... by moving our stuff out of the way from upstream's
`nixComponents` and `nixDependencies` attrsets.
(I prefer not to use overlays, but let's make it work this way
first)
(cherry picked from commit b257ea94e3)
We had fields set to the same values before in our test data. This is
not a problem per-se, but does mean we wouldn't catch certain mixups.
Now, the fields are set to distinct values (where possible), which makes
the test more robust.

Now, both the unit and functional tests relating to derivation options
are tested both ways -- with input addressing and content-addressing
derivations.
(cherry picked from commit 307dbe9914)
This requires that we refer to the `sourceInfo` instead of the
`result`. However, `sourceInfo` does not create a chain of basedir
resolution, so we add that back with `flakeDir`.
(cherry picked from commit 2109a5a206)
We now mount lazy accessors on top of /nix/store without materializing
them, and only materialize them to the real store if needed (e.g. in
the `derivation` primop).
For example, instead of doing
#include "nix/store-config.hh"
#include "nix/derived-path.hh"
Now do
#include "nix/store/config.hh"
#include "nix/store/derived-path.hh"
This was originally planned in the issue, and also recent requested by
Eelco.
Most of the change is purely mechanical. There is just one small
additional issue. See how, in the example above, we took this
opportunity to also turn `<comp>-config.hh` into `<comp>/config.hh`.
Well, there was already a `nix/util/config.{cc,hh}`. Even though there
is not a public configuration header for libutil (which also would be
called `nix/util/config.{cc,hh}`) that's still confusing, To avoid any
such confusion, we renamed that to `nix/util/configuration.{cc,hh}`.
Finally, note that the libflake headers already did this, so we didn't
need to do anything to them. We wouldn't want to mistakenly get
`nix/flake/flake/flake.hh`!

This way, we don't need the PathDisplaySourceAccessor source accessor
hack, since error messages are produced directly by the original
source accessor.
In fact, we don't even need to copy the inputs to the store at all, so
this gets us very close to lazy trees. We just need to know the store
path so that requires hashing the entire input, which isn't lazy. But
the next step will be to use a virtual store path that gets rewritten
to the actual store path only when needed.
There are two big changes:
1. Public and private config is now separated. Configuration variables
that are only used internally do not go in a header which is
installed.
(Additionally, libutil has a unix-specific private config header,
which should only be used in unix-specific code. This keeps things a
bit more organized, in a purely private implementation-internal way.)
2. Secondly, there is no more `-include`. There are very few config
items that need to be publically exposed, so now it is feasible to
just make the headers that need them just including the (public)
configuration header.
And there are also a few more small cleanups on top of those:
- The configuration files have better names.
- The few CPP variables that remain exposed in the public headers are
now also renamed to always start with `NIX_`. This ensures they should
not conflict with variables defined elsewhere.
- We now always use `#if` and not `#ifdef`/`#ifndef` for our
configuration variables, which helps avoid bugs by requiring that
variables must be defined in all cases.

The short answer for why we need to do this is so we can consistently do
`#include "nix/..."`. Without this change, there are ways to still make
that work, but they are hacky, and they have downsides such as making it
harder to make sure headers from the wrong Nix library (e..g.
`libnixexpr` headers in `libnixutil`) aren't being used.
The C API alraedy used `nix_api_*`, so its headers are *not* put in
subdirectories accordingly.
Progress on #7876
We resisted doing this for a while because it would be annoying to not
have the header source file pairs close by / easy to change file
path/name from one to the other. But I am ameliorating that with
symlinks in the next commit.
(cherry picked from commit f3e1c47f47)
- Some headers were completely redundant and have been removed.
- Other headers have been turned private.
- Unnecessary meson.build code has been removed.
- libutil-tests now has a private config header, where previously
it had none. This removes the need to expose a package version
macro publicly.
(cherry picked from commit b86a76044e)
Otherwise without the change the test fails on nix-2.26 as:
error: derivation contains an illegal reference specifier 'dev'
Note: the error message does not match intended change.
