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.

piegames ec7552ff74 libexpr/parser: Test experimental features
Currently, the parser relies on the global experimental feature flags.
In order to properly test conditional language features, we instead need
to pass it around in the parser::State.

This means that the parser cannot cache the result of isEnabled anymore,
which wouldn't necessarily hurt performance if the function didn't
perform a linear search on the list of enabled features on every single
call. While we could simply evaluate once at the start of parsing and
cache the result in the parser state, the more sustainable solution
would be to fix `isEnabled` such that all callers may profit from the
performance improvement.

libexpr/print: do not show elided nested items when there are none
When the configured maximum depth has been reached, attribute sets and lists
are printed with ellipsis to indicate the elision of nested items. Previously,
this happened even in case the structure being printed is empty, so that such
items do not in fact exist. This is confusing, so stop doing it.

libexpr/print: never show empty attrsets or derivations as «repeated»
The repeated value detection logic exists so that the occurrence of large
common substructures does not fill up the screen or the computer's memory.
However, empty attribute sets and derivations (when their detection is enabled)
are always cheap to print, and in practice I have observed them to make up a
significant majority of the cases where I was annoyed by the repeated value
detection kicking in. Furthermore, `nix-instantiate --eval` already disables
this logic for empty attribute sets, and empty lists are already exempted
everywhere. For these reasons, always print empty attribute sets and
derivations as what they are.

eldritch horrors a5d1f69841 libstore: generatorize protocol serializers
this is cursed. deeply and profoundly cursed. under NO CIRCUMSTANCES
must protocol serializer helpers be applied to temporaries! doing so
will inevitably cause dangling references and cause the entire thing
to crash. we need to do this even so to get rid of boost coroutines,
and likewise to encapsulate the serializers we suffer today at least
a little bit to allow a gradual migration to an actual IPC protocol.

(this isn't a problem that's unique to generators. c++ coroutines in
general cannot safely take references to arbitrary temporaries since
c++ does not have a lifetime system that can make this safe. -sigh-)

jade 917c9bdee7 language: cleanly ban integer overflows
This also bans various sneaking of negative numbers from the language
into unsuspecting builtins as was exposed while auditing the
consequences of changing the Nix language integer type to a newtype.

It's unlikely that this change comprehensively ensures correctness when
passing integers out of the Nix language and we should probably add a
checked-narrowing function or something similar, but that's out of scope
for the immediate change.

During the development of this I found a few fun facts about the
language:
- You could overflow integers by converting from unsigned JSON values.
- You could overflow unsigned integers by converting negative numbers
  into them when going into Nix config, into fetchTree, and into flake
  inputs.

  The flake inputs and Nix config cannot actually be tested properly
  since they both ban thunks, however, we put in checks anyway because
  it's possible these could somehow be used to do such shenanigans some
  other way.

Note that Lix has banned Nix language integer overflows since the very
first public beta, but threw a SIGILL about them because we run with
-fsanitize=signed-overflow -fsanitize-undefined-trap-on-error in
production builds. Since the Nix language uses signed integers, overflow
was simply undefined behaviour, and since we defined that to trap, it
did.

Trapping on it was a bad UX, but we didn't even entirely notice
that we had done this at all until it was reported as a bug a couple of
months later (which is, to be fair, that flag working as intended), and
it's got enough production time that, aside from code that is IMHO buggy
(and which is, in any case, not in nixpkgs) such as
lix-project/lix#445, we don't think
anyone doing anything reasonable actually depends on wrapping overflow.

Even for weird use cases such as doing funny bit crimes, it doesn't make
sense IMO to have wrapping behaviour, since two's complement arithmetic
overflow behaviour is so *aggressively* not what you want for *any* kind
of mathematics/algorithms. The Nix language exists for package
management, a domain where bit crimes are already only dubiously in
scope to begin with, and it makes a lot more sense for that domain for
the integers to never lose precision, either by throwing errors if they
would, or by being arbitrary-precision.

This change will be ported to CppNix as well, to maintain language
consistency.

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

eldritch horrors 73ddc4540f libutil: generator type with on-yield value mapping
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.

tree-wide: unify progress bar inactive and paused states
Previously, the progress bar had two subtly different states in which the bar
would not actually render, both with their own shortcomings: inactive (which
was irreversible) and paused (reversible, but swallowing logs). Furthermore,
there was no way of resetting the statistics, so a very bad solution was
implemented (243c0f18da) that would create a new
logger for each line of the repl, leaking the previous one and discarding the
value of printBuildLogs. Finally, if stderr was not attached to a TTY, the
update thread was started even though the logger was not active, violating the
invariant required by the destructor (which is not observed because the logger
is leaked).

In this commit, the two aforementioned states are unified into a single one,
which can be exited again, correctly upholds the invariant that the update
thread is only running while the progress bar is active, and does not swallow
logs. The latter change in behavior is not expected to be a problems in the
rare cases where the paused state was used before, since other loggers (like
the simple one) don't exhibit it anyway. The startProgressBar/stopProgressBar
API is removed due to being a footgun, and a new method for properly resetting
the progress is added.

alois31 3c0434999e tests/libcmd: set HOME to a temporary directory
The libcmd unit test creates files (more specifically, the fetcher cache) in
its home directory. In the single-user sandbox, this leads to the creation of
/homeless-shelter, since this is the default HOME and the root is writable.
Unfortunately, this conflicts with the assumption of the functional tests that
this directory does not exist. Use a different home directory to prevent these
test failures, and thus restore the ability to build inside the single-user
sandbox.

jade 0f99ed43f1 build-time: remove 20% more by PCH'ing C++ stdlib
It seems like someone implemented precompiled headers a long time ago
and then it never got ported to meson or maybe didn't work at all.

This is, however, blessedly easy to simply implement. I went looking for
`#define` that could affect the result of precompiling the headers, and
as far as I can tell we aren't doing any of that, so this should truly
just be free build time savings.

  Parsing (frontend):         1123.0 s

I wonder if the "regression" in codegen time is just doing the PCH
operation a few times, because meson does it per-target.

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
```

derived-path: refuse built derived path with a non-derivation base
Example: /nix/store/dr53sp25hyfsnzjpm8mh3r3y36vrw3ng-neovim-0.9.5^out

This is nonsensical since selecting outputs can only be done for a
buildable derivation, not for a realised store path. The build worker
side of things ends up crashing with an assertion when trying to handle
such malformed paths.
