60045f9c96 add clickable anchor links
how the different invocations relate to each other seems be
confusing, which is relatable because one has to wire it up in your head
while reading. an explicit reference should make it unambiguous and
easier to notice due to links being highlighted.

Don't hardcode the -O2 compiler flag
autoconf authors apparently decided that setting `-O2` by default was a good idea. I disagree, and Nix has its own way of deciding that (with `OPTIMIZE={0,1}`). Explicitly set `CFLAGS` and `CXXFLAGS` in the configure script to disable that behaviour.

Fix #9965

Rename hintfmt to HintFmt 2024-02-08 11:58:25 -08:00

Cleanup fmt.hh
When I started contributing to Nix, I found the mix of definitions and
names in `fmt.hh` to be rather confusing, especially the small
difference between `hintfmt` and `hintformat`. I've renamed many classes
and added documentation to most definitions.

- `formatHelper` is no longer exported.
- `fmt`'s documentation is now with `fmt` rather than (misleadingly)
  above `formatHelper`.
- `yellowtxt` is renamed to `Magenta`.

  `yellowtxt` wraps its value with `ANSI_WARNING`, but `ANSI_WARNING`
  has been equal to `ANSI_MAGENTA` for a long time. Now the name is
  updated.
- `normaltxt` is renamed to `Uncolored`.
- `hintfmt` has been merged into `hintformat` as extra constructor
  functions.
- `hintformat` has been renamed to `hintfmt`.
- The single-argument `hintformat(std::string)` constructor has been
  renamed to a static member `hintformat::interpolate` to avoid pitfalls
  with using user-generated strings as format strings.

4687beecef Get rid of CanonPath::fromCwd
As discussed in the last Nix team meeting (2024-02-95), this method
doesn't belong because `CanonPath` is a virtual/ideal absolute path
format, not used in file systems beyond the native OS format for which a
"current working directory" is defined.

Progress towards #9205

the Netlify `_redirects` file must be in the root directory [0] of the
files to serve, and mdBook copies all the files in `src` that aren't
`.md` to the output directory [1].

Pretty-print values in the REPL
Pretty-print values in the REPL by printing each item in a list or
attrset on a separate line. When possible, single-item lists and
attrsets are printed on one line, as long as they don't contain a nested
list, attrset, or thunk.

Before:
```
{ attrs = { a = { b = { c = { }; }; }; }; list = [ 1 ]; list' = [ 1 2 3 ]; }
```

After:
```
{
  attrs = {
    a = {
      b = {
        c = { };
      };
    };
  };
  list = [ 1 ];
  list' = [
    1
    2
    3
  ];
}
```
