453c3a603f nix flake update: Recreate the lock file
This is probably what most people expect it to do. Fixes #3781.

There is a new command 'nix flake lock' that has the old behaviour of
'nix flake update', i.e. it just adds missing lock file entries unless
overriden using --update-input.

0c62b4ad0f Represent 'follows' inputs explicitly in the lock file
This fixes an issue where lockfile generation was not idempotent:
after updating a lockfile, a "follows" node would end up pointing to a
new copy of the node, rather than to the original node.

810b2c6a48 nix flake init: Add a '--template' flag
The initial contents of the flake is specified by the
'templates.<name>' or 'defaultTemplate' output of another flake. E.g.

  outputs = { self }: {

    templates = {

      nixos-container = {
        path = ./nixos-container;
        description = "An example of a NixOS container";
      };

    };

  };

allows

  $ nix flake init -t templates#nixos-container

Also add a command 'nix flake new', which is identical to 'nix flake
init' except that it initializes a specified directory rather than the
current directory.

5f64655ff4 Move registry-related commands from 'nix flake' to 'nix registry'
This makes 'nix flake' less cluttered and more consistent (it's only
subcommands that operator on a flake). Also, the registry is not
inherently flake-related (e.g. fetchTree could also use it to remap
inputs).

Remove flake 'edition' field
Future editions of flakes or the Nix language can be supported by
renaming flake.nix (e.g. flake-v2.nix). This avoids a bootstrap
problem where we don't know which grammar to use to parse
flake*.nix. It also allows a project to support multiple flake
editions, in theory.

Substitute flake inputs
This improves reproducibility and may be faster than fetching from the
original source (especially for git/hg inputs, but probably also for
github inputs - our binary cache is probably faster than GitHub's
dynamically generated tarballs).

Unfortunately this doesn't work for the top-level flake since even if
we know the NAR hash of the tree, we don't know the other tree
attributes such as revCount and lastModified.

Fixes #3253.

b9fb372075 Add --update-input flag to update a specific flake input
Typical usage:

  $ nix flake update ~/Misc/eelco-configurations/hagbard --update-input nixpkgs

to update the 'nixpkgs' input of a flake while leaving every other
input unchanged.

The argument is an input path, so you can do e.g. '--update-input
dwarffs/nixpkgs' to update an input of an input.

Fixes #2928.

26f895a26d Clean up the lock file handling flags
Added a flag --no-update-lock-file to barf if the lock file needs any
changes. This is useful for CI systems if you're building a
checkout. Fixes #2947.

Renamed --no-save-lock-file to --no-write-lock-file. It is now a fatal
error if the lock file needs changes but --no-write-lock-file is not
given.

    --override-input 'dwarffs/nixpkgs' ../my-nixpkgs

overrides the 'nixpkgs' input of the 'dwarffs' input of the top-level
flake.

cc22cf662b Respect lock files of inputs + fine-grained lock file control
When computing a lock file, we now respect the lock files of flake
inputs. This is important for usability / reproducibility. For
example, the 'nixops' flake depends on the 'nixops-aws' and
'nixops-hetzner' repositories. So when the 'nixops' flake is used in
another flake, we want the versions of 'nixops-aws' and
'nixops-hetzner' locked by the the 'nixops' flake because those
presumably have been tested.

This can lead to a proliferation of versions of flakes like 'nixpkgs'
(since every flake's lock file could depend on a different version of
'nixpkgs'). This is not a major issue when using Nixpkgs overlays or
NixOS modules, since then the top-level flake composes those
overlays/modules into *its* version of Nixpkgs and all other versions
are ignored. Lock file computation has been made a bit more lazy so it
won't try to fetch all those versions of 'nixpkgs'.

However, in case it's necessary to minimize flake versions, there now
are two input attributes that allow this. First, you can copy an input
from another flake, as follows:

  inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "dwarffs/nixpkgs";

This states that the calling flake's 'nixpkgs' input shall be the same
as the 'nixpkgs' input of the 'dwarffs' input.

Second, you can override inputs of inputs:

  inputs.nixpkgs.url = github:edolstra/nixpkgs/<hash>;
  inputs.nixops.inputs.nixpkgs.url = github:edolstra/nixpkgs/<hash>;

or equivalently, using 'follows':

  inputs.nixpkgs.url = github:edolstra/nixpkgs/<hash>;
  inputs.nixops.inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs";

This states that the 'nixpkgs' input of the 'nixops' input shall be
the same as the calling flake's 'nixpkgs' input.

Finally, at '-v' Nix now prints the changes to the lock file, e.g.

  $ nix flake update ~/Misc/eelco-configurations/hagbard
  inputs of flake 'git+file:///home/eelco/Misc/eelco-configurations?subdir=hagbard' changed:
    updated 'nixpkgs': 'github:edolstra/nixpkgs/7845bf5f4b3013df1cf036e9c9c3a55a30331db9' -> 'github:edolstra/nixpkgs/03f3def66a104a221aac8b751eeb7075374848fd'
    removed 'nixops'
    removed 'nixops/nixops-aws'
    removed 'nixops/nixops-hetzner'
    removed 'nixops/nixpkgs'

7d38060a0d Support non-x86_64-linux system types in flakes
A command like

  $ nix run nixpkgs#hello

will now build the attribute 'packages.${system}.hello' rather than
'packages.hello'. Note that this does mean that the flake needs to
export an attribute for every system type it supports, and you can't
build on unsupported systems. So 'packages' typically looks like this:

  packages = nixpkgs.lib.genAttrs ["x86_64-linux" "i686-linux"] (system: {
    hello = ...;
  });

The 'checks', 'defaultPackage', 'devShell', 'apps' and 'defaultApp'
outputs similarly are now attrsets that map system types to
derivations/apps. 'nix flake check' checks that the derivations for
all platforms evaluate correctly, but only builds the derivations in
'checks.${system}'.

Fixes #2861. (That issue also talks about access to ~/.config/nixpkgs
and --arg, but I think it's reasonable to say that flakes shouldn't
support those.)

The alternative to attribute selection is to pass the system type as
an argument to the flake's 'outputs' function, e.g. 'outputs = { self,
nixpkgs, system }: ...'. However, that approach would be at odds with
hermetic evaluation and make it impossible to enumerate the packages
provided by a flake.

30ccf4e52d Turn flake inputs into an attrset
Instead of a list, inputs are now an attrset like

  inputs = {
    nixpkgs.uri = github:NixOS/nixpkgs;
  };

If 'uri' is omitted, than the flake is a lookup in the flake registry, e.g.

  inputs = {
    nixpkgs = {};
  };

but in that case, you can also just omit the input altogether and
specify it as an argument to the 'outputs' function, as in

  outputs = { self, nixpkgs }: ...

This also gets rid of 'nonFlakeInputs', which are now just a special
kind of input that have a 'flake = false' attribute, e.g.

  inputs = {
    someRepo = {
      uri = github:example/repo;
      flake = false;
    };
  };
