On macOS, `mkdir("x/')` behaves differently than `mkdir("x")` if `x` is
a dangling symlink (the formed succeed while the latter fails). So make
sure we always strip the trailing slash.

after doing rm /tmp/ecstatic-euler-mAFGV7 this will result in:
nix-repl> :lf .
error: cannot determine current working directory: No such file or directory
Before it would make the repl crash

this should make it more obvious how things are related to each other, and also
hopefully expose the historical context without having to say on every
corner that these details are accounting for legacy decisions.
The daemon process is now moved into a new sub-cgroup called nix-daemon when the
daemon starts. This is necessary to abide by the no-processes-in-inner-nodes
rule, because the service cgroup becomes an inner node when the child cgroups
for the build are created (see LocalDerivationGoal::startBuilder()).
See #9675
This broke in #11005. Any number of PathSubstitutionGoals would
be woken up by a single build slot becoming available. If there
are a lot of substitution goals active, this could lead to us
running out of file descriptors (especially on macOS where the
default limit is 256).
libgit2 didn't write thin ones, hence the patch.
This should improve performance on systems with weak I/O in ~/.cache,
especially in terms of operations per second, or where system calls
are slower. (macOS, VMs?)
Meson-ify a few things, scripts, completions, etc. Should make our Meson
build complete except for docs.

We're not replacing `Path` in exposed definitions in many cases, but
just adding alternatives. This will allow us to "top down" change `Path`
to `std::fileysystem::path`, and then we can remove the `Path`-using
utilities which will become unused.
Also add some test files which we forgot to include in the libutil unit
tests `meson.build`.

This reverts commit 43e82c9446, reversing
changes made to d79b9bdec0.
Since /proc/homeless-shelter returns a different errno than /homeless-shelter (ENOENT vs EACCES), we need to revert this change.
Software depends on this error code i.e. cargo and therefore breaks.
