Since the migration to meson precompiled-headers.h isn't actually used
anymore and is just confusing. Meson can't handle shared pch across
subprojects [1] and without that there's no performances benefit of PCH
at all. Also rolling our own support for that isn't trivial. See [2] for
an example of how that would look like.

This is the utility changes from #9968, which were easier to rebase
first.
I (@Ericson2314) didn't write this code; I just rebased it.

This refactor shouldn't change much except add a new `nix formatter run`
command. This creates space for the new `nix formatter build` command,
which I'll be introducing in the next commit.
I split it out before to try to separate the building logic, but now we
have the much better `DerivationBuilder` abstraction for that. With that
change, I think `LocalDerivationGoal` has outlived its usefulness.
We just inline it back into `DerivationGoal`, and do so with minimal
`#ifdef` for Windows.
Note that the order of statements in `~DerivationGoal` is different than
it was after the `~LocalDerivationGoal` split, but it is *restored* to
the way it original was before --- evidently I did the split slightly
wrong, but nobody noticed, probably because the order doesn't actually
matter.

The building logic is now free of the scheduling logic!
(The interface between them is just what is in the new header. This
makes it much easier to audit, and shrink over time.)
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`!
Progress on #7876
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
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.
All of this code doesn't actually depend on anything from
libexpr. Because Pos is so tigtly coupled with Error, it
makes sense to have in the same library.
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.
