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;
    };
  };

Fix 32-bit overflow with --no-net
--no-net causes tarballTtl to be set to the largest 32-bit integer,
which causes comparison like 'time + tarballTtl < other_time' to
fail on 32-bit systems. So cast them to 64-bit first.

Make flake input fetching lazy
As long as the flake input is locked, it is now only fetched when it
is evaluated (e.g. "nixpkgs" is fetched when
"inputs.nixpkgs.<something>" is evaluated).

This required adding an "id" attribute to the members of "inputs" in
lockfiles, e.g.

  "inputs": {
    "nixpkgs/release-19.03": {
      "id": "nixpkgs",
      "inputs": {},
      "narHash": "sha256-eYtxncIMFVmOHaHBtTdPGcs/AnJqKqA6tHCm0UmPYQU=",
      "nonFlakeInputs": {},
      "uri": "github:edolstra/nixpkgs/e9d5882bb861dc48f8d46960e7c820efdbe8f9c1"
    }
  }

because the flake ID needs to be known beforehand to construct the
"inputs" attrset.

Fixes #2913.

90fe1dfd2f Register flake source trees as GC roots
This ensures that flakes don't get garbage-collected, which is
important to get nix-channel-like behaviour.

For example, running

  $ nix build hydra:

will create a GC root

  ~/.cache/nix/flake-closures/hydra -> /nix/store/xarfiqcwa4w8r4qpz1a769xxs8c3phgn-flake-closure

where the contents/references of the linked file in the store are the
flake source trees used by the 'hydra' flake:

  /nix/store/n6d5f5lkpfjbmkyby0nlg8y1wbkmbc7i-source
  /nix/store/vbkg4zy1qd29fnhflsv9k2j9jnbqd5m2-source
  /nix/store/z46xni7d47s5wk694359mq9ay353ar94-source

Note that this in itself is not enough to allow offline use; the
fetcher for the flakeref (e.g. fetchGit or downloadCached) must not
fail if it cannot fetch the latest version of the file, so long as it
knows a cached version.

Issue #2868.

c996e04aca Allow relative paths in flakerefs
Also allow "." as an installable to refer to the flake in the current
directory. E.g.

  $ nix build .

will build 'provides.defaultPackage' in the flake in the current
directory.

6a4c7fb975 Add path flakeref variant
Unlike file://<path>, this allows the path to be a dirty Git tree, so

  nix build /path/to/flake:attr

is a convenient way to test building a local flake.

154244adc6 nix: New installables syntax
The general syntax for an installable is now
<flakeref>:<attrpath>. The attrpath is relative to the flake's
'provides.packages' or 'provides' if the former doesn't yield a
result. E.g.

  $ nix build nixpkgs:hello

is equivalent to

  $ nix build nixpkgs:packages.hello

Also, '<flakeref>:' can be omitted, in which case it defaults to
'nixpkgs', e.g.

  $ nix build hello

nix: Add --flake flag
This allows using an arbitrary "provides" attribute from the specified
flake. For example:

  nix build --flake nixpkgs packages.hello

(Maybe provides.packages should be used for consistency...)

nix: Enable pure mode by default
We want to encourage a brave new world of hermetic evaluation for
source-level reproducibility, so flakes should not poke around in the
filesystem outside of their explicit dependencies.

Note that the default installation source remains impure in that it
can refer to mutable flakes, so "nix build nixpkgs.hello" still works
(and fetches the latest nixpkgs, unless it has been pinned by the
user).

A problem with pure evaluation is that builtins.currentSystem is
unavailable. For the moment, I've hard-coded "x86_64-linux" in the
nixpkgs flake. Eventually, "system" should be a flake function
argument.

Add github URIs
For example, github:edolstra/dwarffs is more-or-less equivalent to
https://github.com/edolstra/dwarffs.git. It's a much faster way to get
GitHub repositories: it fetches tarballs rather than entire Git
repositories. It also allows fetching specific revisions by hash
without specifying a ref (e.g. a branch name):
