This allows writing lock files with dirty inputs, so long as they have
a NAR hash. (Currently they always have a NAR hash, but with lazy
trees that may not always be the case.)
Generally dirty locks are bad for reproducibility (we can detect if
the dirty input has changed, but we have no way to fetch it except
substitution). Hence we don't allow them by default.
Fixes#11181.
The primitive `readFileType p` has a list of acceptable types, and so does `readDir path`
This edit makes the formatting of the list consistent between themselves, and other parts of the documentation.
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 gets rid of unnecessary copies in range-based-for loops and
local variables, when they are used solely as `const &`.
Also added a fixme comment about a suspicious move out of const,
which might not be intended.
Looks like some cruft has been left over from previous refactorings.
This removes dead variables, which should not have side effects in their
constructors. In cases where the variable initialization has a purpose
[[maybe_unused]] is inserted to silence compiler warnings.
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).

on a lock file with an input that doesn't have a narHash. This can
happen when using a lock file created by the lazy-trees branch.
Cherry-picked from lazy-trees.
When diagnosing infinite recursion references to nullptr `Env` can be formed.
This happens only with `ExprBlackHole` is evaluated, which always leads to
`InfiniteRecursionError`.
UBSAN log for one such case:

In these trivial cases the final vector size (or lower bound on the size) is known,
so we can avoid some vector reallocations. This is not very important, but is just
good practice and general hygiene.
This is good practice to avoid pessimisations.
Left comments for the reasoning why ctors should be noexcept.
There are some tricky cases where we intentionally want throwing move ctors/assignments.
But those cases should really be reviewed, since some of those can be replaced
with more idiomatic copy/move-and-swap.
