Try to stay away from stack overflows.
These small vectors use stack space. Most instances will not need
to allocate because in general most things are small, and large
things are worth heap allocating.
16 * 3 * word = 384 bytes is still quite a bit, but these functions
tend not to be part of deep recursions.
This makes stack usage significantly more compact, allowing larger
amounts of data to be processed on the same stack.
PrimOp functions with more than 8 positional (curried) arguments
should use an attrset instead.
VLAs are a dangerous feature, and their usage triggers an undefined
behavior since theire size can be zero in some cases.
So replace them with `boost::small_vector`s which fit the same goal but
are safer.
It's also incidentally consistently 1% faster on the benchmarks.
SHELL was inherited from the system environment. This resulted in a new
shell being started, but with SHELL still referring to the system shell
and not the one used by nix-develop.
Applications like make, use SHELL to run commands, which meant that
top-level commands are run inside the nix-develop-shell, but
sub-commands are ran inside the system shell.
This setenv forces SHELL to always be set to the shell used by
nix-develop.
nix-repl> bools = [ false true ]
nix-repl> combinations = builtins.concatMap (a: builtins.concatMap (b: map (c: { inherit a b c; }) bools) bools) bools
nix-repl> builtins.all ({ a, b, c }: (a -> b -> c) == (a -> (b -> c))) combinations
true
nix-repl> builtins.all ({ a, b, c }: (a -> b -> c) == ((a -> b) -> c)) combinations
false
This is the core functionality but just unit-tested and not yet made
part of the store layer. This is because there is some tech debt around
(a) repeated boilerplate hashing objects (b) better integration of the
new `SourceAccessor` type that needs to be cleaned up first.

The basic idea here is to separate a few intertwined notions:
1. Not all "run bash tests" are "install tests"
2. Not all "run bash tests" use `tests/functional/init.sh`, or any
pre-test initialization at all.
This will used in the next commit when we have a test that check unit
test golden master data.
Also, move our custom `PS4` from the test to the test runner, as it is
part of how we want to display the tests, not the test themselves.
