wrap all curl pointers in unique pointers for move correctness. the
destructor of TransferItem can go away completely since it does not
do anything special any more: memory bookkeeping is done using raii
wrappers, and its effects on the transfer state are not observable.
only TransferSource inspects the result, and even it does not check
for transfer results in its own destructor (only during transfers).

keep the download buffer in TransferItem. keep only *one* download
buffer (not one for success returns and one for failures). we also
remove the asynchronous callbacks since they are no longer needed.

when no custom READFUNCTION is set curl will fall back to using its
READDATA as a FILE pointer and calling fread on it to retrieve data
to send to the peer. we can wrap our upload data in a FILE pointer.
doing so also allows for upload retries, but we don't do that here.

The progress bar is not supposed to show very short activities (<10ms) in order
to prevent excessive flickering. This behaviour was inadvertedly disabled in
commit da4e46dd1f due to not actually skipping
the short activity after calculating that it should have been. Fix this
oversight.

* changes:
libexpr: generate builtins from data
treewide: generate global settings from data
libutil: generate experimental and deprecated features from data
this function is called only once per object lifetime, and it's no
longer written such that it must be called by the curl thread. all
curl options set here are independent of the multi handle, there's
no good reason any more to split the constructor in two like that.
Change-Id: Ibfa9075bc1cfdbab979f995c5a942b47add9789d
this simplifies the immediate curl wrappers significantly and clarifies
control flow for retries. we can almost see the promise land from here!

future changes will need to add template functions to this class, which
cannot be done for classes declared locally in unctions. otherwise this
is mostly code motion to clean up enqueueFileTransfer a little further.

it's used only once, and the transfer is used for something else
afterwards as well. returning it hides that the same transfer is
being returned unchanged, and pointlessly extends the signature.

we only wait for the worker thread to remove the handle from its multi
and then signal us back. after that's done the transfer can be cleaned
up independently of the multi handle and no transfer progress is made.
we also no longer remove transfer items from multi handles in the item
destructor; only the worker thread can add a transfer and as such only
the worker thread should be responsible for removing them again later.

this only ever worked for empty uploads, and there it worked only by
complete accident: curl was asked to send more data than the wrapper
would provide, which curl would not like and report as an error. the
error would cause a retry with even less data to send, until finally
failing by running into the retry limit. let's just forbid all this.

we'll need this shared code for kjified transfers that don't use
sources. it's a while out, but we can clean this up now already.

since 4ae6fb5a8f dropping a source of a
download might not properly cancel the associated curl transfer after
the transfer was paused. we have also not unpaused the transfer often
enough, only if the transfer buffer had been drained in its entirety.

Most builtins are now generated from data too, with two exceptions:
* Undocumented builtins, since supporting them would add complexity to the
generator, the harms of the current implementation mostly don't apply, and
the proper fix is to document them.
* `derivation` is somewhat magic (it is a function, but defined in the code as
a constant), so the current treatment of having it separately documented is
kept (for now, at least).
Since it is slightly easier to do and probably a good idea anyway, the builtin
function registrations generated this way are now processed directly in code
and don't go through global variables any more.
Unfortunately, a slight breaking change is introduced because the order of the
builtins' names in the symbol table changes. Hopefully, this will turn out to
not matter in practice.

Currently, a bunch of documentation is generated by embedding parts of it in
the nix executable, getting it out again by running it, and then postprocessing
the output. This is bad, since it creates a pointless dependency of the
documentation on the executable, and also makes documentation generation
impossible when cross-compiling.
Instead, both the code and the documentation should be generated from data, see
#292 . Here we start applying
this approach to the experimental and deprecated features, which are done in
one go since the technical implementation is very similar.
Of course, the actual benefits are not realised yet, since the offending
pattern is used in several more places. These will be fixed later.

Commit 4dbbd721eb intended to mark all settings
as overridden when they are. Unfortunately, due to an oversight, this marking
was accidentally performed in the implementation details of non-appendable
options. Move it to the common codepath so that it works for appendable options
too.

So I recently saw it the first time in the wild, I liked that you get
interactively asked about the nix.conf settings from the flake, but
there were a few minor things that I'd like to see changed:
* The `(y/N)` was somewhere in the middle of the line. Moved it to
the end. At first I assumed it was a bug because another thread into
my terminal while I was answering the question.
* I had to say no four times for a single flake with two options. So if
you already know you don't want any of the config for _this_ flake, I
found a `No to all` switch that ignores the rest of the nix.conf
settings a little more ergonomic than having to stop the invocation,
looking up the exact wording of `--no-accept-flake-config` and
restarting it. Hence, I added it.
* Added a note where the choices which settings to trust are persisted.
My initial assumption was that this went into `nix.conf` which is not
writable on NixOS, so I said no there as well.

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.

libcurl may call callbacks during unpause. if libcurl calls these
callbacks often enough they may find that they've exhausted their
allotted buffer space, at which point they will call dataCallback
as provided in enqueueFileTransfer. download() provides callbacks
that have their own state locks and may call unpause on transfers
with *their* state locks they share with curlFileTransfer. it was
possible to cause a deadlock between these two if the curl worker
thread tried to provide some data to a callback with the transfer
state lock held and the user transfer simultaneously unpaused its
associated curl transfer, with its own state lock held. obviously
not a great situation, but avoidable by not holding any lock when
we unpause transfers and execute their callbacks, as is otherwise
the case when a transfer runs normally and is never paused at all

The devShell relied on several packages directly from `pkgs`
or used with a non-splice-aware functions.
These would be built for the host system, making them useless
in a devShell for the build system.
Make sure that all packages are for the build system when needed.
Some other minor changes also required:
* Make devShells use `clangStdenv` because GCC is currently broken
* Disable rr when making a cross stdenv
Change-Id: Iee5f8a1a0c594139a50f2261b203491bd1644866
The lix package currently fails unless it's using a clang stdenv.
However, the flake's cross build outputs (e.g. `packages.x86_64-linux.nix-armv7l-linux`)
used the default stdenv, normally gcc.
Replace this with clang to fix package build.
Also take this opportunity to remove the no longer necessary `useLLVM = true`
override on FreeBSD. Since 24.05, nixpkgs always sets `useLLVM = true`
on FreeBSD in `lib.systems.elaborate`.

This reverts commit 02c35ea9df.
Reason for revert: this code path is also used for `Input::getRev()`, i.e. flakes VCS revision validation, which, in the case of Git, are using SHA1.
As a result, this cause too much noise due to SHA1 revisions in Flakes.

random() is not thread-safe, it relies on global state, and calling it
from worker threads can result in multiple threads producing the same
value. It also doesn't guarantee unique values even in single-threaded
use.
Use an atomic counter for the use-case of generating temporary paths,
and switch to a thread-local RNG for the one remaining call.
This will probably fix https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/7273 though
I'm not willing to risk corrupting my store to find out.

Also tweak `pathAccessible` to ignore other relevant errors too. It was
documented as ignoring permission errors but it was only ignoring
`EPERM`, which comes from the darwin sandbox, and not ignoring `EACCESS`
which is the real permission error. I figured it also makes sense to
ignore `ELOOP`.

curl handles timeouts internally when it acts as the main event loop. we
only need to wake up to add new transfers to the multi handle or restart
an existing transfer that has passed its restart wait time. periodically
waking up is not required for curl, and we don't need it any more either

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).
