We are currently building Nix twice in the main GHA CI job, which is
frequently timing out. Obviously, we want this to be fast, so only do
the main build for now.
This ensures just `nix build`-ing the flake doesn't forget to run all
tests. One can still specifiy specific attributes to just build one
thing.

As discussed in our meeting, we should use a simplified version for the
libraries without the date or commit hash. This will make rebuilding a
lot faster in many cases.
Progress on #10379

This seems to have been the intent all along.
The odd combination of unit tests, but no functional tests caused a
build error where some data for the unit test was source-filtered out.
Apparently. It's unclear to me why that happened, so I'm proposing this
alternate "fix" to get the buildNoTests to pass.
It would be nice to test more configurations, but this mode of building
is on the way out anyway, so let's just make it pass and see what
configurations make sense to test as part of the meson migration.
* Only build perl subproject on Linux
* Fix various Windows regressions
* Don't put the emulator hook in test builds
We run the tests in a separate derivation. Only need it for the dev shell.
* Fix native dev shells
* Fix cross dev shells we don't know how to emulate

Got shellcheck passing for misc/systemv/nix-daemon
Not sure how to test this since it's not running on my NixOS machine and
I see no references to it in the directory otherwise.
See #10795
This avoids polluting nixComponents with things that aren't our
components.
Fixes the extraction of passthru tests, which failed for boehmgc
which had many irrelevant ones anyway.
flatMapAttrs is easier to read because it introduces the values
before using them, kind of like a `let` bindings with multiple
values.
The repeated comments remind the reader of the purpose of the
innermost attrsets, which is actually very simple.
Knowing that they go right into the result should help a lot
with building a mental model for this pattern.
This will avoid some out-of-memory issues in GitHub actions that result
from num jobs > 1 and num cores = 4. Once we only have the Meson build
system, this problem should go away, and we can reenable these jobs.

I hope this will make it easier to maintain, and also make it easier for
others to assist with porting the rest of the build system to Meson.

The idea is two-fold:
- Replace autotools with Meson
- Build each library in its own derivation
The interaction of these two features is that Meson's "subprojects"
feature (https://mesonbuild.com/Subprojects) allows us to have single
dev shell for building all libraries still, while also building things
separately. This allows us to break up the build without a huge
productivity lost.
I tested the Linux native build, and NetBSD and Windows cross builds.
Also do some clean ups of the Flake in the process of supporting new
jobs.

Manually tested by printing to stderr in both branches (sp in os
stack, or not), and triggering a GC in a filterSource function,
e.g.:
let
generateTree = n: if n == 0 then "ha" else { left = generateTree (n - 1); right = generateTree (n - 1); };
in
builtins.deepSeq (generateTree 18) ...
Note that the darwin still uses the strategy of disabling GC, despite
having an implementation that compiles. The proper solution will be
enabled and tested later.
