jade 5f0ef50077 cli: eat terminal codes from stdout also
This *should* be sound, plus or minus the amount that the terminal code
eating code is messed up already.

This is useful for testing CLI output because it will strip the escapes
enough to just shove the expected output in a file.

jade 3daeeaefb1 build: implement clang-tidy using our plugin
The principle of this is that you can either externally build it with
Nix (actual implementation will be in a future commit), or it can be
built with meson if the Nix one is not passed in.

The idea I have is that dev shells don't receive the one from Nix to
avoid having to build it, but CI can use the one from Nix and save some
gratuitous rebuilds.

The design of this is that you can run `ninja -C build clang-tidy` and
it will simply correctly clang-tidy the codebase in spite of PCH
bullshit caused by the cc-wrapper.

This is a truly horrendous number of hacks in a ball, caused by bugs in
several pieces of software, and I am not even getting started.

I don't consider this to fix the clang-tidy issue filing, since we still
have a fair number of issues to fix even on the existing minimal
configuration, and I have not yet implemented it in CI. Realistically we
will need to do something like https://github.com/Ericsson/codechecker
to be able to silence warnings without physically touching the code, or
at least *diff* reports between versions.

Also, the run-clang-tidy output design is rather atrocious and must
not be inflicted upon anyone I have respect for, since it buries the
diagnostics in a pile of invocation logs. We would do really well to
integrate with the Gerrit SARIF stuff so we can dump the reports on
people in a user-friendly manner.

Max “Goldstein” Siling 1a6d7a3af4 src/libcmd/repl.cc: avoid unneeded reload after :e
If `:edit`ing a store path, don't reload repl afterwards
to avoid losing local variables: store is immutable,
so "editing" a store path is always just viewing it.

libstore/build: block io_uring
Unfortunately, io_uring is totally opaque to seccomp, and while currently there
are no dangerous operations implemented, there is no guarantee that it remains
this way. This means that io_uring should be blocked entirely to ensure that
the sandbox is future-proof. This has not been observed to cause issues in
practice.

Quantum Jump 6e0ca02425 Fix dry-run flag for nix-collect-garbage
`nix-collect-garbage --dry-run` previously elided the entire garbage
collection check, meaning that it would just exit the script without
printing anything.

This change makes the dry run flag instead set the GC action to
`gcReturnDead` rather than `gcDeleteDead`, and then continue with the
script. So if you set `--dry-run`, it will print the paths it *would*
have garbage collected, but not actually delete them.

I filed a bug for this: #432 but then realised I could give fixing it a go myself.

libexpr/flake: allow automatic rejection of configuration options from flakes
The `allow-flake-configuration` option allows the user to control whether to
accept configuration options supplied by flakes. Unfortunately, setting this
to false really meant "ask each time" (with an option to remember the choice
for each specific option encountered). Let no mean no, and introduce (and
default to) a separate value for the "ask each time" behaviour.

Delan Azabani b2944d93a6 Reject fully-qualified URLs in 'from' argument of nix registry add
We previously allowed you to map any flake URL to any other flake URL,
including shorthand flakerefs, indirect flake URLs like `flake:nixpkgs`,
direct flake URLs like `github:NixOS/nixpkgs`, or local paths.

But flake registry entries mapping from direct flake URLs often come
from swapping the 'from' and 'to' arguments by accident, and even when
created intentionally, they may not actually work correctly.

This patch rejects those URLs (and fully-qualified flake: URLs), making
it harder to swap the arguments by accident.

Fixes #181.

alois31 f047e4357b libstore/build: always enable seccomp filtering and no-new-privileges
Seccomp filtering and the no-new-privileges functionality improve the security
of the sandbox, and have been enabled by default for a long time. In
#265 it was decided that they
should be enabled unconditionally. Accordingly, remove the allow-new-privileges
(which had weird behavior anyway) and filter-syscall settings, and force the
security features on. Syscall filtering can still be enabled at build time to
support building on architectures libseccomp doesn't support.

jade c97e17144e packaging: rename nixexpr -> lixexpr and so on
This breaks downstreams linking to us on purpose to make sure that if
someone is linking to Lix they're doing it on purpose and crucially not
mixing up Nix and Lix versions in compatibility code.

We still need to fix the internal includes to follow the same schema so
we can drop the single-level include system entirely. However, this
requires a little more effort.

