After the previous commit it should not be necessary. Furthermore, if we
*do* sleep, we'll exacerbate a race condition (in conjunction with
getting rid of the thread cancellation) that will cause test failures.

This was filed as https://github.com/nixos/nix/issues/7584, but as far
as I can tell, the previous solution of POLLHUP works just fine on macOS
14. I've also tested on an ancient machine with macOS 10.15.7, which
also has POLLHUP work correctly.
It's possible this might regress some older versions of macOS that have
a kernel bug, but I went looking through the history on the sources and
didn't find anything that looked terribly convincingly like a bug fix
between 2020 and today. If such a broken version exists, it seems pretty
reasonable to suggest simply updating the OS.

On https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/8946, we faced a surprising
behaviour wrt. exception when using pthread_cancel. In a nutshell when
a thread is inside a catch block and it's getting pthread_cancel by
another one, then the original exception is bubbled up and crashes the
process.
We now poll on the notification pipe from the thread and exit when the
main thread closes its end. This solution does not exhibit surprising
behaviour wrt. exceptions.

similar by coincidence. Pulled a comment from that.

We want the $doc, $man outputs to be symlinks pointing to nix-manual and
nix-manual.man. Creating the directories first makes the `ln` command
produce symlink $doc/${nix-manual} instead.

This is the reason `nix-env --help` is once again broken on 2.26/2.27/master
after 4108529.

It was first introduced in 19e0ce2c03
In Nix we only register the crash handler in main instead of initNix,
because library user may want to use their own crash handler.

We now see exception beeing thrown when remote building in master
because of writing to a non-blocking file descriptor from our json logger.

So far only drainFD sets the non-blocking flag on a "readable" file descriptor,
while this is a "writeable" file descriptor.
It's not clear to me yet, why we see logs after that point, but it's
also not that bad to handle EAGAIN in read/write functions after all.
(cherry picked from commit 2790f5f9ae)
The underlying issue is that debugger code path was
calling PosTable::operator[] in each eval method.
This has become incredibly expensive since 5d9fdab3de.
While we are it it, I've reworked the code to
not use std::shared_ptr where it really isn't necessary.
As I've documented in previous commits, this is actually
more a workaround for recursive header dependencies now
and is only necessary in `error.hh` code.
Some ad-hoc benchmarking:
After this commit:
```
Benchmark 1: nix eval nixpkgs#hello --impure --ignore-try --no-eval-cache --debugger
Time (mean ± σ): 784.2 ms ± 7.1 ms [User: 561.4 ms, System: 147.7 ms]
Range (min … max): 773.5 ms … 792.6 ms 10 runs
```
On master 3604c7c51:
```
Benchmark 1: nix eval nixpkgs#hello --impure --ignore-try --no-eval-cache --debugger
Time (mean ± σ): 22.914 s ± 0.178 s [User: 18.524 s, System: 4.151 s]
Range (min … max): 22.738 s … 23.290 s 10 runs
```

All of this code doesn't actually depend on anything from
libexpr. Because Pos is so tigtly coupled with Error, it
makes sense to have in the same library.
