nix3-profile automatically migrates any profile its used on to its style
of profile -- the ones with manifest.json instead of manifest.nix. On
non-NixOS systems, Nix is conventionally installed to the profile at
/nix/var/nix/profiles/default, so if a user passed that to `--profile`
of `nix profile`, then it would break upgrade-nix from ever working
again, without recreating the profile.
This commit fixes that, and allows upgrade-nix to work on either kind of
profile.
Fixes#16.

Notably, ProfileManifest and ProfileElement are useful generic
profile management code, and nix profile is not the only place in the
codebase where profiles are relevant.
This commit is in preparation for fixing upgrade-nix's interaction with
new-style profiles.

This replaces the external sandbox-exec call with direct calls into
libsandbox. This API is technically deprecated and is missing some
prototypes, but all major browsers depend on it, so it is unlikely to
materially change without warning.
This commit also ensures the netrc file is only written if the
derivation is in fact meant to be able to access the internet.
This change commits a sin of not actually actively declaring its
dependency on macOS's libsandbox.dylib; this is due to the dylib
cache in macOS making that explicit dependency unnecessary. In the
future this might become a problem, so this commit marks our sins.

That's expected by `build-remote` and makes sure that errors are
correctly forwarded to the user. For instance, let's say that the
host-key of `example.org` is unknown and
nix-build ../nixpkgs -A hello -j0 --builders 'ssh-ng://example.org'
is issued, then you get the following output:
cannot build on 'ssh-ng://example.org?&': error: failed to start SSH connection to 'example.org'
Failed to find a machine for remote build!

2 available machines:
[...]
The relevant information (`Host key verification failed`) ends up in the
daemon's log, but that's not very obvious considering that the daemon
isn't very chatty normally.
This can be fixed - the same way as its done for legacy-ssh - by passing
fd 4 to the SSH wrapper. Now you'd get the following error:
cannot build on 'ssh-ng://example.org': error: failed to start SSH connection to 'example.org': Host key verification failed.
Failed to find a machine for remote build!
[...]
...and now it's clear what's wrong.
Please note that this is won't end up in the derivation's log.

only decompress the response once all data has been received (in the
fully buffered case), or at least outside of the curl wrapper itself
(in the receive-to-sink case). unfortunately this means we will have
to duplicate decompression logic for these two cases for time being,
but once the curl wrapper has been rewritten to return a real future
or Source we can deduplicate this logic again. the curl wrapper will
have to turn into a proper Source first and use decompression source
logic which also does not currently exist—only decompression *sinks*

this is highly questionable. single-arg download calls will misbehave

an implementation detail this should not have been in the API at all.

this lets each implementation of FileTransfer (of which currently only
the one exists at all) implement appropriate handling for its internal
behaviours that are not otherwise exposed. in curl this lets us switch
the buffer-full handling method from "block the entire curl thread" to
"pause just the one transfer", move the non-libcurl body decompression
out of the actual curl wrapper (which will let us eventually morph the
curl wrapper intto an actual source of Sources), and some other things

Previously, the garbage collector found runtime roots on Darwin by
shelling out to `lsof -n -w -F n` then parsing the result.
However, this requires an lsof binary and can be extremely slow.
The official Apple lsof returns in a reasonable amount of time,
about 250ms in my tests, but the lsof packaged in nixpkgs is quite slow,
taking about 40 seconds to run the command.
Using libproc directly is about the same speed as Apple lsof,
and allows us to reënable several tests that were disabled on Darwin.

just accumulate error data into result.data as we would for successful
transfers without a dataCallback. errorSink and data would contain the
same data in error cases anyway, so splitting them is not very useful.

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.

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.

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).

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.

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

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

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...

* changes:
meson: fix log-dir
manual: build docs with dummy envs
libcmd: install generated headers as well
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.

Previously, errors while printing values in `nix repl` would be printed
in `«error: ...»` brackets rather than displayed normally:
```

```
Now, errors will be displayed normally if they're emitted at the
top-level of an expression:
```

Adds a `repl-overlays` option, which specifies files that can overlay
and modify the top-level bindings in `nix repl`. For example, with the
following contents in `~/.config/nix/repl.nix`:
info: final: prev: let
optionalAttrs = predicate: attrs:
if predicate
then attrs
else {};
in
optionalAttrs (prev ? legacyPackages && prev.legacyPackages ? ${info.currentSystem})
{
pkgs = prev.legacyPackages.${info.currentSystem};
}
We can run `nix repl` and use `pkgs` to refer to `legacyPackages.${currentSystem}`:
$ nix repl --repl-overlays ~/.config/nix/repl.nix nixpkgs
Lix 2.90.0
