In addition:
- Take the opportunity to add a bunch more missing hyperlinks, too.
- Remove some glossary entries that are now subsumed by dedicated pages.
We used to not be able to do this without breaking link fragments, but
now we can, so pick up where we left off.

This is useful for diagnosing whether an evaluation is copying large
paths to the store. Example:
$ nix build .#packages.x86_64-linux.default --large-path-warning-threshold 1000000
warning: copied large path '/home/eelco/Dev/nix-master/' to the store (6271792 bytes)
warning: copied large path '«github:NixOS/nixpkgs/b550fe4b4776908ac2a861124307045f8e717c8e?narHash=sha256-7kkJQd4rZ%2BvFrzWu8sTRtta5D1kBG0LSRYAfhtmMlSo%3D»/' to the store (155263768 bytes)

the old `copyFile` was just a wrapper that was calling the `copy`
function. This wrapper function is removed and the `copy` function is
renamed to `copyFile`.
Building derivations is a lot harder, but the downloading goals is
portable enough.
The "common channel" code is due to Volth. I wonder if there is a way we
can factor it out into separate functions / files to avoid some
within-function CPP.

Sometimes we read a directory with children we cannot stat. It's a pitty
we even try to stat at all (wasteful) in the `DT_UNKNOWN` case, but at
least this should get rid of the failure.
This makes for shorter and more portable code.
The only tricky part is catching exceptions: I just searched for near by
`catch (Error &)` or `catch (SysError &)` and adjusted them to `catch
(std::filesystem::filesystem_error &)` according to my human judgement.
Good for windows portability; will help @siddhantk232 with his GSOC
project.
Now that SourcePath uses a SourceAccessor instead of an InputAccessor,
we can use it in function signatures instead of passing a
SourceAccessor and CanonPath separately.
After the removal of the InputAccessor::fetchToStore() method, the
only remaining functionality in InputAccessor was `fingerprint` and
`getLastModified()`, and there is no reason to keep those in a
separate class.
Fix formatting violations, update blacklist to reflect moved files.
PR #10556 passed CI before the new formating rules were added, and our
CI has the race condition of allowing old results, resulting in master
getting broken.
Windows now has some basic Unix Domain Socket support, see
https://devblogs.microsoft.com/commandline/af_unix-comes-to-windows/
Building `nix daemon` on Windows I've left for later, because the daemon
currently forks per connection but this is not an option on Windows. But
we can get the client part working right away.
At this point many features are stripped out, but this works:
- Can run libnix{util,store,expr} unit tests
- Can run some Nix commands

This requires moving resolveSymlinks() into SourceAccessor. Also, it
requires LocalStoreAccessor::maybeLstat() to work on parents of the
store (to avoid an error like "/nix is not in the store").
Fixes#10375.
Forcing a conditional include, vs making the headers content
conditional, I think is more maintainable.
It is also how the other platform-specific headers (like
`namespaces.hh`) have been adapted.
It's a little weird we don't check the return status for these, but
changing that would introduce risk so I did not.

This introduces new utility functions to get elements from JSON — in an ergonomic way and with nice error messages if the expected type does not match.

This splits files and adds new identifiers in preperation for supporting
windows, but no Windows-specific code is actually added yet.

This patch makes `makeDecompressionSink` strip only a single layer
of compression specified via method. This fixes erroneous decompression
of doubly-compressed NARs fetched with curl.
This function is nice for more than `PosixSourceAccessor`. We can make a
few things simpler with it.
Note that the error logic slightly changes in some of the call sites, in
that we also count `ENOTDIR` and not just `ENOENT` as not having the
file, but that should be fine.
HintFmt(string) invokes the HintFmt("%s", literal) constructor,
which is not what we want here. Add a constructor with a proper name
and call that.
Next step: rename all the other ones to HintFmt::literal(string).
Fixes https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/10238
Fixes an instance of
nix: src/libutil/util.cc:139: nix::Path nix::canonPath(PathView, bool): Assertion `path != ""' failed.
... which I've been getting in one of my shells for some reason.
I have yet to find out why TMPDIR was empty, but it's no reason for
Nix to break.
