pennae 8775be3393 store Symbols in a table as well, like positions
this slightly increases the amount of memory used for any given symbol, but this
increase is more than made up for if the symbol is referenced more than once in
the EvalState that holds it. on average every symbol should be referenced at
least twice (once to introduce a binding, once to use it), so we expect no
increase in memory on average.

symbol tables are limited to 2³² entries like position tables, and similar
arguments apply to why overflow is not likely: 2³² symbols would require as many
string instances (at 24 bytes each) and map entries (at 24 bytes or more each,
assuming that the map holds on average at most one item per bucket as the docs
say). a full symbol table would require at least 192GB of memory just for
symbols, which is well out of reach. (an ofborg eval of nixpks today creates
less than a million symbols!)

/* Strings in the evaluator carry a so-called `context' which

allow users to write things like
"--with-freetype2-library=" + freetype + "/lib"
where `freetype' is a derivation (or a source to be copied
to the store). If we just concatenated the strings without
keeping track of the referenced store paths, then if the
string is used as a derivation attribute, the derivation
will not have the correct dependencies in its inputDrvs and
inputSrcs.
The semantics of the context is as follows: when a string
with context C is used as a derivation attribute, then the
derivations in C will be added to the inputDrvs of the
derivation, and the other store paths in C will be added to
the inputSrcs of the derivations.
For canonicity, the store paths should be in sorted order. */
