eldritch horrors 531d040e8c libutil: add async collection mechanism
like kj::joinPromisesFailFast this allows waiting for the results of
multiple promises at once, but unlike it not all input promises must
be complete (or any of them failed) for results to become available.

eldritch horrors ca9256a789 libutil: add an async semaphore implementation
like a normal semaphore, but with awaitable acquire actions. this is
primarily intended as an intermediate concurrency limiting device in
the Worker code, but it may find other uses over time. we do not use
std::counting_semaphore as a base because the counter of that is not
inspectable as will be needed for Worker. we also do not need atomic
operations for cross-thread consistency since we don't have multiple
threads (thanks to kj event loops being confined to a single thread)

jade 789b19a0cf util: fix brotli decompression of empty input
This caused an infinite loop before since it would just keep asking the
underlying source for more data.

In practice this happened because an HTTP server served a
response to a HEAD request (for which curl will not retrieve any body or
call our write callback function) with Content-Encoding: br, leading to
decompressing nothing at all and going into an infinite loop.

This adds a test to make sure none of our compression methods do that
again, as well as just patching the HTTP client to never feed empty data
into a compression algorithm (since they absolutely have the right to
throw CompressionError on unexpectedly-short streams!).

jade 4046e019ca tests/compression: rewrite
This test suite was in desperate need of using the parameterization
available with gtest, and was a bunch of useless duplicated code. At
least now it's not duplicated code, though it still probably should be
more full of property tests.

tree-wide: shuffle headers around for about 30s compile time
This didn't really feel so worth it afterwards, but I did untangle a
bunch of stuff that should not have been tangled.

The general gist of this change is that variant bullshit was causing a
bunch of compile time, and it seems like the only way to deal with
variant induced compile time is to keep variant types out of headers.
Explicit template instantiation seems to do nothing for them.

I also seem to have gotten some back-end time improvement from
explicitly instantiating regex, but I don't know why. There is no
corresponding front-end time improvement from it: regex is still at the
top of the sinners list.

treewide: fix a bunch of lints
Fixes:
- Identifiers starting with _ are prohibited
- Some driveby header dependency cleaning which wound up with doing some
  extra fixups.
- Fucking C style casts, man. C++ made these 1000% worse by letting you
  also do memory corruption with them with references.
  - Remove casts to Expr * where ExprBlackHole is an incomplete type by
    introducing an explicitly-cast eBlackHoleAddr as Expr *.
  - An incredibly illegal cast of the text bytes of the StorePath hash
    into a size_t directly. You can't DO THAT.

    Replaced with actually parsing the hash so we get 100% of the bits
    being entropy, then memcpying the start of the hash. If this shows
    up in a profile we should just make the hash parser faster with a
    lookup table or something sensible like that.
  - This horrendous bit of UB which I thankfully slapped a deprecation
    warning on, built, and it didn't trigger anywhere so it was dead
    code and I just deleted it. But holy crap you *cannot* do that.

    inline void mkString(const Symbol & s)
    {
        mkString(((const std::string &) s).c_str());
    }
- Some wrong lints. Lots of wrong macro lints, one wrong
  suspicious-sizeof lint triggered by the template being instantiated
  with only pointers, but the calculation being correct for both
  pointers and not-pointers.
- Exceptions in destructors strike again. I tried to catch the
  exceptions that might actually happen rather than all the exceptions
  imaginable. We can let the runtime hard-kill it on other exceptions
  imo.

libutil/config: unify path setting types
There have been multiple setting types for paths that are supposed to be
canonicalised, depending on whether zero or one, one, or any number of paths is
to be specified. Naturally, they behaved in slightly different ways in the
code. Simplify things by unifying them and removing special behaviour (mainly
the "multiple paths type can coerce to boolean" thing).

jade e34833c025 tree-wide: fix a pile of lints
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.

eldritch horrors df8851f286 libutil: rewrite RewritingSink as source
the rewriting sink was just broken. when given a rewrite set that
contained a key that is also a proper infix of another key it was
possible to produce an incorrectly rewritten result if the writer
used the wrong block size. fixing this duplicates rewriteStrings,
to avoid this we'll rewrite rewriteStrings to use RewritingSource
in a new mode that'll allow rewrites we had previously forbidden.

