jade edba570664 HOT SALE: 15% off your build times!
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.

jade 412a9c9f67 Enable clang build timing analysis
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.

eldritch horrors 279e30e7ef build: replace changelog-d with local script
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

closes lix-project/lix#176

John Ericson 3d065192c0 Overhaul completions, redo #6693 (#8131)
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).

Tom Bereknyei 4494f9097f feat: notation to refer to no attribute search prefix
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.

eldritch horrors c856b82c2e libstore: despecialcase protocol version check
protocol versions are sent as u64. on the peer we read them as uint64,
check that the upper half is 0, and throw an exception if not. we then
read an arbitrary amount of data from the peer and dump it to the user
terminal. this is a little bit ridiculous, can never happen in correct
implementation, and is severly untested. let us just drop it entirely.

raito 8044540c42 feat: unprivileged read-only open of SQLite DB
If the state SQLite database is configured to use a write-ahead-log, it
creates WAL files in the state directory.

When the state SQLite database is closed by the `nix-daemon` after
builds, those files are removed.

When an unprivileged user would like to open _in read only_ that
database, they cannot do so because they would need to create those WAL
files and they do not have the permission to do so.

For this, SQLite offers a "persistent WAL" feature [1] to leave the WAL
files around, even after closing the database.

This CL enable the persistent WAL mode.

several FIXMEs and TODOs as notes for what should be done before the
existing autoconf + make buildsystem can be removed and Meson made the
default. This commit does not modify any source files.

A Meson-enabled build is also added as a Hydra job, and to
