We are piping curl downloads into `unpackTarfileToSink()`, but the
latter is typically slower than the former if you're on a fast
connection. So the download could appear unnecessarily slow. (There is
even a risk that if the Git import is *really* slow for whatever
reason, the TCP connection could time out.)
So let's make the download buffer bigger by default - 64 MiB is big
enough for the Nixpkgs tarball. Perhaps in the future, we could have
an unlimited buffer that spills data to disk beyond a certain
threshold, but that's probably overkill.
Currently, the worker protocol has a version number that we increment
whenever we change something in the protocol. However, this can cause
a collision between Nix PRs / forks that make protocol changes
(e.g. PR #9857 increments the version, which could collide with
another PR). So instead, the client and daemon now exchange a set of
protocol features (such as `auth-forwarding`). They will use the
intersection of the sets of features, i.e. the features they both
support.
Note that protocol features are completely distinct from
`ExperimentalFeature`s.
This is in accordance with ARM's naming convention.
"Low" is confusing, because it could refer to either the cold end
of the stack as an abstract data type, or a low address.
These are different places, because the stack grows down through
the address space.
... as well as match buildReadlineNoMarkdown.
Unfortunately it doesn't support long inputs or multiline inputs
for now.
This needs to make better use of the interacter interface.
This avoids the double warning

In _very_ rare cases (I had about 7 cases out of 32200 files!),
the order of how inherit-from bindings are printed when using
`nix-instantiate --parse` gets messed up.
The cause of this seems to be because the std::map the bindings are
placed in is keyed on a _pointer_, which then uses an
[implementation-defined strict total order](https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/operator_comparison#Pointer_total_order).
The fix here is to key the bindings on their displacement instead,
which maintains the same order as they appear in the file.
Unfortunately I wasn't able to make a reproducible test for this in the
source, there's something about the local environment that makes it
unreproducible for me.
However I was able to make a reproducible test in a Nix build on a Nix
version from a very recent master:

Following what is outlined in #10766 refactor the uds-remote-store such
that the member variables (state) don't live in the store itself but in
the config object.
Additionally, the config object includes a new necessary constructor
that takes a scheme & authority.
Tests are commented out because of linking errors with the current config system.
When there is a new config system we can reenable them.

This generally gives a better experience with bindings generators,
possibly other tooling.
A possible risk is that some generators may not represent unknown
codes correctly.
Rust bindgen by default generates suitable code:
* a type alias nix_err = c_int
* individual constants for the known enum values
It does _not_ generate a closed type that can only hold the values
that were known at code generation time.
If this proves to be a problem, we could instead split the type:
`typedef int nix_err;` for return values
`enum nix_known_err` for code generation.
This would complicate the interface, so let's not do it unless it
is shown to be needed.
This was accidentally introduced
in f71b4da0b3. We didn't notice this
because the version got interpreted by the daemon as the obsolete "CPU
affinity will follow" field, and being non-zero, it would then read
another integer for the ignored CPU affinity.
The default value for the setting was evaluated by
calling a method on the object _being currently constructed_,
so we were using it before all fields were initialized.
This has been fixed by making the called method static,
and not using the previously used fields at all.
But functionality hasn't changed!
The fields were usually always zero (by chance?) anyway,
meaning the conditional path was always taken.
Thus the current logic has been kept, the code simplified,
and UB removed.
This was found with the helper of UBSan.
Splitting it out immediately answers questions like [this],
without increasing the number of compilation units.
I did consider using boost::hash_combine instead, but it doesn't seem
to be quite as capable, accepting only two arguments.

Progress towards #10766
I thought that #10768 achieved, but when I went to use this stuff (in
Hydra), turns out it did not. (Those `using FooConfig;` lines were not
working --- they are so finicky!) This PR gets the job done, and adds
some trivial unit tests to make sure I did what I intended.
I had to add add a header to expose `SSHStoreConfig`, after which the
preexisting `ssh-store-config.*` were very confusingly named files, so I
renamed them to `common-ssh-store-config.hh` to match the type defined
therein.
They are not actually part of the store layer, but instead part of the
Nix executable infra (libraries don't need plugins, executables do).
This is part of a larger project of moving all of our legacy settings
infra to libmain, and having the underlying libraries just have plain
configuration structs detached from any settings infra / UI layer.
Progress on #5638
This makes it possible to certain discern failures from empty
snippets, which I think is an ok review comment.
Maybe it should do so for swapped column indexes too, but I'm not
sure.
I don't think it matters in the grand scheme. We don't even have
a real use case for `nullopt` now anyway.
Since we don't have a use case, I'm not applying this logic to
higher level functions yet.
Unfortunately these don't render correctly, because they go into the
markdown renderer, instead of the terminal.
```
nix-repl> :doc lib.version
Attribute '[35;1mversion[0m'
… defined at [35;1m/home/user/h/nixpkgs/lib/default.nix:73:40[0m
```
We could switch that to go direct to the terminal, but then we should
do the same for the primops, to get a consistent look.
Reverting for now.
This reverts commit 3413e0338cbee1c7734d5cb614b5325e51815cde.
fetchurl can be given a name and url aside from just the url.
Giving a name can be useful if the url has invalid characters such as
tilde for the store.
... at call sites that are may be in the hot path.
I do not know how clever the compiler gets at these sites.
My primary concern is to not regress performance and I am confident
that this achieves it the easy way.
When the separator is empty, no difference is observable.
Note that concatStringsSep has centralized definitions. This adds the
required definitions. Alternatively, `strings-inline.hh` could be
included at call sites.
Considering that `value` was probably parsed with tokenizeString
prior, it's unlikely to contain empty strings, and we have no
reason to remove them either.
