bc23a44c54 Make command infra less stateful and more regular
Already, we had classes like `BuiltPathsCommand` and `StorePathsCommand`
which provided alternative `run` virtual functions providing the
implementation with more arguments. This was a very nice and easy way to
make writing command; just fill in the virtual functions and it is
fairly clear what to do.

However, exception to this pattern were `Installable{,s}Command`. These
two classes instead just had a field where the installables would be
stored, and various side-effecting `prepare` and `load` machinery too
fill them in. Command would wish out those fields.

This isn't so clear to use.

What this commit does is make those command classes like the others,
with richer `run` functions.

Not only does this restore the pattern making commands easier to write,
it has a number of other benefits:

- `prepare` and `load` are gone entirely! One command just hands just
  hands off to the next.

- `useDefaultInstallables` because `defaultInstallables`. This takes
  over `prepare` for the one case that needs it, and provides enough
  flexiblity to handle `nix repl`'s idiosyncratic migration.

- We can use `ref` instead of `std::shared_ptr`. The former must be
  initialized (so it is like Rust's `Box` rather than `Option<Box>`,
  This expresses the invariant that the installable are in fact
  initialized much better.

  This is possible because since we just have local variables not
  fields, we can stop worrying about the not-yet-initialized case.

- Fewer lines of code! (Finally I have a large refactor that makes the
  number go down not up...)

- `nix repl` is now implemented in a clearer way.

The last item deserves further mention. `nix repl` is not like the other
installable commands because instead working from once-loaded
installables, it needs to be able to load them again and again.

To properly support this, we make a new superclass
`RawInstallablesCommand`. This class has the argument parsing and
completion logic, but does *not* hand off parsed installables but
instead just the raw string arguments.

This is exactly what `nix repl` needs, and allows us to instead of
having the logic awkwardly split between `prepare`,
`useDefaultInstallables,` and `load`, have everything right next to each
other. I think this will enable future simplifications of that argument
defaulting logic, but I am saving those for a future PR --- best to keep
code motion and more complicated boolean expression rewriting separate
steps.

The "diagnostic ignored `-Woverloaded-virtual`" pragma helps because C++
doesn't like our many `run` methods. In our case, we don't mind the
shadowing it all --- it is *intentional* that the derived class only
provides a `run` method, and doesn't call any of the overridden `run`
methods.

bb411e4ae1 Fix progress bar flicker with -L
This was caused by -L calling setLogFormat() again, which caused the
creation of a new progress bar without destroying the old one. So we
had two progress bars clobbering each other.

We should change 'logger' to be a smart pointer, but I'll do that in a
future PR.

Fixes #6931.

repl: --option pure-eval true actually enables pure eval mode
To quote Eelco in #5867:

> Unfortunately we can't do
>
>     evalSettings.pureEval.setDefault(false);
>
> because then we have to do the same in main.cc (where
> pureEval is set to true), and that would allow pure-eval
> to be disabled globally from nix.conf.

Instead, a command should specify that it should be impure by
default. Then, `evalSettings.pureEval` will be set to `false;` unless
it's overridden by e.g. a CLI flag.

In that case it's IMHO OK to be (theoretically) able to override
`pure-eval` via `nix.conf` because it doesn't have an effect on commands
where `forceImpureByDefault` returns `false` (i.e. everything where pure
eval actually matters).

Closes #5867

8775be3393 store Symbols in a table as well, like positions
this slightly increases the amount of memory used for any given symbol, but this
increase is more than made up for if the symbol is referenced more than once in
the EvalState that holds it. on average every symbol should be referenced at
least twice (once to introduce a binding, once to use it), so we expect no
increase in memory on average.

symbol tables are limited to 2³² entries like position tables, and similar
arguments apply to why overflow is not likely: 2³² symbols would require as many
string instances (at 24 bytes each) and map entries (at 24 bytes or more each,
assuming that the map holds on average at most one item per bucket as the docs
say). a full symbol table would require at least 192GB of memory just for
symbols, which is well out of reach. (an ofborg eval of nixpks today creates
less than a million symbols!)

6d9a6d2cc3 Ensure that attrsets are sorted
Previously you had to remember to call value->attrs->sort() after
populating value->attrs. Now there is a BindingsBuilder helper that
wraps Bindings and ensures that sort() is called before you can use
it.

ff2af4d64e Unshare mount namespace in main()
Doing it as a side-effect of calling LocalStore::makeStoreWritable()
is very ugly.

Also, make sure that stopping the progress bar joins the update
thread, otherwise that thread should be unshared as well.

af99941279 Make experimental-features a proper type
Rather than having them plain strings scattered through the whole
codebase, create an enum containing all the known experimental features.

This means that
- Nix can now `warn` when an unkwown experimental feature is passed
  (making it much nicer to spot typos and spot deprecated features)
- It’s now easy to remove a feature altogether (once the feature isn’t
  experimental anymore or is dropped) by just removing the field for the
  enum and letting the compiler point us to all the now invalid usages
  of it.

Initialize plugins after handling initial command line flags
This is technically a breaking change, since attempting to set plugin
files after the first non-flag argument will now throw an error. This
is acceptable given the relative lack of stability in a plugin
interface and the need to tie the knot somewhere once plugins can
actually define new subcommands.
