Get rid of CanonPath::fromCwd
...
As discussed in the last Nix team meeting (2024-02-95), this method
doesn't belong because `CanonPath` is a virtual/ideal absolute path
format, not used in file systems beyond the native OS format for which a
"current working directory" is defined.

Pretty-print values in the REPL
...
Pretty-print values in the REPL by printing each item in a list or
attrset on a separate line. When possible, single-item lists and
attrsets are printed on one line, as long as they don't contain a nested
list, attrset, or thunk.
Before:
```
{ attrs = { a = { b = { c = { }; }; }; }; list = [ 1 ]; list' = [ 1 2 3 ]; }
```
After:
```
{
attrs = {
a = {
b = {
c = { };
};
};
};
list = [ 1 ];
list' = [
1
2
3
];
}

print-dev-env: Avoid using unbound shellHook variable
...
Some tools which consume the "nix print-dev-env" rc script (such as
"nix-direnv") are sensitive to the use of unbound variables. They use
"set -u".
The "nix print-dev-env" rc script initially unsets "shellHook", then
loads variables from the derivation, and then evaluates "shellHook".
However, most derivations don't have a "shellHook" attribute.
So users get the error "shellHook: unbound variable". This can be
demonstrated with the command:
nix print-dev-env nixpkgs#hello | bash -u
This commit changes the rc script to provide an empty fallback value
for the "shellHook" variable.
Closes : #7951 #8253

Print error messages but not traces
...
This makes output of values that include errors much cleaner.
Before:
```
nix-repl> { err = builtins.throw "uh oh!"; }
{ err = «error:
… while calling the 'throw' builtin
at «string»:1:9:
1| { err = builtins.throw "uh oh!"; }
| ^
error: uh oh!»; }
```
After:
```
nix-repl> { err = builtins.throw "uh oh!"; }
{ err = «error: uh oh!»; }
```
But if the whole expression throws an error, source locations and (if
applicable) a stack trace are printed, like you'd expect:
```
nix-repl> builtins.throw "uh oh!"
error:
… while calling the 'throw' builtin
at «string»:1:1:
1| builtins.throw "uh oh!"
| ^
error: uh oh!
```

`BaseError` includes `Interrupt`. We probably don't want the value

absPath: Explicitly check if path is empty before accessing it
...
It is entirely possible for the path to be an empty string and many
unit tests actually pass it as an empty string (e.g. both_roundrip or
turnsEmptyPathIntoCWD). In this case, without this patch, absPath will
perform a one-byte out-of-bounds access.
This was discovered while enabling the nix test suite on Alpine where
we compile all software with `-D_GLIBCXX_ASSERTIONS=1`, thus resulting
in a test failure on Alpine.
