at least clang-tidy is not convinced that this initialized.
If this is not the case, the impact should be small and hopefully also
more robust if changed.
(cherry picked from commit 7e540059a3)
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.

On my system (Ubuntu 24.04 with nix installed using
https://zero-to-nix.com/), I noticed that my PATH
contained multiple times the following entries:
/home/thomas/.nix-profile/bin
/nix/var/nix/profiles/default/bin
Fix it by inserting a missing `export`, to make
sure `nix-daemon.sh` is really only executed once.

See comments on the script; this is supposed to avoid breaking muscle
memory without complicating the build system (which proved harder than I
thought too) or not doing the header hygiene change at all.
link-headers: use pathlib consistenly and fix type errors
(cherry picked from commit c6a176be62)
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.

- Since it's now private, give it a rename. Note that I want to switch the
word order on the public ones too.
- Since it is only needed by two files, just include there rather than
the nasty blanket-forced thing.

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.
(cherry picked from commit c82ef825d4)
Here we're switching to combinators instead of dereference operator.
It turns out the dereference operator was being executed upon test
setup, meaning that we were only using a only single value for each of
the executions of the property tests! Really not good.
And on Windows, we instead get:
operator* is not allowed in this context
ff6af6fc68/src/gen/detail/GenerationHandler.cpp (L16C31-L16C71)
Now a few of the property tests fail, because we're generating cases
which haven't been exercised before.

Without this :u, :sh and :i repl commands fail with:

Remove the default ctor argument as it evidently makes catching
refactoring bugs much harder. `NixRepl` implementation lives completely
in `repl.cc`, so we can be as explicit as necessary.

1. Fix confusing wording that might imply unnecessary double-hashing.
2. Add references to specifics of base-32 encoding.
3. Fix incorrect description that sha256 hash of `fingerprint` is
truncated. "Truncated" is actual wording used in Nix theses, but it has
unusual meaning, that is better conveyed by word "compressed", which is
used by the reference C++ implementation.
4. Clarify details of base16 encoding.

Doing this makes catching non-obvious bugs easier. GHA CI workload is
already a concern and there isn't much benefit in running the tests with
and without sanitizers at the same time, so UBSAN is enabled for default
checks.
This change doesn't affect production builds in any way, but is rather a
step in the direction of improving automated testing during development.
Relates to #10969.

This is supposed to firstly improve the docs as they are, and secondly
hint at how the core conceptual information ought to be moved to the
store derivation section of the manual.

(cherry picked from commit 637aa0944d)
- 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.
