We got UBSan working on Lix, so we of course immediately found a bug and
some definitely nonsense behaviour.
Accessing `pureEval` or `restrictEval` from a default setting value is
nonsense, since they would never be actually set by the time that value
is set so they are not going to do anything. The configuration is not
applied in an initializer (and even if it were, it's not going to be in
the right order).
After looking into *that*, we hunted down what actually was applying
these, since clearly this code did not do anything. The EvalState
constructor should have a "search path added and removed here :)" sign
on it, because that's where it is done. We added an explicit
initialization of the optional in there because it was otherwise unclear
why pureEval also has the search path to allowed paths setup code run.
We then realized that the `pureEval` documentation was *also* bogus, and
we rewrote it. In so doing, we realized that we forgot to file a bug to
make `builtins.storePath` work in pure eval mode, so we filed one of
those: lix-project/lix#402
Yaks have been thoroughly shorn.

with the prepatory work done this mostly means turning plain pointers
into unique_ptrs, with all the associated churn that necessitates. we
might want to change some of these to box_ptrs at some point as well,
but that would be a semantic change that isn't fully appropriate yet.
Change-Id: I0c238c118617420650432f4ed45569baa3e3f413
almost all places where Exprs are passed as pointers expect the pointers
to be non-null. pass them as references to encode this constraint in the
type system as well (and also communicate that Exprs must not be freed).

now that destructors are hooked up we want to give the C skeleton every
real chance to actually run them. since bison does not call destructors
on values that have been passed to semantic actions even when an action
causes an abort we will also have to delete some things manually still.

this doesn't help much yet since the state objects themselves also leak
all memory they are given, but it is a first necessary step to properly
managing parser memory. notably we have to clear $$ when returning from
the parser since even the start symbol is subject to automatic deletion
by the bison-generated parser before returning control to the call site

This causes libstore, libexpr, libfetchers, and libutil to be linked
with -Wl,--whole-archive to executables, when building statically.
libstore for the store backends, libexpr for the primops, libfetchers
for the fetcher backends I assume(?), and libutil for the nix::logger
initializer (which notably shows in pre-main constructors when HOME is
not owned by the user. cursed.).
This workaround should be removed when #359 is fixed.
Fixes#306.

It seems like someone implemented precompiled headers a long time ago
and then it never got ported to meson or maybe didn't work at all.
This is, however, blessedly easy to simply implement. I went looking for
`#define` that could affect the result of precompiling the headers, and
as far as I can tell we aren't doing any of that, so this should truly
just be free build time savings.
Previous state:
Compilation (551 times):
Parsing (frontend): 1302.1 s
Codegen & opts (backend): 956.3 s
New state:
**** Time summary:
Compilation (567 times):
Parsing (frontend): 1123.0 s
Codegen & opts (backend): 1078.1 s
I wonder if the "regression" in codegen time is just doing the PCH
operation a few times, because meson does it per-target.

This breaks downstreams linking to us on purpose to make sure that if
someone is linking to Lix they're doing it on purpose and crucially not
mixing up Nix and Lix versions in compatibility code.
We still need to fix the internal includes to follow the same schema so
we can drop the single-level include system entirely. However, this
requires a little more effort.
This adds pkg-config for libfetchers and config.h.
Migration path:
expr.hh -> lix/libexpr/expr.hh
nix/config.h -> lix/config.h
To apply this migration automatically, remove all `<nix/>` from
includes, so: `#include <nix/expr.hh>` -> `#include <expr.hh>`. Then,
the correct paths will be resolved from the tangled mess, and the
clang-tidy automated fix will work.
Then run the following for out of tree projects:
```
lix_root=$HOME/lix
(cd $lix_root/clang-tidy && nix develop -c 'meson setup build && ninja -C build')
run-clang-tidy -checks='-*,lix-fixincludes' -load=$lix_root/clang-tidy/build/liblix-clang-tidy.so -p build/ -fix src
```

This builtin was always a problem and nixpkgs uses it in exactly one
place, to give up if the Nix version is absurdly old. It has no other
use cases, and doesn't work in a multi-implementation world anyway.

sizeof(long) is 4 bytes on i686 GCC.
With ~32 GiB of memory and a page size of 4096, there are 7988420 pages.
(7988420 * 4096) is bigger than INT32_MAX folks.
This has gone unnoticed for 9 years, and only came up thanks to
94ea517db[1] adding integer overflow sensitization checks, which caused
this broken code to emit an illegal instruction, crashing Lix the
instant the buildsystem ran Lix to generate the docs files.

This reverts commit a8b3d777fb.
This undoes the revert of PR#6621, which allows nested `follows`, i.e.
{
inputs = {
foo.url = "github:bar/foo";
foo.inputs.bar.inputs.nixpkgs = "nixpkgs";
};
}
does the expected thing now. This is useful to avoid the 1000 instances
of nixpkgs problem without having each flake in the dependency tree to
expose all of its transitive dependencies for modification.
This was in fact part of Nix before and the C++ changes applied w/o
conflicts. However, it got reverted then because people didn't want to
merge lazy-trees against it which was supposed to be merged soon back in
October 2022.

Previously, errors while printing values in `nix repl` would be printed
in `«error: ...»` brackets rather than displayed normally:
```
nix-repl> legacyPackages.aarch64-darwin.pythonPackages.APScheduler
«error: Package ‘python-2.7.18.7’ in /nix/store/6s0m1qc31zw3l3kq0q4wd5cp3lqpkq0q-source/pkgs/development/interpreters/python/cpython/2.7/default.nix:335 is marked as insecure, refusing to evaluate.»
```
Now, errors will be displayed normally if they're emitted at the
top-level of an expression:
```
nix-repl> legacyPackages.aarch64-darwin.pythonPackages.APScheduler

Adds a `repl-overlays` option, which specifies files that can overlay
and modify the top-level bindings in `nix repl`. For example, with the
following contents in `~/.config/nix/repl.nix`:
info: final: prev: let
optionalAttrs = predicate: attrs:
if predicate
then attrs
else {};
in
optionalAttrs (prev ? legacyPackages && prev.legacyPackages ? ${info.currentSystem})
{
pkgs = prev.legacyPackages.${info.currentSystem};
}
We can run `nix repl` and use `pkgs` to refer to `legacyPackages.${currentSystem}`:
$ nix repl --repl-overlays ~/.config/nix/repl.nix nixpkgs

code blocks, if not surrounded by empty lines, have the language
tags (in these cases, always `nix`) show up in the output of :doc.
for example:
nix-repl> :doc builtins.parseFlakeRef
Synopsis: builtins.parseFlakeRef flake-ref
Parse a flake reference, and return its exploded form.
For example: nix builtins.parseFlakeRef
"github:NixOS/nixpkgs/23.05?dir=lib" evaluates to: nix { dir =
"lib"; owner = "NixOS"; ref = "23.05"; repo = "nixpkgs"; type =
"github"; }
is now instead:
nix-repl> :doc builtins.parseFlakeRef
Synopsis: builtins.parseFlakeRef flake-ref
Parse a flake reference, and return its exploded form.
For example:
| builtins.parseFlakeRef "github:NixOS/nixpkgs/23.05?dir=lib"
evaluates to:
| { dir = "lib"; owner = "NixOS"; ref = "23.05"; repo = "nixpkgs"; type = "github"; }
