Extend `FSAccessor::readFile` to allow not checking that the path is a valid one, and rewrite `readInvalidDerivation` using this extended `readFile`. Several places in the code use `readInvalidDerivation`, either because they need to read a derivation that has been written in the store but not registered yet, or more generally to prevent a deadlock because `readDerivation` tries to lock the state, so can't be called from a place where the lock is already held. However, `readInvalidDerivation` implicitely assumes that the store is a `LocalFSStore`, which isn't always the case. The concrete motivation for this is that it's required for `nix copy --from someBinaryCache` to work, which is tremendously useful for the tests. |
