that mutates into a
build warning after a while, otherwise this *will* happen again.

eldritch horrors ff9a4fc336 libstore: use curl_multi_{poll,wakeup}
the previous solution to the wakeup problem (adding a pipe and passing
it as an additional fd to curl_multi_wait) worked, but there have been
builtin alternatives for this since 2020. not only do these save code,
they're also a lot more likely to work natively on windows when needed

Alyssa Ross c1319831fb Fix exportReferencesGraph when given store subpath
With Nix 2.3, it was possible to pass a subpath of a store path to
exportReferencesGraph:

	with import <nixpkgs> {};

	let
	  hello = writeShellScriptBin "hello" ''
	    echo ${toString builtins.currentTime}
	  '';
	in

	writeClosure [ "${hello}/bin/hello" ]

This regressed with Nix 2.4, with a very confusing error message, that
presumably indicates it was unintentional:

	error: path '/nix/store/3gl7kgjr4pwf03f0x70dgx9ln3bhl7zc-hello/bin/hello' is not in the Nix store

This commit adds the capability for building the Doxygen internal API
docs in the Meson buildsystem, and also makes doing so the default for
the internal-api-docs hydra job. Aside from the /nix-support directory,
which differed only by the hash part of a store path, the outputs of
hydraJobs.internal-api-docs before and after this commit were
bit-for-bit identical on my machine.

Qyriad 80bbfe2034 don't throw an exception for the trivial case of isStorePath()...
Previously if isStorePath() was called on anything other than a
top-level /nix/store/some-path, it would throw a BadStorePath exception.
This commit duplicates the absolutely trivial check, into
maybeParseStorePath(), and leaves exception throwing to
parseStorePath(), the function that assumes you're already giving a
valid path instead of the one whose purpose is to check if its valid or
not...

Qyriad a3be742bda binary tarball: include cacert in root paths
93cc06334 removed nss-cacert from the binary tarball, but they're
necessary for global compatibility (and for our installer). This is what
results in cacerts being in the default profile, so e.g. the daemon has
TLS certs without having to use the system ones.

There's a fallback behavior in the daemon script in case these wind up
missing from the profile, but we don't want to have to rely on that,
since the fallback fails if it doesn't recognize one of a handful of
distros.

eldritch horrors 725f5cd358 docs: redo content generation for mdbook and manual
manpages can be rendered using the markdown output of mdbook, the rest
of the manual can generated out of the main doc/manual source tree. we
still use lowdown to actually render manpages instead of eg mdbook-man
because lowdown does generate reasonably good manpages (though that is
also somewhat debatable, but they're a lot better than mdbook-man).

doing this not only lets us drastically simplify the lowdown pipeline,
but also remove all custom {{#include}} handling since now mdbook does
all of it, even for the manpage builds. even the lowdown wrapper isn't
entirely necessary because lowdown can take all wrapper arguments with
command line flags rather than bits of input file content.

This also implements running mdbook in Meson, in order to generate the
manpages. The mdbook outputs are also installed in the usual location.
