This fixes a few of the property tests, now that the property tests
are actually generating arbitrary data - some of that data now
requiring experimental features to function properly.
"content-address*ed*" derivation is misleading because all derivations
are *themselves* content-addressed. What may or may not be
content-addressed is not derivation itself, but the *output* of the
derivation.
The outputs are not *part* of the derivation (for then the derivation
wouldn't be complete before we built it) but rather separate entities
produced by the derivation.
"content-adddress*ed*" is not correctly because it can only describe
what the derivation *is*, and that is not what we are trying to do.
"content-address*ing*" is correct because it describes what the
derivation *does* --- it produces content-addressed data.
This uses the single-threaded C-based routines from libblake3.
This is not optimal performance-wise but should be a good starting point
for nix compatibility with BLAKE3 hashing until a more performant
implementation based on the multi-threaded BLAKE3 routines
(written in Rust) can be developed.
Fix a footgun. In my case, I had a couple of build ("output")
directories sitting around.
rm -rf build-*
Was confused for a bit why a meson.build file was missing.
Probably also helps with autocompletion.
I tried meson-build-support first, but I had to add something like
a nix- prefix, in order to make meson happy. They've reserved the
meson- prefix.
This reduces the amount of boilerplate. More importantly, it provides
a place to add compiler flags (such as -O3) without having to add it
to every subproject (and the risk of forgetting to include it).
