the autoconf build system defaults to /nix/var, not /nix/var/nix. the
latter is only used in libstore, so we'll move the extra segment there.

Without this, the Meson setup won't bail out if nlohmann_json is
missing, leading to subpar DX (and maybe worse, but I'm not entirely
sure).

one headers (args/root.hh) was simply missing, and the generated headers
were not installed. not all of them *should* be installed either, only a
select few (and sadly this needs a custom target for each one, it seems)

sometimes these fail with timeouts on loaded machines. let's up the
timeouts until we can pull the tests apart to more reasonable sizes

- Enable parallel builds by default (and allow using environment
variables to override `make` variables)
- Hopefully we can get rid of this once we have Meson
- Set `GTEST_BRIEF=1`
- This only shows failed tests, instead of listing every test on its
own line.
```
$ GTEST_BRIEF=1 make check
[==========] 328 tests from 15 test suites ran. (37 ms total)
[ PASSED ] 328 tests.

Functional tests can be run with
`meson test -C build --suite installcheck`.
Notably, functional tests must be run *after* running `meson install`
(Lix's derivation runs the installcheck suite in installCheckPhase so it
does this correctly), due to some quirks between Meson and the testing
system.
As far as I can tell the functional tests are meant to be run after
installing anyway, but unfortunately I can't transparently make
`meson test --suite installcheck` depend on the install targets.
The script that runs the functional tests, meson/run-test.py, checks
that `meson install` has happened and fails fast with a (hopefully)
helpful error message if any of the functional tests are run before
installing.

This was achieved by running maintainers/buildtime_report.sh on the
build directory of a meson build, then asking "why the heck is json
eating our build times", and strategically moving the json using bits
out of widely included headers.
It turns out that putting literally any metrics whatsoever into the
build had immediate and predictable results.
Results are 1382.5s frontend time -> 1175.4s frontend time, back end
time approximately invariant.

I didn't enable this by default for clang due to making the build time
10% worse or so. Unfortunate, but tbh devs for whom 10% of build time is
not *that* bad should probably simply enable this.

hacking changelog-d to support not just github but also forgejo and
gerrit is a lot more complicated than it's worth, even moreso since
the entire thing can just as well be done with ~60 lines of python.
this new script is also much cheaper to instantiate (being python),
so having it enabled in all shells is far less of a hassle.
we've also adjusted existing release notes that referenced a gerrit
cl to auto-link to the cl in question, making the diff a bit bigger

HintFmt(string) invokes the HintFmt("%s", literal) constructor,
which is not what we want here. Add a constructor with a proper name
and call that.
Next step: rename all the other ones to HintFmt::literal(string).

Unit tests can be run with `meson test -C build --suite check`.
`--suite check` is optional, as right now that's the only test suite,
but when functional tests are added those will be in a separate suite.

parallel meson builds need too much ram. linearize them for now, and
hopefully we can remove the make build system and this hack soonish.

Committing a lock file using markFileChanged() required the input to
be writable by the caller in the local filesystem (using the path
returned by getSourcePath()). putFile() abstracts over this.

As I complained in
https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/6784#issuecomment-1421777030 (a
comment on the wrong PR, sorry again!), #6693 introduced a second
completions mechanism to fix a bug. Having two completion mechanisms
isn't so nice.
As @thufschmitt also pointed out, it was a bummer to go from `FlakeRef`
to `std::string` when collecting flake refs. Now it is `FlakeRefs`
again.
The underlying issue that sought to work around was that completion of
arguments not at the end can still benefit from the information from
latter arguments.
To fix this better, we rip out that change and simply defer all
completion processing until after all the (regular, already-complete)
arguments have been passed.
In addition, I noticed the original completion logic used some global
variables. I do not like global variables, because even if they save
lines of code, they also obfuscate the architecture of the code.
I got rid of them moved them to a new `RootArgs` class, which now has
`parseCmdline` instead of `Args`. The idea is that we have many argument
parsers from subcommands and what-not, but only one root args that owns
the other per actual parsing invocation. The state that was global is
now part of the root args instead.
This did, admittedly, add a bunch of new code. And I do feel bad about
that. So I went and added a lot of API docs to try to at least make the
current state of things clear to the next person.
--
This is needed for RFC 134 (tracking issue #7868). It was very hard to
modularize `Installable` parsing when there were two completion
arguments. I wouldn't go as far as to say it is *easy* now, but at least
it is less hard (and the completions test finally passed).

(cherry picked from commit 67eb37c1d0de28160cd25376e51d1ec1b1c8305b)
An attrPath prefix of "." indicates no need to try default attrPath prefixes. For example `nixpkgs#legacyPackages.x86_64-linux.ERROR` searches through
```
trying flake output attribute 'packages.x86_64-linux.legacyPackages.x86_64-linux.ERROR'
using cached attrset attribute ''
trying flake output attribute 'legacyPackages.x86_64-linux.legacyPackages.x86_64-linux.ERROR'
using cached attrset attribute 'legacyPackages.x86_64-linux'
trying flake output attribute 'legacyPackages.x86_64-linux.ERROR'
using cached attrset attribute 'legacyPackages.x86_64-linux'
```
And there is no way to specify that one does not want the automatic
search behavior. Now one can specify
`nixpkgs#.legacyPackages.x86_64-linux.ERROR` to only refer to the rooted
attribute path without any default injection of attribute search path or
system.
