I was packaging Lix 2.91 for nixpkgs and was annoyed at the expect
dependency. Turns out that you can replace unbuffer with a pretty-short
Python script.
It became less short after I found out that Linux was converting \n to
\r\n in the terminal subsystem, which was not very funny, but is at
least solved by twiddling termios bits.

This was always in the lock file and we can simply actually print it.
The test for this is a little bit silly but it should correctly
control for my daring to exercise timezone code *and* locale code in a
test, which I strongly suspect nobody dared do before.
Sample (abridged):

The original attempt at this introduced a regression; this commit
reverts the revert and fixes the regression.
This reverts commit 3e151d4d77.
Fix to the regression:
flakeref: fix handling of `?dir=` param for flakes in subdirs
As reported in #419[1], accessing a flake in a subdir of a Git
repository fails with the previous commit[2] applied with the error
error: unsupported Git input attribute 'dir'
The problem is that the `dir`-param is inserted into the parsed URL if a
flake is fetched from the subdir of a Git repository. However, for the
fetching part this isn't even needed. The fix is to just pass `subdir`
as second argument to `FlakeRef` (which needs a `basedir` that can be
empty) and leave the parsedURL as-is.
Added a regression test to make sure we don't run into this again.

`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.

This reverts commit 35eec921af.
Reason for revert: Regressed nix-eval-jobs, and it appears to be this change is buggy/missing a case. It just needs another pass.
Code causing the problem in n-e-j, when invoked with `nix-eval-jobs --flake '.#hydraJobs'`:
```
n-e-j/tests/assets » ../../build/src/nix-eval-jobs --meta --workers 1 --flake .#hydraJobs
warning: unknown setting 'trusted-users'
warning: `--gc-roots-dir' not specified
error: unsupported Git input attribute 'dir'
error: worker error: error: unsupported Git input attribute 'dir'
```
```
nix::Value *vRoot = [&]() {
if (args.flake) {
auto [flakeRef, fragment, outputSpec] =
nix::parseFlakeRefWithFragmentAndExtendedOutputsSpec(
args.releaseExpr, nix::absPath("."));
nix::InstallableFlake flake{
{}, state, std::move(flakeRef), fragment, outputSpec,
{}, {}, args.lockFlags};
return flake.toValue(*state).first;
} else {
return releaseExprTopLevelValue(*state, autoArgs, args);
}
}();
```
Inspecting the program behaviour reveals that `dir` was in fact set in the URL going into the fetcher. This is in turn because unlike in the case changed in this commit, it was not erased before handing it to libfetchers, which is probably just a mistake.

this is only used in one place, and only to set a nicer error message on
EndOfFile. the only caller that actually *catches* this exception should
provide an error message in that catch block rather than forcing support
for setting error message so deep into the stack. copyStorePath is never
called outside of PathSubstitutionGoal anyway, which catches everything.

The original idea was to fix lix#174, but for a user friendly solution,
I figured that we'd need more consistency:
* Invalid query params will cause an error, just like invalid
attributes. This has the following two consequences:
* The `?dir=`-param from flakes will be removed before the URL to be
fetched is passed to libfetchers.
* The tarball fetcher doesn't allow URLs with custom query params
anymore. I think this was questionable anyways given that an
arbitrary set of query params was silently removed from the URL you
wanted to fetch. The correct way is to use an attribute-set
with a key `url` that contains the tarball URL to fetch.
* Same for the git & mercurial fetchers: in that case it doesn't even
matter though: both fetchers added unused query params to the URL
that's passed from the input scheme to the fetcher (`url2` in the code).
It turns out that this was never used since the query parameters were
erased again in `getActualUrl`.
* Validation happens for both attributes and URLs. Previously, a lot of
fetchers validated e.g. refs/revs only when specified in a URL and
the validity of attribute names only in `inputFromAttrs`.
Now, all the validation is done in `inputFromAttrs` and `inputFromURL`
constructs attributes that will be passed to `inputFromAttrs`.
* Accept all attributes as URL query parameters. That also includes
lesser used ones such as `narHash`.
And "output" attributes like `lastModified`: these could be declared
already when declaring inputs as attribute rather than URL. Now the
behavior is at least consistent.
Personally, I think we should differentiate in the future between
"fetched input" (basically the attr-set that ends up in the lock-file)
and "unfetched input" earlier: both inputFrom{Attrs,URL} entrypoints
are probably OK for unfetched inputs, but for locked/fetched inputs
a custom entrypoint should be used. Then, the current entrypoints
wouldn't have to allow these attributes anymore.

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.

The fix for the Darwin vulnerability in ecdbc3b207
also broke setting `__sandboxProfile` when `sandbox=relaxed` or
`sandbox=false`. This cppnix change fixes `sandbox=relaxed` and
adds a suitable test.

Functional tests can be run with
`meson test -C build --suite installcheck`.
Notably, functional tests must be run *after* running `meson install`
(Lix's derivation runs the installcheck suite in installCheckPhase so it
does this correctly), due to some quirks between Meson and the testing
system.
As far as I can tell the functional tests are meant to be run after
installing anyway, but unfortunately I can't transparently make
`meson test --suite installcheck` depend on the install targets.
The script that runs the functional tests, meson/run-test.py, checks
that `meson install` has happened and fails fast with a (hopefully)
helpful error message if any of the functional tests are run before
installing.