This adds pkg-config for libfetchers and config.h.

Migration path:
expr.hh      -> lix/libexpr/expr.hh
nix/config.h -> lix/config.h

To apply this migration automatically, remove all `<nix/>` from
includes, so: `#include <nix/expr.hh>` -> `#include <expr.hh>`. Then,
the correct paths will be resolved from the tangled mess, and the
clang-tidy automated fix will work.

Then run the following for out of tree projects:

```
lix_root=$HOME/lix
(cd $lix_root/clang-tidy && nix develop -c 'meson setup build && ninja -C build')
run-clang-tidy -checks='-*,lix-fixincludes' -load=$lix_root/clang-tidy/build/liblix-clang-tidy.so -p build/ -fix src
```

I have run the addDrvOutputDependencies release note past Ericson since
I was confused by what the heck it was doing, and he was saying it was
reasonable.

Qyriad 20981461d4 print type and value in "flake attr is not a derivation" errors
This turns errors like:

error: flake output attribute 'hydraJobs' is not a derivation or path

into errors like:

error: expected flake output attribute 'hydraJobs' to be a derivation or
path but found a set: { binaryTarball = «thunk»; build = «thunk»; etc> }

This change affects all InstallableFlake commands.

Deprecate the online flake registries and vendor the default registry
Fixes #183, #110, #116.

The default flake-registry option becomes 'vendored', and refers
to a vendored flake-registry.json file in the install path.

Vendored copy of the flake-registry is from github:NixOS/flake-registry
at commit 9c69f7bd2363e71fe5cd7f608113290c7614dcdd.

jade 6d84d6bdc1 builtins: fix builtins.langVersion docs to state it's deprecated
This builtin was always a problem and nixpkgs uses it in exactly one
place, to give up if the Nix version is absurdly old. It has no other
use cases, and doesn't work in a multi-implementation world anyway.

nix3-build: show all FOD errors with --keep-going
Basically I'd expect the same behavior as with `nix-build`, i.e.
with `--keep-going` the hash-mismatch error of each failing
fixed-output derivation is shown.

The approach is derived from `Store::buildPaths` (`entry-point.cc`):
instead of throwing the first build-result, check if there are any build
errors and if so, display all of them and throw after that.

Unfortunately, the BuildResult struct doesn't have an `ErrorInfo`
(there's a FIXME for that at least), so I have to construct my own here.
This is a rather cheap bugfix and I decided against touching too many
parts of libstore for that (also I don't know if that's in line with the
ongoing refactoring work).

Closes #302

libutil: remove the interrupt-blocking code
The interrupt-blocking code was originally introduced 20 years ago so that
trying to log an error message does not result in an interrupt exception being
thrown and then going unhandled (c8d3882cdc).
However, the logging code does not check for interrupts any more
(054be50257), so this reasoning is no longer
applicable. Delete this code so that later interrupts are unblocked again, for
example in the next line entered into the repl.

Closes: #296

jade 748d8310fa Fix the pages in the manual for Lix
This doesn't comprehensively fix everything outdated in the manual, or
make the manual greatly better, but it does note down where at least
jade noticed it was wrong, and it does fix all the instances of
referencing Nix to conform to the style guide to the best of our
ability.

A lot of things have been commented out for being wrong, and there are
three types of FIXME introduced:

- FIXME(Lix): generically Lix needs to fix it
- FIXME(Qyriad): re #215
- FIXME(meson): docs got outdated by meson changes and need rewriting

I did fix a bunch of it that I could, but there could certainly be
mistakes and this is definitely just an incremental improvement.

Maximilian Bosch 0e38720502 Revert "Revert "Merge pull request #6621 from Kha/nested-follows""
This reverts commit a8b3d777fb.

This undoes the revert of PR#6621, which allows nested `follows`, i.e.

    {
      inputs = {
        foo.url = "github:bar/foo";
        foo.inputs.bar.inputs.nixpkgs = "nixpkgs";
      };
    }

does the expected thing now. This is useful to avoid the 1000 instances
of nixpkgs problem without having each flake in the dependency tree to
expose all of its transitive dependencies for modification.

This was in fact part of Nix before and the C++ changes applied w/o
conflicts. However, it got reverted then because people didn't want to
merge lazy-trees against it which was supposed to be merged soon back in
October 2022.
