d62a9390fc Get rid of std::shared_ptr<std::string> and ref<std::string>
These were needed back in the pre-C++11 era because we didn't have
move semantics. But now we do.

We explicitly hack around to remove them, so might as well check that
the hack is useful.

(Introduced because I feared that the changes of
https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/5906#discussion_r784810238 would bring
back some runtime references)

81cd0a113b Start the pager early-enough in nix why-depends
`nix why-depends` is piping its output into a pager by default.
However the pager was only started after the first path is printed,
causing it to be excluded from the pager output.

(Actually the pager was started *inside* the recursive function that was
printing the dependency chain, so a new instance was started at each
level. It’s a little miracle that it worked at all).

72f42093e7 optimize unescapeStr
mainly to avoid an allocation and a copy of a string that can be
modified in place (ever since EvalState holds on to the buffer, not the
generated parser itself).

34e3bd10e3 avoid copies of parser input data
when given a string yacc will copy the entire input to a newly allocated
location so that it can add a second terminating NUL byte. since the
parser is a very internal thing to EvalState we can ensure that having
two terminating NUL bytes is always possible without copying, and have
the parser itself merely check that the expected NULs are present.

61a9d16d5c don't strdup tokens in the lexer
every stringy token the lexer returns is turned into a Symbol and not
used further, so we don't have to strdup. using a string_view is
sufficient, but due to limitations of the current parser we have to use
a POD type that holds the same information.

gives ~2% on system build, 6% on search, 8% on parsing alone

5838354d34 optimize ExprConcatStrings::eval
constructing an ostringstream for non-string concats (like integer addition) is
a small constant cost that we can avoid. for string concats we can keep all the
string temporaries we get from coerceToString and concatenate them in one go,
which saves a lot of intermediate temporaries and copies in ostringstream. we
can also avoid copying the concatenated string again by directly allocating it
in GC memory and moving ownership of the concatenated string into the target
value.

saves about 2% on system eval.

e9a4abdb5d Make --repair-path also repair corrupt optimised links
There already existed a smoke test for the link content length,
but it appears that there exists some corruptions pernicious enough
to replace the file content with zeros, and keeping the same length.

--repair-path now goes as far as checking the content of the link,
making it true to its name and actually repairing the path for such
coruption cases.

26a8b220eb avoid ostream sentries per json string character
we don't have to create an ostream sentry object for every character of a JSON
string we write. format a bunch of characters and flush them to the stream all
at once instead.

this doesn't affect small numbers of string characters, but larger numbers of
total JSON string characters written gain a lot. at 1MB of total string written
we gain almost 30%, at 16MB it's almost a factor of 3x. large numbers of JSON
string characters do occur naturally in a nixos system evaluation to generate
documentation (though this is now somewhat mitigated by caching the largest part
of nixos option docs).
