This speeds up the creation of the cache for the nixpkgs flake from
21.2s to 10.2s. Oddly, it also speeds up querying the cache
(i.e. running 'nix flake show nixpkgs/nixos-20.03 --legacy') from 4.2s
to 3.4s.
(For comparison, running with --no-eval-cache takes 9.5s, so the
overhead of building the SQLite cache is only 0.7s.)
In the fully cached case for the 'nixpkgs' flake, it went from 101s to
4.6s. Populating the cache went from 132s to 17.4s (which could
probably be improved further by combining INSERTs).
Usually this just writes to stdout, but for ProgressBar, we need to
clear the current line, write the line to stdout, and then redraw the
progress bar.

Usually this just writes to stdout, but for ProgressBar, we need to
clear the current line, write the line to stdout, and then redraw the
progress bar.
Motivation: maintain project-level configuration files.
Document the whole situation a bit better so that it corresponds to the
implementation, and add NIX_USER_CONF_FILES that allows overriding
which user files Nix will load during startup.
Previously the memory would occasionally be collected during eval since
the GC doesn't consider the member variable as alive / doesn't scan the
region of memory where the pointer lives.
By using the traceable_allocator<T> allocator provided by Boehm GC we
can ensure the memory isn't collected. It should be properly freed when
SourceExprCommand goes out of scope.
This doesn't just cause problems for nix-store --serve but also results
in certain build failures. Builds that use unix domain sockets in their
tests often fail because the /var/folders prefix already consumes more
than half of the maximum length of socket paths.

A test case for correct handling of temporary directory deletion that
was added to check.sh as part of PR #2689 was initially disabled for
Darwin because of a directory permission issue in PR #2688.
Now that the issue in PR #2688 is fixed, this commit enables the test
case for Darwin.
Temporarily add user-write permission to build directory so that it
can be moved out of the sandbox to the store with a .check suffix.
This is necessary because the build directory has already had its
permissions set read-only, but write permission is required
to update the directory's parent link to move it out of the sandbox.
Updated the related --check "derivation may not be deterministic"
messages to consistently use the real store paths.
Added test for non-root sandbox nix-build --check -K to demonstrate
issue and help prevent regressions.
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.
With --check and the --keep-failed (-K) flag, the temporary directory
was being retained regardless of whether the build was successful and
reproducible. This removes the temporary directory, as expected, on
a reproducible check build.
Added tests to verify that temporary build directories are not
retained unnecessarily, particularly when using --check with
--keep-failed.
