nix repl: make symlinks with the :bl command
Requested by ppepino on the Matrix:
https://matrix.to/#/!KqkRjyTEzAGRiZFBYT:nixos.org/$Tb32BS3rVE2BSULAX4sPm0h6CDewX2hClOTGzTC7gwM?via=nixos.org&via=matrix.org&via=nixos.dev

This adds a new command, :bl, which works like :b but also creates
a GC root symlink to the various derivation outputs.

ckie@cookiemonster ~/git/nix -> ./outputs/out/bin/nix repl
Welcome to Nix 2.6.0. Type :? for help.

nix-repl> :l <nixpkgs>
Added 16118 variables.

nix-repl> :b runCommand "hello" {} "echo hi > $out"

This derivation produced the following outputs:
  ./repl-result-out -> /nix/store/kidqq2acdpi05c4a9mlbg2baikmzik44-hello
[1 built, 0.0 MiB DL]
ckie@cookiemonster ~/git/nix -> cat ./repl-result-out
hi

Profpatsch a51c457204 Release Notes 2.4: add --indirect no-op change
Since
00d25e8457
which was first included in nix 2.4.

It is a backwards-compatible change since the flag will just be
ignored.

pennae 00c993f48b add zipAttrsWith primop
nixpkgs can save a good bit of eval memory with this primop. zipAttrsWith is
used quite a bit around nixpkgs (eg in the form of recursiveUpdate), but the
most costly application for this primop is in the module system. it improves
the implementation of zipAttrsWith from nixpkgs by not checking an attribute
multiple times if it occurs more than once in the input list, allocates less
values and set elements, and just avoids many a temporary object in general.

nixpkgs has a more generic version of this operation, zipAttrsWithNames, but
this version is only used once so isn't suitable for being the base of a new
primop. if it were to be used more we should add a second primop instead.

Silvan Mosberger 90700736c7 Introduce builtins.groupBy primop
This function is very useful in nixpkgs, but its implementation in Nix
itself is rather slow due to it requiring a lot of attribute set and
list appends.
