John Ericson d93e76fbb8 Start cross-referencing experimental features
- Create a glossary entry for experimental features.

- Have the man page experimental feature notice link `nix-commmand`.

  (Eventually this should be programmed, based on whether the command is
  experimental, and if so what experimental feature does it depend on.)

- Document which installables depend on which experimental features.

  I tried to use the same style (bold warning and block quote) that the
  top of the man page uses.

John Ericson 450e5ec618 Do not gate or hide experimental settings
This is somewhat hacky fix just for 2.15. I unintentionally hid them
from the manual, when no one wanted to hide them that (including
myself). I also required the experimental feature to be enabled in an
order-dependent way, which is not good.

The simplest fix for this immanent release is just to always show them,
and always allow them to be set.

Effectively undoes some changes from aa663b7e89

Warn after a second of being busy instead of immediately.
Getting the occasional SQLITE_BUSY is expected when the database is being
accessed concurrently. The retry will likely succeed so it is pointless to warn
immediately. Instead we track how long each retrySQLite block has been running,
and only begin warning after a second has elapsed (and then every 10 seconds
subsequently).

No behavior should be changed in this commit.

Finish converting existing comments for internal API docs (#8146)
* Finish converting existing comments for internal API docs

99% of this was just reformatting existing comments. Only two exceptions:

- Expanded upon `BuildResult::status` compat note

- Split up file-level `symbol-table.hh` doc comments to get
  per-definition docs

Also fixed a few whitespace goofs, turning leading tabs to spaces and
removing trailing spaces.

Picking up from #8133

* Fix two things from comments

* Use triple-backtick not indent for `dumpPath`

* Convert GNU-style `\`..'` quotes to markdown style in API docs

This will render correctly.

is brand new in this PR.

`nix show-derivation --help` currently has the sole public documentation
of this format, it is updated accordingly.

Théophane Hufschmitt 214f1d6791 Rename and protect BufferedSink::write
The `write` name is ambiguous and could lead to some funny bugs like
https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/8173#issuecomment-1500009480. So
rename it to the more explicit `writeUnbuffered`.
Besides, this method shouldn't be (and isn't) used outside of the class
implementation, so mark it `protected`.

This makes it more symetrical to `BufferedSource` which uses a
`protected readUnbuffered` method.

matthewcroughan 9207f94582 Add Store::isTrustedClient()
This function returns true or false depending on whether the Nix client
is trusted or not. Mostly relevant when speaking to a remote store with
a daemon.

We include this information in `nix ping store` and `nix doctor`

John Ericson bc192a95ef Describe active experimental features in the contributing guide
They are put in the manual separate pages under the new overarching
description of experimental features.

The settings page just lists the valid experimental feature names (so
people know what a valid setting entry looks like), with links to those
pages. It doesn't attempt to describe each experimental feature as that
is too much information for the configuration settings section.

Théophane Hufschmitt faefaac875 Explicitely define LockFile::operator!=
It should be syntethised in terms of `operator==`, but the GCC version
used on aarch64-linux doesn't implement that (see
https://hydra.nixos.org/build/214848896=. So explicitely define it.
