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.

Unless `--precise` is passed, make `nix why-depends` only show the
dependencies between the store paths, without introspecting them to
find the actual references.

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%.

This is needed to get the path of a derivation that might not exist

InstallableStorePath::toDerivedPaths() cannot be used for this because
it calls readDerivation(), so it fails if the store doesn't have the
derivation.

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).

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
