I do not believe there is any problem with computing
`hashDerivationModulo` the normal way with impure derivations.
Conversely, the way this used to work is very suspicious because two
almost-equal derivations that only differ in depending on different
impure derivations could have the same drv hash modulo. That is very
suspicious because there is no reason to think those two different
impure derivations will end up producing the same content-addressed
data!

E.g. in a derivation attribute `foo = ./bar`, if ./bar is a symlink,
we should copy the symlink to the store, not its target. This restores
the behaviour of Nix <= 2.19.

This seems to be the way to do it now, even though I can't run them
without setting at least one env var.
I'll only fix shellcheck for now. Don't shoot the messenger.
It isn't quite clear to me why the previous commit masked this problem,
but I'm glad shellcheck has an effect or more effect now.
Note that this is just a script that is meant to run outside a
derivation (but also can be called by a derivation builder).
`touch $out` does not belong in it.
`touch $out` worked accidentally in the derivation-based check,
and also in the dev shell, but if pre-commit is invoked without
the dev shell it would fail.
"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 is a big step documenting the store layer on its own, separately from the evaluator (and `builtins.derivation`).

Curl creates sockets without setting FD_CLOEXEC/SOCK_CLOEXEC, this can
cause connections to remain open forever when using commands like `nix
shell`
This change sets the FD_CLOEXEC flag using a CURLOPT_SOCKOPTFUNCTION
callback.

If we previously fetched by revision, the output of "git ls-remote"
won't start with the expected line like
ref: refs/heads/master HEAD
but will be something like
5c4410e3b9891c05ab40d723de78c6f0be45ad30 refs/heads/5c4410e3b9891c05ab40d723de78c6f0be45ad30
This then causes Nix to treat that revision as a refname, which then
leads to warnings like
warning: could not update cached head '5c4410e3b9891c05ab40d723de78c6f0be45ad30' for 'file:///tmp/repo'
(cherry picked from commit c8b22643ba)
This causes Git to create a local ref named refs/head/<rev>, e.g.
$ git -C ~/.cache/nix/gitv3/11irpim06vj4h6c0w8yls6kx4hvl0qd0gr1fvk47n76g6wf1s1vk ls-remote --symref .
5c4410e3b9891c05ab40d723de78c6f0be45ad30 refs/heads/5c4410e3b9891c05ab40d723de78c6f0be45ad30

which confuses readHead(), leading to errors like
fatal: Refusing to point HEAD outside of refs/
warning: could not update cached head 'd275d93aa0bb8a004939b2f1e87f559f989453be' for 'file:///tmp/repo'
(cherry picked from commit ee9fa0d360)
Git interprets them as part of the file name, so passing parameters
like 'rev' breaks. Only relevant for testing (when _NIX_FORCE_HTTP is
set) and local bare repos.
