- We were looking for a top-level tarball path that looked like nix-*.
This was invalid, since our tarballs have lix-*.
- We were looking for a store path that looked like nix-*.*.*. This was
invalid, since ours is lix-*.*.*.
This change accepts both.
- We also added a symlink for nix-installer and nix-installer.sh, which
deals with the test suite being pretty tightly coupled to that path.
- We fixed a bug exposed in the tests where --no-substitute is not
passed while self-testing builds. This seems to have been relying on
offline detection and while it eventually passed, it was busted and
took ages.

Previously we used a nix install tarball built from nix 2.20.5,
download with flakehub.
That does not make sense for a lix installer, use Lix 2.90 beta 1
instead.
Also use this opportunity to remove the unused flake-compat input.

The `nix-installer-static` package is now named `lix-installer-static`.
However, the uninstall binary is still called `nix-installer`

The flake build relies on the name lix-installer.sh.
Rename nix-installer.sh to lix-installer.sh and, AFAICT,
all references

Not all references to the crate name were caught when it was changed.
Some tests rely on importing from `lix_installer` and filter directives
for the logs vary based on crate name.

When detsys-specific items were removed, some lines of JSON were
removed. This caused syntax errors due to the trailing commas.
Also use this opportunity to add `enable_flakes`, which is required
in new lix-installer plan files

Our goal is to deliver a solid experience with Nix flakes, including an upgrade path that is safe. Occasionally, the upstream Nix project may introduce regressions for the common flake path. This is not desirable for our users, who depend on a consistent and stable flakes experience.
Additionally, the Nix project isn't directly responsible for delivering updates to users as that role is delegated to the Nixpkgs project.
Overall, this means upgrades are not consistently delivered to users.
This update directs future update requests to install.determinate.systems, which we will upgrade as part of our standard release process.
Our standard release process includes proactive testing: validating our installer and Nix's behavior across a wide variety of platforms and scenarios.
After an update passes our proactive validation, we do a phased rollout of reactive monitoring: the update is released to a small percentage of users on GitHub Actions. We monitor the failure rate of the installer and overall workflows to ensure the updated Nix isn't causing widespread failure we weren't able to identify ahead of time.
Only after a release passes both proactive and reactive validation, our macOS .pkg and nix-upgrade paths are bumped to the most recent release. This gives user the confidence they're looking for that the Nix release they're getting is safe.