eldritch horrors 5eec6418de libutil: begin porting serialization to generators
generators are a better basis for serializers than streaming into sinks
as we do currently for many reasons, such as being usable as sources if
one wishes to (without requiring an intermediate sink to serialize full
data sets into memory, or boost coroutines to turn sinks into sources),
composing more naturally (as one can just yield a sub-generator instead
of being forced to wrap entire substreams into clunky functions or even
more clunky custom types to implement operator<< on), allowing wrappers
to transform data with clear ownership semantics (removing the need for
explicit memory allocations and Source wrappers), and many other things

this will be the basis of non-boost coroutines in lix. anything that is
a boost coroutine *should* be representable with a Generator coroutine,
and many things that are not currently boost coroutines but behave much
like one (such as, notably, serializers) should be as well. this allows
us to greatly simplify many things that look like iteration but aren't.

only two users of this function exist. only one used it in a way that
even bears resemblance to asynchronicity, and even that one didn't do
it right. fully async and parallel computation would have only worked
if any getEdgesAsync never calls the continuation it receives itself,
only from more derived callbacks running on other threads. calling it
directly would cause the decoupling promise to be awaited immediately
*on the original thread*, completely negating all nice async effects.

eldritch horrors d55b158e24 libutil: make rewriteStrings sound
this is used in CA rewriting, replacement of placeholders in
derivations, generating scripts for devShells, and some more
places. in all of these transitive replacements are unsound,
and overlapping replacements would be as well. there even is
a test that transitive replacements do not happen (in the CA
RewriteSink suite), but none for overlapping replacements. a
minimally surprising binary rewriter surely would not do any
of these replacements, the only reason we have not seen this
break yet is probably that rewriteStrings is only called for
store paths and things that look like store paths (and those
should never overlap nor admit such transitive replacements)

eldritch horrors 862f20a4ba libutil: remove Pool::flushBad
this was never actually used, and bad design in the first place—why
should a bad resource be put back into the idle pool? just drop it.

eldritch horrors 620de98d0c libutil: drop Pool resources on exceptional free
if a scope owning a resource does not gracefully drop that resource
while handling exceptions from deeper down the call stack we should
assume the resource is invalid state and drop it. currently it *is*
true that such cases do not cause resources to be freed, but thanks
to validator misuses this has so far not caused any larger problem.

The big ones here are `trim-trailing-whitespace` and `end-of-file-fixer`
(which makes sure that every file ends with exactly one newline
character).

jade 61e21b2557 Delete hasPrefix and hasSuffix from the codebase
These now have equivalents in the standard lib in C++20. This change was
performed with a custom clang-tidy check which I will submit later.
Executed like so:

ninja -C build && run-clang-tidy -checks='-*,nix-*' -load=build/libnix-clang-tidy.so -p .. -fix ../tests | tee -a clang-tidy-result

eldritch horrors c208e918e5 fix: nlohmann::adl_serializer for std::optional (#9147)
This allows templates such as `NLOHMANN_DEFINE_TYPE_*` templates and other generators with things like `std::vector<std::optional<T>>`.

John Ericson f7f37035c8 Move tests to separate directories, and document
Today, with the tests inside a `tests` intermingled with the
corresponding library's source code, we have a few problems:

- We have to be careful that wildcards don't end up with tests being
  built as part of Nix proper, or test headers being installed as part
  of Nix proper.

- Tests in libraries but not executables is not right:

  - It means each executable runs the previous unit tests again, because
    it needs the libraries.

  - It doesn't work right on Windows, which doesn't want you to load a
    DLL just for the side global variable . It could be made to work
    with the dlopen equivalent, but that's gross!

This reorg solves these problems.

There is a remaining problem which is that sibbling headers (like
`hash.hh` the test header vs `hash.hh` the main `libnixutil` header) end
up shadowing each other. This PR doesn't solve that. That is left as
future work for a future PR.
