This also reworks the Mercurial fetcher (which was still using the
old cache interface) to have two distinct cache mappings:
* A ref-to-rev mapping, which is store-independent.
* A rev-to-store-path mapping.
Code operating on store objects (including creating them) should, in
general, use `ContentAddressMethod` rather than `FileIngestionMethod`.
See also dfc876531f which included some
similar refactors.

Casting a function pointer to `void*` is undefined behavior in the C
spec, since there are platforms with different sizes for these two kinds
of pointers. A safe alternative might be `void (*callback)()`

https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/10456 fixed the addition of symlink
store paths to the sandbox, but also made it so that the hardcoded
sandbox paths (like `/etc/hosts`) were now bind-mounted without
following the possible symlinks. This made these files unreadable if
there were symlinks (because the sandbox would now contain a symlink to
an unreachable file rather than the underlying file).
In particular, this broke FOD derivations on NixOS as `/etc/hosts` is a
symlink there.
Fix that by canonicalizing all these hardcoded sandbox paths before
adding them to the sandbox.
Like always declining; local builds only, as can be inferred from the
docs. (Not worth spending too many words on this pretty obvious
behavior, I think. Also, plans to remove it? https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/1221)
This requires moving resolveSymlinks() into SourceAccessor. Also, it
requires LocalStoreAccessor::maybeLstat() to work on parents of the
store (to avoid an error like "/nix is not in the store").
Fixes#10375.
Instead of relying on setup script to set output variables when
structured attributes are enabled, iterate over the values of an
outputs associative array.

Bind-mounting symlinks is apparently not possible, which is why the
thing was failing.
Fortunately, symlinks are small, so we can fallback to copy them at no cost.

Now that we have a few things identifying content address methods by
name, we should be consistent about it.
Move up the `parseHashAlgoOpt` for tidiness too.
Discussed this change for consistency's sake as part of #8876

This was used in only one place, namely builtins.fetchurl with an
expected hash. Since this can cause similar issues as described
in #9814 and #9905 with the "locked" flag for fetchTarball and fetchTree,
let's just remove it.
Note that if an expected hash is given and the hash algorithm is
SHA-256, then we will never do a download anyway if the resulting
store path already exists. So removing the "locked" flag will only
cause potentially unnecessary HTTP requests (subject to the tarball
TTL) for non-SHA-256 hashes.
This probably snuck in in a refactor using truthiness or so. The
trustedness flag was having the optional fullness checked, rather than
the actual contained trust level.
Also adds some tests.

code blocks, if not surrounded by empty lines, have the language
tags (in these cases, always `nix`) show up in the output of :doc.
for example:
nix-repl> :doc builtins.parseFlakeRef
Synopsis: builtins.parseFlakeRef flake-ref
Parse a flake reference, and return its exploded form.
For example: nix builtins.parseFlakeRef
"github:NixOS/nixpkgs/23.05?dir=lib" evaluates to: nix { dir =
"lib"; owner = "NixOS"; ref = "23.05"; repo = "nixpkgs"; type =
"github"; }
is now instead:
nix-repl> :doc builtins.parseFlakeRef
Synopsis: builtins.parseFlakeRef flake-ref
Parse a flake reference, and return its exploded form.
For example:
| builtins.parseFlakeRef "github:NixOS/nixpkgs/23.05?dir=lib"
evaluates to:
| { dir = "lib"; owner = "NixOS"; ref = "23.05"; repo = "nixpkgs"; type = "github"; }
