* docs: fix python nix-shell example
This Python code snippet depended on Python 2 which has been marked as insecure in 24.05.
I modernized the example so new users will not be surprised upon copying and pasting the snippet for exploration.

Before, `-lnixutil` was just stuck in `nix-store.pc`, but that doesn't
seem so nice.
This prepares us to distribute `libnixutil` in a separate package if we
want, but it should be a good change either way. I suspect it wasn't
done before because libutil was an extra unstable interface, but I don't
think we need worry about that. *All* the C++ is less stable than the C
(or that's the goal at least).
For what it's worth, Lix also created this pkg-config file *en passant*
during their rename:
c97e17144e (diff-3c4f60cc44a0e35444c7f45331cfa50f76637118)
... so that we may perhaps later extend the interface.
Note that Nixpkgs' lib.warn already requires a string coercible
argument, so this is reasonable. Also note that string coercible
values aren't all strings, but in practice, for warn, they are.
Progress on #10832
This doesn't switch to auto-deriving the fields, but by defining `<=>`
we allow deriving `<=>` in downstream types where `Hash` is used.
Fixes assertion failure if outputsToInstall is empty by defaulting to the "out"
output. That is, behavior between the following commands should be consistent:
$ nix build --no-link --json .#nothing-to-install-no-out
error: derivation '/nix/store/eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee-nothing-to-install-no-out.drv' does not have wanted outputs 'out'
$ nix build --no-link --file default.nix --json nothing-to-install-no-out
error: derivation '/nix/store/eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee-nothing-to-install-no-out.drv' does not have wanted outputs 'out'
Real-world example of this issue:
$ nix build --json .#.legacyPackages.aarch64-linux.texlive.pkgs.iwona
error: derivation '/nix/store/dj0h6b0pnlnan5nidnhqa0bmzq4rv6sx-iwona-0.995b.drv' does not have wanted outputs 'out'
$ git rev-parse HEAD

$ nix build --json --file . texlive.pkgs.iwona

1. Fix build by making the legacy SSH Storey's secret `logFD` setting
not a setting on Windows. (It doesn't make sense to specify `void *`
handles by integer cross-proccess, I don't think.)
2. Move some files that don't need to be Unix-only anymore back to their
original locations.
