pennae fd5aa6ee3e allocate a GC root value for the Value cache pointer
keeping it as a simple data member means it won't be scanned by the GC, so
eventually the GC will collect a cache that is still referenced (resulting in
use-after-free of cache elements).

Fix exception handling around realisePath()

an exception occurs, leading to errors like

       … while importing ''

       at /nix/store/rrzz5b1pshvzh1437ac9nkl06br81lkv-source/flake.nix:352:13:

John Ericson 5ee937523d Add back copyClosure for plain StorePaths
This was removed in 2e199673a5 when
`copyPath` transitioned to use `RealisedPath`. But then in
e9848beca7 we added it back just for
`realisedPath`.

I think it is a good utility function --- one can easily imagine it
becoming optimized in the future, and copying paths *violating* the
closure is a very niche feature.

So if we have `copyPaths` for both sorts of paths, I think we should
have `copyClosure` for both sorts too.

pennae 7d4cc5515c defer formals duplicate check for incresed efficiency all round
if we defer the duplicate argument check for lambda formals we can use more
efficient data structures for the formals set, and we can get rid of the
duplication of formals names to boot. instead of a list of formals we've seen
and a set of names we'll keep a vector instead and run a sort+dupcheck step
before moving the parsed formals into a newly created lambda. this improves
performance on search and rebuild by ~1%, pure parsing gains more (about 4%).

this does reorder lambda arguments in the xml output, but the output is still
stable. this shouldn't be a problem since argument order is not semantically
important anyway.

Robert Hensing d038a67bd3 Fix segfault or stack overflow caused by large derivation fields
This removes a dynamic stack allocation, making the derivation
unparsing logic robust against overflows when large strings are
added to a derivation.
Overflow behavior depends on the platform and stack configuration.

For instance, x86_64-linux/glibc behaves as (somewhat) expected:

$ (ulimit -s 20000; nix-instantiate tests/lang/eval-okay-big-derivation-attr.nix)
error: stack overflow (possible infinite recursion)

$ (ulimit -s 40000; nix-instantiate tests/lang/eval-okay-big-derivation-attr.nix)
error: expression does not evaluate to a derivation (or a set or list of those)

However, on aarch64-darwin:

$ nix-instantiate big-attr.nix                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       ~
zsh: segmentation fault  nix-instantiate big-attr.nix

This indicates a slight flaw in the single stack protection page
approach that is not encountered with normal stack frames.

pennae 9ac836d1d6 don't use Symbols for strings
string expressions by and large do not need the benefits a Symbol gives us,
instead they pollute the symbol table and cause unnecessary overhead for almost
all strings. the one place we can think of that benefits from them (attrpaths
with expressions) extracts the benefit in the parser, which we'll have to touch
anyway when changing ExprString to hold strings.

this gives a sizeable improvement on of 3-5% on all benchmarks we've run.

pennae 0a7746603e remove ExprIndStr
it can be replaced with StringToken if we add another bit if information to
StringToken, namely whether this string should take part in indentation scanning
or not. since all escaping terminates indentation scanning we need to set this
bit only for the non-escaped IND_STRING rule.

this improves performance by about 1%.

pennae ad60dfde2a also cache split regexes, not just match regexes
gives about 1% improvement on system eval, a bit less on nix search.

pennae c9fc975259 optimize removeAttrs builtin
use a sorted array of symbols to be removed instead of a set. this saves a lot
of memory allocations and slightly speeds up removal.

regnat 81cd0a113b Start the pager early-enough in nix why-depends
`nix why-depends` is piping its output into a pager by default.
However the pager was only started after the first path is printed,
causing it to be excluded from the pager output.

(Actually the pager was started *inside* the recursive function that was
printing the dependency chain, so a new instance was started at each
level. It’s a little miracle that it worked at all).

Fix #5911

pennae 72f42093e7 optimize unescapeStr
mainly to avoid an allocation and a copy of a string that can be
modified in place (ever since EvalState holds on to the buffer, not the
generated parser itself).

pennae 34e3bd10e3 avoid copies of parser input data
when given a string yacc will copy the entire input to a newly allocated
location so that it can add a second terminating NUL byte. since the
parser is a very internal thing to EvalState we can ensure that having
two terminating NUL bytes is always possible without copying, and have
the parser itself merely check that the expected NULs are present.

pennae 61a9d16d5c don't strdup tokens in the lexer
every stringy token the lexer returns is turned into a Symbol and not
used further, so we don't have to strdup. using a string_view is
sufficient, but due to limitations of the current parser we have to use
a POD type that holds the same information.

gives ~2% on system build, 6% on search, 8% on parsing alone

pennae 6401e443a4 move strings in derivationStrict
the temporary will be discarded anyway, so we can move out of it and save many
small allocations and copies.

pennae ef45787aae avoid string copies in attrNames sort comparison
symbols can also be cast to string_view, which compares the same but doesn't
require a copy of both symbol names on every comparison.

pennae 1bebb1095a cache more often-used symbols for primops
there's a few symbols in primops we can create once and pick them out of
EvalState afterwards instead of creating them every time we need them. this
gives almost 1% speedup to an uncached nix search.

pennae 44c92a1667 use more string_view in utils
there's a couple places that can be easily converted from using strings to using
string_views instead. gives a slight (~1%) boost to system eval.

pennae 73fcc40fa4 use boost::lexical_cast for string2*
this avoids one copy from `s` into `str`, and possibly another copy needed to
construct `s` at the call site. lexical_cast is also more efficient in general.

pennae 5838354d34 optimize ExprConcatStrings::eval
constructing an ostringstream for non-string concats (like integer addition) is
a small constant cost that we can avoid. for string concats we can keep all the
string temporaries we get from coerceToString and concatenate them in one go,
which saves a lot of intermediate temporaries and copies in ostringstream. we
can also avoid copying the concatenated string again by directly allocating it
in GC memory and moving ownership of the concatenated string into the target
value.

saves about 2% on system eval.

Guillaume Maudoux e9a4abdb5d Make --repair-path also repair corrupt optimised links
There already existed a smoke test for the link content length,
but it appears that there exists some corruptions pernicious enough
to replace the file content with zeros, and keeping the same length.

--repair-path now goes as far as checking the content of the link,
making it true to its name and actually repairing the path for such
coruption cases.
