Finish converting existing comments for internal API docs (#8146)
* Finish converting existing comments for internal API docs

99% of this was just reformatting existing comments. Only two exceptions:

- Expanded upon `BuildResult::status` compat note

- Split up file-level `symbol-table.hh` doc comments to get
  per-definition docs

Also fixed a few whitespace goofs, turning leading tabs to spaces and
removing trailing spaces.

Picking up from #8133

* Fix two things from comments

* Use triple-backtick not indent for `dumpPath`

* Convert GNU-style `\`..'` quotes to markdown style in API docs

This will render correctly.

9207f94582 Add Store::isTrustedClient()
This function returns true or false depending on whether the Nix client
is trusted or not. Mostly relevant when speaking to a remote store with
a daemon.

We include this information in `nix ping store` and `nix doctor`

74d94b2a13 Don't recommend 'nix log' unless experimental feature is enabled
This fixes the issue that `nix-build`, without experimental feature
'nix-command' enabled, recommends the experimental CLI `nix log` to view
build logs. Now it'll recommend the stable `nix-store -l` CLI instead.

Fixes https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/8118

16db8dc96f Open slave pseudoterminal before CLONE_NEWUSER
Otherwise, when running as root and user namespaces are enabled,
opening the slave fails with EPERM.

Fixes "opening pseudoterminal slave: Permission denied" followed by a
hang (https://hydra.nixos.org/build/213104244), and "error: getting
sandbox mount namespace: No such file or directory" (#8072), which
happens when the child fails very quickly and consequently reading
/proc/<child>/ns fails.

c536e00c9d Move pseudoterminal slave open to child
Hopefully this fixes "unexpected EOF" failures on macOS
(#3137, #3605, #7242, #7702).

The problem appears to be that under some circumstances, macOS
discards the output written to the slave side of the
pseudoterminal. Hence the parent never sees the "sandbox initialized"
message from the child, even though it succeeded. The conditions are:

* The child finishes very quickly. That's why this bug is likely to
  trigger in nix-env tests, since that uses a builtin builder. Adding
  a short sleep before the child exits makes the problem go away.

* The parent has closed its duplicate of the slave file
  descriptor. This shouldn't matter, since the child has a duplicate
  as well, but it does. E.g. moving the close to the bottom of
  startBuilder() makes the problem go away. However, that's not a
  solution because it would make Nix hang if the child dies before
  sending the "sandbox initialized" message.

* The system is under high load. E.g. "make installcheck -j16" makes
  the issue pretty reproducible, while it's very rare under "make
  installcheck -j1".

As a fix/workaround, we now open the pseudoterminal slave in the
child, rather than the parent. This removes the second condition
(i.e. the parent no longer needs to close the slave fd) and I haven't
been able to reproduce the "unexpected EOF" with this.

7bfed34367 Fix crash/hang with CA derivations
The curl download can outlive DrvOutputSubstitutionGoal (if some other
error occurs), so at shutdown setting the promise to an exception will
fail because 'this' is no longer valid in the callback. This can
manifest itself as a segfault, "corrupted double-linked list" or hang.

Treat empty env var paths as unset
We make sure the env var paths are actually set (ie. not "") before
sending them to the canonicalization function. If we forget to do so,
the user will end up facing a puzzled failed assertion internal error.

We issue a non-failing warning as a stop-gap measure. We could want to
revisit this to issue a detailed failing error message in the future.

bc1d9fd8b5 Check whether we can use PID namespaces
In unprivileged podman containers, /proc is not fully visible (there
are other filesystems mounted on subdirectories of /proc). Therefore
we can't mount a new /proc in the sandbox that matches the PID
namespace of the sandbox. So this commit automatically disables
sandboxing if /proc is not fully visible.

fb2f7f5dcc Fix auto-uid-allocation in Docker containers
This didn't work because sandboxing doesn't work in Docker. However,
the sandboxing check is done lazily - after clone(CLONE_NEWNS) fails,
we retry with sandboxing disabled. But at that point, we've already
done UID allocation under the assumption that user namespaces are
enabled.

So let's get rid of the "goto fallback" logic and just detect early
whether user / mount namespaces are enabled.

This commit also gets rid of a compatibility hack for some ancient
Linux kernels (<2.13).

479c011784 Get rid of the authHook parameter on processConnection
This is (morally) dead code.

As @edolstra pointed out in
https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/5226#discussion_r1073470813, this is
no longer needed.

I created this in 8d4162ff9e, so it is
fitting that I now destroy it :).

a5919f4754 Move the default profiles to the user’s home
Rather than using `/nix/var/nix/{profiles,gcroots}/per-user/`, put the user
profiles and gcroots under `$XDG_DATA_DIR/nix/{profiles,gcroots}`.

This means that the daemon no longer needs to manage these paths itself
(they are fully handled client-side). In particular, it doesn’t have to
`chown` them anymore (removing one need for root).

This does change the layout of the gc-roots created by nix-env, and is
likely to break some stuff, so I’m not sure how to properly handle that.

ce2f91d356 Split OutputsSpec and ExtendedOutputsSpec, use the former more
`DerivedPath::Built` and `DerivationGoal` were previously using a
regular set with the convention that the empty set means all outputs.
But it is easy to forget about this rule when processing those sets.
Using `OutputSpec` forces us to get it right.

609a7dc059 Include macOS sandbox files in the Nix binary
This basically reverts 6e5165b773.
It fixes errors like

  sandbox-exec: <internal init prelude>:292:47: unable to open sandbox-minimal.sb: not found

when trying to run a development Nix installed in a user's home
directory.

Also, we're trying to minimize the number of installed files
to make it possible to deploy Nix as a single statically-linked
binary.

unsafeDiscardReferences
Adds a new boolean structured attribute
`outputChecks.<output>.unsafeDiscardReferences` which disables scanning
an output for runtime references.

    __structuredAttrs = true;
    outputChecks.out.unsafeDiscardReferences = true;

This is useful when creating filesystem images containing their own embedded Nix
store: they are self-contained blobs of data with no runtime dependencies.

Setting this attribute requires the experimental feature
`discard-references` to be enabled.

8e0946e8df Remove repeat and enforce-determinism options
These only functioned if a very narrow combination of conditions held:

- The result path does not yet exist (--check did not result in
  repeated builds), AND
- The result path is not available from any configured substituters, AND
- No remote builders that can build the path are available.

If any of these do not hold, a derivation would be built 0 or 1 times
regardless of the repeat option. Thus, remove it to avoid confusion.
