jade dcc7ea5498 release notes: add a bunch of them
Also fix typos introduced by the commits I read.

I have run the addDrvOutputDependencies release note past Ericson since
I was confused by what the heck it was doing, and he was saying it was
reasonable.

Qyriad 6881476232 libfetchers: fallback to memory SQLite if fs IO fails
nix::fetchers::CacheImpl uses $XDG_CACHE_HOME, or its default based on
$HOME, to store its SQLite database. If the current process can't write
to that directory for whatever reason, though, any eval-time fetching
would fail just initializing the cache.

With this change, IO errors initializing the fetcher cache are logged
but ignored, and nix::fetchers::CacheImpl falls back to an in-memory¹
database instead.

Notably, this will fix any uses eval fetching while Lix itself is being
run in a derivation builder (such as during tests), as the derivation
builder does not set $XDG_CACHE_HOME, and sets $HOME to the non-existent
directory /homeless-shelter.

Before:

$ env -u XDG_CACHE_HOME HOME=/homeless-shelter nix -Lv eval --impure -E 'fetchTarball "https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/archive/main.tar.gz"'
error:
       … while calling the 'fetchTarball' builtin

After:

$ env -u XDG_CACHE_HOME HOME=/homeless-shelter nix -Lv eval --impure -E 'fetchTarball "https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/archive/main.tar.gz"'

Qyriad 20981461d4 print type and value in "flake attr is not a derivation" errors
This turns errors like:

error: flake output attribute 'hydraJobs' is not a derivation or path

into errors like:

error: expected flake output attribute 'hydraJobs' to be a derivation or
path but found a set: { binaryTarball = «thunk»; build = «thunk»; etc> }

This change affects all InstallableFlake commands.

libutil: Create chmodPath function
Move the identical static `chmod_` functions in libstore to
libutil. the function is called `chmodPath` instead of `chmod`
as otherwise it will shadow the standard library chmod in the nix
namespace, which is somewhat confusing.

Qyriad 4eb6779ea8 fix -Wdeprecated-copy on clang (BaseError copy assignment)
2bbe3efd1¹ added the -Wdeprecated-copy warning, and fixed the instances
of it which GCC warned about, in HintFmt and ref<T>. However, when
building with Clang, there is an additional deprecated-copy warning in
BaseError. This commit explicitly defaults the copy assignment operator
for BaseError and silences this warning.

eldritch horrors 774c56094f libstore: fix old RemoteStore::addToStore serializer
having the serializer write into `*conn` is not legal because we are
in a sinkToSource that will be drained by the remote we're connected
to. writing into `*conn` directly can break the framing protocol. it
is unlikely this code was ever run: to protocol it caters to is from
2016(!) and thoroughly untested in-tree, and since it's been present
since nix 2.17 and the 1.18 protocol broken here is nix 2.0 we might
safely assume that daemons older than nix 2.1 are no longer used now

see also #325 (though that wants <2.3 gone, this is sadly only <2.1)

Alyssa Ross 139d31f876 Improve nix-store --delete failure message
On several occasions I've found myself confused when trying to delete
a store path, because I am told it's still alive, but
nix-store --query --roots doesn't show anything.  Let's save future
users this confusion by mentioning that a path might be alive due to
having referrers, not just roots.

These commands outputs data that may not end with a newline. This
causes problems when the progress bar redraws, as that completely
wipes the last line of output. As nix key generate-secret outputs
a single line of text with no output, it shows up entirely blank,
making it look like nothing happened.

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.

place, to give up if the Nix version is absurdly old. It has no other
use cases, and doesn't work in a multi-implementation world anyway.

FireFly eca8bce081 lix-doc: don't chomp bold headings off
There are a few places in nixpkgs lib where `**Foo**:` is used as a heading instead of the usual markdown `# Foo` ones. I think this is intentional with how it gets rendered in the manual, e.g. [`lib.lists.sortOn`][1].

[1]: https://nixos.org/manual/nixpkgs/stable/#function-library-lib.lists.sortOn

`nix-doc` prints this as
```
   *Laws**:
       ```nix
       sortOn f == sort (p: q: f p < f q)
       ```
```
chomping off the first asterisk as part of `cleanup_single_line` that's meant to deal with `/** \n * \n * \n */` style doc comments. This also means the usage in lix ends up funny-looking with a trailing asterisk as if there's a footnote to pay attention to (which is how I first noticed it, heh)

The fix:

When cleaning up a single line and removing a prefix comment character,
ensure it's followed by whitespace (or the last character of the line).

jade 7cfaf057e3 release-notes: build unreleased release notes by default
Surely if you have unreleased changes you want them on a page right?

`officialRelease` means "this is a *release version*", which is a
reasonable case to not want it, but we are not that here.

I understand wanting to be able to turn it off for deps reasons or
something, but other than that, uhh, seems better to just turn it on
always; it is basically free compute-wise to the point we run it on
pre-commit.
