we already normalize attr order to lexicographic, doing the same for
formals makes sense. doubly so because the order of formals would
otherwise depend on the context of the expression, which is not quite as
useful as one might expect.

the parser modifies its inputs, which means that sharing them between
the error context reporting system and the parser itself can confuse the
reporting system. usually this led to early truncation of error context
reports which, while not dangerous, can be quite confusing.

vfork confers a large performance advantage over fork, measured locally
at 16µs per vfork agains 90µs per fork. however nix *almost always*
follows a vfork up with an execve-family call, melting the performance
advantage from 6x to only 15%. in most of those cases it's doing things
that are undefined behavior (like manipulating the heap, or even
throwing exceptions and trashing the parent process stack).
most notably the one place that could benefit from the vfork performance
improvement is linux derivation sandbox setup—which doesn't use vfork.

This builtin is only going to cause us problems because we are not Nix,
so let's just falsify being in the 2.18 series, since that is the
closest target that has any meaning.
In future we might want to have a better feature detection mechanism,
for when we actually add stuff to some builtin's attr set argument. But
builtins.nixVersion is just going to be hopelessly broken and it should
be stubbed out.

diagnose attr duplication at the path the duplication was detected, not
at the path the current attribute wanted to place. doing the latter is
only correct if a leaf attribute was duplicated, not if an attrpath was
set to a non-attrset in one binding and a (potentially implied) attrset
in another binding.

using the total-attrs-printed and total-list-items-printed counters to
calculate how many attrs were elided only works properly if no nesting
is involved. once things do nest the global counter can exceed the size
of the currently printed object, leading to unsigned wrapping and great
overestimation of elided counts. counting locally in addition to global
counts fixes this.
these are functional tests because creating these objects requires the
evaluator to not be a huge amount of code, and we also want defaults to
be tested for cli usage.

deduplication does not currently work fully, showing derivations
multiple times if they have different underlying values. this can happen
by selecting the same derivation twice for two different attributes of a
set, using inherit-from (which reduces to the previous), importing
nixpkgs twice, or any other number of things.
since users already have to deal with duplicates for this reason it
won't hurt to add *more* duplicates. the alternative would be to
deduplicate fully, which would drop derivations that are currently
returned and those pose a regression risk.

While preparing PRs like #9753, I've had to change error messages in
dozens of code paths. It would be nice if instead of
EvalError("expected 'boolean' but found '%1%'", showType(v))
we could write
TypeError(v, "boolean")
or similar. Then, changing the error message could be a mechanical
refactor with the compiler pointing out places the constructor needs to
be changed, rather than the error-prone process of grepping through the
codebase. Structured errors would also help prevent the "same" error
from having multiple slightly different messages, and could be a first
step towards error codes / an error index.
This PR reworks the exception infrastructure in `libexpr` to
support exception types with different constructor signatures than
`BaseError`. Actually refactoring the exceptions to use structured data
will come in a future PR (this one is big enough already, as it has to
touch every exception in `libexpr`).
The core design is in `eval-error.hh`. Generally, errors like this:
state.error("'%s' is not a string", getAttrPathStr())
.debugThrow<TypeError>()
are transformed like this:
state.error<TypeError>("'%s' is not a string", getAttrPathStr())
.debugThrow()
The type annotation has moved from `ErrorBuilder::debugThrow` to
`EvalState::error`.

`nix eval` forces values and prints derivations as attribute sets, so
commands that print derivations (e.g. `nix eval nixpkgs#bash`) will
infinitely loop and segfault.
Printing derivations as `.drv` paths makes `nix eval` complete as
expected. Further work is needed, but this is better than a segfault.

Previously, there were two mostly-identical value printers -- one in
`libexpr/eval.cc` (which didn't force values) and one in
`libcmd/repl.cc` (which did force values and also printed ANSI color
codes).
This PR unifies both of these printers into `print.cc` and provides a
`PrintOptions` struct for controlling the output, which allows for
toggling whether values are forced, whether repeated values are tracked,
and whether ANSI color codes are displayed.
Additionally, `PrintOptions` allows tuning the maximum number of
attributes, list items, and bytes in a string that will be displayed;
this makes it ideal for contexts where printing too much output (e.g.
all of Nixpkgs) is distracting. (As requested by @roberth in
https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/9554#issuecomment-1845095735)
Please read the tests for example output.
Future work:
- It would be nice to provide this function as a builtin, perhaps
`builtins.toStringDebug` -- a printing function that never fails would
be useful when debugging Nix code.
- It would be nice to support customizing `PrintOptions` members on the
command line, e.g. `--option to-string-max-attrs 1000`.

When reviewing old PRs, I found that #9997 adds some code to ensure one
particular assert is always present. But, removing asserts isn't
something we do in our own release builds either in the flake here or in
nixpkgs, and is plainly a bad idea that increases support burden,
especially if other distros make bad choices of build flags in their Nix
packaging.
For context, the assert macro in the C standard is defined to do nothing
if NDEBUG is set.
There is no way in our build system to set -DNDEBUG without manually
adding it to CFLAGS, so this is simply a configuration we do not use.
Let's ban it at compile time.
I put this preprocessor directive in src/libutil.cc because it is not
obvious where else to put it, and it seems like the most logical file
since you are not getting a usable nix without it.
