This adds a new temp-dir setting for controlling the temporary directory
without having to change the TMPDIR env var. This can be used to e.g.
use a path on a case-sensitive store on macOS for temporary files
without changing the TMPDIR var used by interactive shells or commands
invoked with `nix run`.
This also stops unsetting `TMPDIR` on darwin when the env var value
starts with `/var/folders/`, preferring instead to just do the check
when reading `TMPDIR`. This way the inherited `TMPDIR` env var is
preserved for child processes (such as interactive shells).
As a side effect this changes the behavior of `nix-build -o ''` to act
like `nix-build --no-out-link` instead of failing with an error caused
by trying to create a symlink at the cwd.

don't pause the entire curl thread. we have multiple consumer threads
after all, not just one, so stalling all of them is likely not great.
note that libcurl advises against using transfer pauses if compressed
encodings are allowed and automatically decoded. this should not lead
to problems in practice because our data is usually not compressed to
such a degree that curl buffering *uncompressed* data matters. should
this cause problems we can reintroduce the whole-thread pause, but we
will probably get away with this until the entire file transfer class
is made kj::Promise-using async (and *then* curl can be hardpaused if
it cannot get rid of its data, solving the problem once and for all).

it's no longer needed. `download` can do everything `enqueueDownload`
did, and a lot more. e.g. not block the calling thread, for instance.

return it as a separate item in a pair instead. this will let us remove
enqueueDownload() in favor of returning metadata from download() itself

it's just a uri and some headers now. those can be function arguments
with no loss of clarity. *actual* additional arguments, for example a
TLS context with additional certificates, could be added on a new and
improved FileTransfer class that carries not just a backend reference
but some real, visible context for its transfers. curl not being very
multi-threading-friendly when using multi handles will make sharing a
bit hard anyway once we drop the single global download worker thread

we don't even need this outside of tests. maybe we should not do

instead? at some point we may have to do this, but not just yet.

Only overridden settings are sent to the daemon, and we're going to do the same

fact consistently marked as such, so that they actually get sent.

There was a bug report about a potential call to `memcpy` with a null
pointer which is not reproducible:
#492
This occurred in `src/libstore/filetransfer.cc` in `InnerSource::read`.
To ensure that this doesn't happen, an early return is added before
calling `memcpy` if the length of the data to be copied is 0.
This change also adds a test that ensures that when `InnerSource::read`
is called with an empty file, it throws an `EndOfFile` exception.

This:
- Converts a bunch of C style casts into C++ casts.
- Removes some very silly pointer subtraction code (which is no more or
less busted on i686 than it began)
- Fixes some "technically UB" that never had to be UB in the first
place.
- Makes finally follow the noexcept status of the inner function. Maybe
in the future we should ban the function from not being noexcept, but
that is not today.
- Makes various locally-used exceptions inherit from std::exception.

this is cursed. deeply and profoundly cursed. under NO CIRCUMSTANCES
must protocol serializer helpers be applied to temporaries! doing so
will inevitably cause dangling references and cause the entire thing
to crash. we need to do this even so to get rid of boost coroutines,
and likewise to encapsulate the serializers we suffer today at least
a little bit to allow a gradual migration to an actual IPC protocol.
(this isn't a problem that's unique to generators. c++ coroutines in
general cannot safely take references to arbitrary temporaries since
c++ does not have a lifetime system that can make this safe. -sigh-)

while refactoring the curl wrapper we inadvertently broken the immutable
flake protocol, because the immutable flake protocol accumulates headers
across the entire redirect chain instead of using only the headers given
in the final response of the chain. this is a problem because Some Known
Providers Of Flake Infrastructure set rel=immutable link headers only in
the penultimate entry of the redirect chain, and curl does not regard it
as worth returning to us via its response header enumeration mechanisms.

This is nonsensical since selecting outputs can only be done for a
buildable derivation, not for a realised store path. The build worker
side of things ends up crashing with an assertion when trying to handle
such malformed paths.

Very basic behavior test to ensure that gzip data gets internally
decompressed by the file transfer pipeline.
Change a std::string_view return value in the test harness to
std::string. I wouldn't call myself a C++ beginner and I still managed
to shoot myself in the foot like three times with the lifetime
managements there (e.g. [&] { return an_std_string; } ends up with a
dangling string_view!).

not doing this will cause transfers that had their readers disappear to
linger. with lingering transfers the curl thread can't shut down, which
will cause nix itself to not shut down until the transfer finishes some
other way (most likely network timeouts). also add a new test for this.

As discussed in the maintainer meeting on 2024-01-29.
Mainly this is to avoid a situation where the name is parsed and
treated as a file name, mostly to protect users.
.-* and ..-* are also considered invalid because they might strip
on that separator to remove versions. Doesn't really work, but that's
what we decided, and I won't argue with it, because .-* probably
doesn't seem to have a real world application anyway.
We do still permit a 1-character name that's just "-", which still
poses a similar risk in such a situation. We can't start disallowing
trailing -, because a non-zero number of users will need it and we've
seen how annoying and painful such a change is.
What matters most is preventing a situation where . or .. can be
injected, and to just get this done.

When reviewing old PRs, I found that #9997 adds some code to ensure one
particular assert is always present. But, removing asserts isn't
something we do in our own release builds either in the flake here or in
nixpkgs, and is plainly a bad idea that increases support burden,
especially if other distros make bad choices of build flags in their Nix
packaging.
For context, the assert macro in the C standard is defined to do nothing
if NDEBUG is set.
There is no way in our build system to set -DNDEBUG without manually
adding it to CFLAGS, so this is simply a configuration we do not use.
Let's ban it at compile time.
I put this preprocessor directive in src/libutil.cc because it is not
obvious where else to put it, and it seems like the most logical file
since you are not getting a usable nix without it.
