* docker: publish images to ghcr.io
docker.com announced their intention to remove the free plan used by
OSS. The nixos/nix image is essential to various CI runs to build with
nix. To provide a continuity plan, this commit pushes the image to
ghcr.io as well.

It is dead code. It was added in
8e0946e8df as part of the repeated /
enforce-determinism feature, but that was removed in
8fdd156a65.
It is not good because it skips many fields. For testing purposes we
will soon want to add a new one that doesn't skip fields, but we want to
make sure making == sensitive to those fields won't change how Nix
works. Proving in this commit that the old version is dead code achieves
that.
this also adds a hint to contributors about making far-reaching changes,
complementing the recent update to the maintainers' handbook on how to
deal with those.
GitHub now displays a banner and has a dedicated page[1] for good first
issues, but that uses a different label name as we had in place.
I renamed the label on GitHub, this is updating the link.

linking to the discourse category will by default show a view sorted by
most recent post, which makes it hard to find particular meeting notes.
this also adds a procedural detail about the notes, to make that more
explicit and less dependent on being present in the meetings.
hashBase is ambiguous, since it's not about the digital bases, but about
the format of hashes. Base16, Base32 and Base64 are all character maps
for binary encoding.
Rename the enum Base to HashFormat.
Rename variables of type HashFormat from [hash]Base to hashFormat,
including CmdHashBase::hashFormat and CmdToBase::hashFormat.
This will allow us to factor out logic, which is currently scattered
inline, into several reusable instances
The tests are also updated to support versioning. Currently all Worker
and Serve protocol tests are using the minimum version, since no
version-specific serialisers have been created yet. But in subsequent
commits when that changes, we will test individual versions to ensure
complete coverage.
- Remove some stray saved error messages that didn't correspond to any
test, because they were renamed in
d11faa01b5.
- Need `--eval` in test failure test in order to get in "read-only" mode
where we don't try to write to the store. (The other tests already do
this.)
- Need `--strict` so top-level attribute sets are still forced, like
they are without `--eval`.
