First, logic is consolidated in the shell script instead of being spread
between them and makefiles. That makes understanding what is going on a
little easier.
This would not be super interesting by itself, but it gives us a way to
debug tests more easily. *That* in turn I hope is much more compelling.
See the updated manual for details.

They did not include the detailed error message, losing essential
information for troubleshooting.
Example message:
warning: creating statement 'insert or rplace into NARs(cache, hashPart, namePart, url, compression, fileHash, fileSize, narHash, narSize, refs, deriver, sigs, ca, timestamp, present) values (?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, 1)': at offset 10: SQL logic error, near "rplace": syntax error (in '/tmp/nix-shell.grQ6f7/nix-test/tests/binary-cache/test-home/.cache/nix/binary-cache-v6.sqlite')
It's not the best example; more important information will be in
the message for e.g. a constraint violation.
I don't see why this specific error is printed as a warning, but
that's for another commit.
Unsetting `build-users-group` (without `auto-allocate-uids` enabled)
gives the following error:
```
src/libstore/lock.cc:25: static std::unique_ptr<nix::UserLock> nix::SimpleUserLock::acquire(): Assertion `settings.buildUsersGroup != ""' failed.
```
Fix the logic in `useBuildUsers` and document the default value
for `build-users-group`.
This makes the position object used in exceptions abstract, with a
method getSource() to get the source code of the file in which the
error originated. This is needed for lazy trees because source files
don't necessarily exist in the filesystem, and we don't want to make
libutil depend on the InputAccessor type in libfetcher.
Make everything be in the form "while ..." (most things were already),
and in particular *don't* use other propositions that must go after or
before specific "while ..." clauses to make sense.
