John Ericson f7f37035c8 Move tests to separate directories, and document
Today, with the tests inside a `tests` intermingled with the
corresponding library's source code, we have a few problems:

- We have to be careful that wildcards don't end up with tests being
  built as part of Nix proper, or test headers being installed as part
  of Nix proper.

- Tests in libraries but not executables is not right:

  - It means each executable runs the previous unit tests again, because
    it needs the libraries.

  - It doesn't work right on Windows, which doesn't want you to load a
    DLL just for the side global variable . It could be made to work
    with the dlopen equivalent, but that's gross!

This reorg solves these problems.

There is a remaining problem which is that sibbling headers (like
`hash.hh` the test header vs `hash.hh` the main `libnixutil` header) end
up shadowing each other. This PR doesn't solve that. That is left as
future work for a future PR.

John Ericson 30dcc19d1f Put functional tests in tests/functional
I think it is bad for these reasons when `tests/` contains a mix of
functional and integration tests

 - Concepts is harder to understand, the documentation makes a good
   unit vs functional vs integration distinction, but when the
   integration tests are just two subdirs within `tests/` this is not
   clear.

 - Source filtering in the `flake.nix` is more complex. We need to
   filter out some of the dirs from `tests/`, rather than simply pick
   the dirs we want and take all of them. This is a good sign the
   structure of what we are trying to do is not matching the structure
   of the files.

With this change we have a clean:
```shell-session
$ git show 'HEAD:tests'
tree HEAD:tests

functional/
installer/
nixos/
```

Robert Hensing 3384f70a3d nixpkgsLibTests: Only test our Nix
Interface has changed upstream.
It *should* be fine to test 23.05's other Nix versions as those
*should* succeed, but that's not the case and it's obfuscating
our terrible CI setup's log.

Robert Hensing b13fc7101f Add positive source filter
Source filtering is a really cool Nix feature that lets us avoid a
lot of rebuilds, which speeds up the iteration cycle a lot in cases
where the relevant source files aren't actually modified.

We used to have a source filter that marked a few files as irrelevant,
but this is the wrong approach, as we have many more files that are
irrelevant. We may call this negative filtering.

This commit switches the source filtering to positive filtering, which
is a lot more robust. Instead of marking which files we don't need
we marked the files that we do need.

It's a superior approach because it is fail safe. Instead of allowing
build performance problems to creep in over time, we require that all
source inputs are declared.

I shouldn't have to explain that declaring inputs is a good practice,
so I'll stop over-explaining here.

I do have to acknowledge that this will cause a build failure when the
filter is incomplete. This is *good*, because it's the only realistic
way we could be reminded of these problems. These events will be
infrequent, so the small cost of extending the filter is worth it,
compared to the hidden cost of longer dev cycles for things like tests,
docker image, etc, etc.

(Also rebuilding Nix for stupid unnecessary reasons makes my blood boil)

Eelco Dolstra 1ad3328c5e Allow tarball URLs to redirect to a lockable immutable URL
Previously, for tarball flakes, we recorded the original URL of the
tarball flake, rather than the URL to which it ultimately
redirects. Thus, a flake URL like
http://example.org/patchelf-latest.tar that redirects to
http://example.org/patchelf-<revision>.tar was not really usable. We
couldn't record the redirected URL, because sites like GitHub redirect
to CDN URLs that we can't rely on to be stable.

So now we use the redirected URL only if the server returns the
`x-nix-is-immutable` or `x-amz-meta-nix-is-immutable` headers in its
response.

John Ericson 6910f5dcb6 Generate API docs with Doxygen
The motivation is as stated in issue #7814: even though the the C++ API
is internal and unstable, people still want it to be well documented for
sake of learning, code review, and other purposes that aren't predicated
on it being stable.

Fixes #7814

Eelco Dolstra 693b1be81f Run 'make installcheck' again
This was failing because the check for the existence of the
'installcheck' target failed silently, so the whole phase got
skipped. It works by running 'make -n installcheck 2> /dev/null',
which however barfs with

Robert Hensing 8648ebc2cc Add ./configure --disable-tests option
Building without tests is useful for bootstrapping with a smaller footprint
or running the tests in a separate derivation. Otherwise, we do compile and
run them.

This isn't fine grained as to allow picking `check` but not `installcheck`
or vice versa, but it's good enough for now.

I've tried to use Nixpkgs' `checkInputs`, but those inputs weren't discovered
properly by the configure script. We can emulate its behavior very well though.

John Ericson 16111aa32e Fix isStatic arguments to commonDeps
Some dependencies supposed to be skipped in the cross build, along with
not using the gold linker. But in https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/6538
this was accidentally not preserved.

Also since https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/6538 we saw some new
aarch64-linux static build failures. This is a first attempt to try to
fix those failures. If this is not sufficient, there are other things we
can try next.

Nix's own flake: Dedup and memoize more
- `nixpkgsFor` does all of native, static, cross, and the different stdenvs.

- The main Nix derivation is no longer duplicated for static.

- DRY nixpkgs.lib and lib.genAttrs calls.

The issue *seems* to be the cross jobs, which are missing the `CXXFLAGS`

PR #6538 would be really nice to resurrect which will prevent the
`configureFlags` from going out of sync between the regular build and
the cross build again.
