Make adding paths via nix-store --serve run in constant memory
It adds a new operation, cmdAddToStoreNar, that does the same thing as
the corresponding nix-daemon operation, i.e. call addToStore(). This
replaces cmdImportPaths, which has the major issue that it sends the
NAR first and the store path second, thus requiring us to store the
incoming NAR either in memory or on disk until we decide what to do
with it.

For example, this reduces the memory usage of

  $ nix copy --to 'ssh://localhost?remote-store=/tmp/nix' /nix/store/95cwv4q54dc6giaqv6q6p4r02ia2km35-blender-2.79

from 267 MiB to 12 MiB.

Probably fixes #1988.

nix-daemon: Respect --store
For example, this allows you to do run nix-daemon as a non-privileged
user:

  eelco$ NIX_STATE_DIR=~/my-nix/nix/var nix-daemon --store ~/my-nix/

The NIX_STATE_DIR is still needed because settings.nixDaemonSocketFile
is not derived from settings.storeUri (and we can't derive it from the
store's state directory because we don't want to open the store in the
parent process).

Make 'nix copy --to daemon' run in constant memory (daemon side)
Continuation of 97002b684c. This makes
the daemon use constant memory. For example, it reduces the daemon's
maximum RSS on

  $ nix copy --from ~/my-nix --to daemon /nix/store/1n7x0yv8vq6zi90hfmian84vdhd04bgp-blender-2.79a

from 264 MiB to 7 MiB.

We now use a TunnelSource to prevent the connection from ending up in
an undefined state if an exception is thrown while the NAR is being
sent.

Reduce substitution memory consumption
copyStorePath() now pipes the output of srcStore->narFromPath()
directly into dstStore->addToStore(). The sink used by the former is
converted into a source usable by the latter using
boost::coroutine2. This is based on [1].

This reduces the maximum resident size of

  $ nix build --store ~/my-nix/ /nix/store/b0zlxla7dmy1iwc3g459rjznx59797xy-binutils-2.28.1 --substituters file:///tmp/binary-cache-xz/ --no-require-sigs

from 418592 KiB to 53416 KiB. (The previous commit also reduced the
runtime from ~4.2s to ~3.4s, not sure why.) A further improvement will
be to download files into a Sink.

Make TunnelLogger thread-safe
Now that we use threads in lots of places, it's possible for
TunnelLogger::log() to be called asynchronously from other threads
than the main loop. So we need to ensure that STDERR_NEXT messages
don't clobber other messages.

Replace a few bool flags with enums
Functions like copyClosure() had 3 bool arguments, which creates a
severe risk of mixing up arguments.

Implement RemoteStore::queryMissing()
This provides a significant speedup, e.g. 64 s -> 12 s for

  nix-build --dry-run -I nixpkgs=channel:nixos-16.03 '<nixpkgs/nixos/tests/misc.nix>' -A test

on a cold local and CloudFront cache.

The alternative is to use lots of concurrent daemon connections but
that seems wasteful.

nix-daemon: Disable path info cache
This is useless because the client also caches path info, and can
cause problems for long-running clients like hydra-queue-runner
(i.e. it may return cached info about paths that have been

Dan Peebles e7cb2847ab Explicitly model all settings and fail on unrecognized ones
Previously, the Settings class allowed other code to query for string
properties, which led to a proliferation of code all over the place making
up new options without any sort of central registry of valid options. This
commit pulls all those options back into the central Settings class and
removes the public get() methods, to discourage future abuses like that.

Furthermore, because we know the full set of options ahead of time, we
now fail loudly if someone enters an unrecognized option, thus preventing
subtle typos. With some template fun, we could probably also dump the full
set of options (with documentation, defaults, etc.) to the command line,
but I'm not doing that yet here.

Tuomas Tynkkynen 649a81bcd6 nix-daemon: Don't splice with len=SIZE_MAX
Currently, 'nix-daemon --stdio' is always failing for me, due to the
splice call always failing with (on a 32-bit host):

splice(0, NULL, 3, NULL, 4294967295, SPLICE_F_MOVE) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument)

With a bit of ftracing (and luck) the problem seems to be that splice()
always fails with EINVAL if the len cast as ssize_t is negative:
http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/fs/read_write.c?v=4.4#L384

So use SSIZE_MAX instead of SIZE_MAX.
