Qyriad 2ecd4a07e5 add an ExprPrinter class, like ValuePrinter
To be used Shortly

Qyriad 011fbeca47 add an impl of Expr::show for ExprInheritFrom that doesn't crash
ExprVar::show() assumes it has a name. dynamic inherits do not
necessarily (ever?) have a name.

eldritch horrors e7517419a6 libmain: better fix for #424, #425
not printing activities at all when no progress information is available
hides *all* progress information from e.g. flake show. this is not ideal
and needs to be fixed, but the fix *still* has problems with flake show:
in multiline mode we will overwrite all useful flake show output as soon
as the progress bar is redrawn. flake show output is also mangled in any
number of other situations (like -v being set), so we should probably be
not too worried about it and fix progress reporting properly another day

tree-wide: unify progress bar inactive and paused states
Previously, the progress bar had two subtly different states in which the bar
would not actually render, both with their own shortcomings: inactive (which
was irreversible) and paused (reversible, but swallowing logs). Furthermore,
there was no way of resetting the statistics, so a very bad solution was
implemented (243c0f18da) that would create a new
logger for each line of the repl, leaking the previous one and discarding the
value of printBuildLogs. Finally, if stderr was not attached to a TTY, the
update thread was started even though the logger was not active, violating the
invariant required by the destructor (which is not observed because the logger
is leaked).

In this commit, the two aforementioned states are unified into a single one,
which can be exited again, correctly upholds the invariant that the update
thread is only running while the progress bar is active, and does not swallow
logs. The latter change in behavior is not expected to be a problems in the
rare cases where the paused state was used before, since other loggers (like
the simple one) don't exhibit it anyway. The startProgressBar/stopProgressBar
API is removed due to being a footgun, and a new method for properly resetting
the progress is added.

eldritch horrors 010ff57ebb enable -Werror=unused-result
we do not have any of these warnings appearing at the moment, but it
seems like a good idea to enable [[nodiscard]] checking anyway. once
we start introducing more functions with must-use conditions we will
need such checking, and the rust stdlib has proven them very useful.

libexpr/flake: allow automatic rejection of configuration options from flakes
The `allow-flake-configuration` option allows the user to control whether to
accept configuration options supplied by flakes. Unfortunately, setting this
to false really meant "ask each time" (with an option to remember the choice
for each specific option encountered). Let no mean no, and introduce (and
default to) a separate value for the "ask each time" behaviour.

Delan Azabani b2944d93a6 Reject fully-qualified URLs in 'from' argument of nix registry add
We previously allowed you to map any flake URL to any other flake URL,
including shorthand flakerefs, indirect flake URLs like `flake:nixpkgs`,
direct flake URLs like `github:NixOS/nixpkgs`, or local paths.

But flake registry entries mapping from direct flake URLs often come
from swapping the 'from' and 'to' arguments by accident, and even when
created intentionally, they may not actually work correctly.

This patch rejects those URLs (and fully-qualified flake: URLs), making
it harder to swap the arguments by accident.

Fixes #181.

jade d92712673b store: guess the URL of failing fixed-output derivations
This is a shameless layering violation in favour of UX. It falls back
trivially to "unknown", so it's purely a UX feature.

Diagnostic sample:

```

eldritch horrors 3dd7d023f4 libmain: don't print empty lines
this most notably affects `nix eval`: if there is no progress bar to be
shown and no activities going on we should not print anything at all. a
progress bar with no activities would print a bunch of terminal escapes
*and a space*, which is not helpful in simple cases like nix eval -E 1.
notably this does *not* affect nix eval called on non-terminal outputs,
but it is slightly confusing nevertheless (and not difficult to avoid).
