We're not replacing `Path` in exposed definitions in many cases, but
just adding alternatives. This will allow us to "top down" change `Path`
to `std::fileysystem::path`, and then we can remove the `Path`-using
utilities which will become unused.
Also add some test files which we forgot to include in the libutil unit
tests `meson.build`.

`make check` was reverted too soon. The hacking guide wasn't brought
up to date with the new workflow, and it's not clear how to use
meson for everything.
This reverts commit 6f3045c2a2.
Now that we can run all tests with Meson, we want developers making code
changes to use it.
(Only the manual needs to be built with the build system, and that will
change shortly.)
This reverts commit b0bc2a97bf.
This ended up motivating a good deal of other infra improvements in
order to get Windows right:
- `OsString` to complement `std::filesystem::path`
- env var code for working with the underlying `OsString`s
- Rename `PATHNG_LITERAL` to `OS_STR`
- `NativePathTrait` renamed to `OsPathTrait`, given a character template
parameter until #9205 is complete.
Split `tests.cc` matching split of `util.{cc,hh}` last year.

The test split matches PR #8920, so the utility files and tests files
are once again to 1-1. The string changes continues what was started in
PR #11093.
This also bans various sneaking of negative numbers from the language
into unsuspecting builtins as was exposed while auditing the
consequences of changing the Nix language integer type to a newtype.
It's unlikely that this change comprehensively ensures correctness when
passing integers out of the Nix language and we should probably add a
checked-narrowing function or something similar, but that's out of scope
for the immediate change.
During the development of this I found a few fun facts about the
language:
- You could overflow integers by converting from unsigned JSON values.
- You could overflow unsigned integers by converting negative numbers
into them when going into Nix config, into fetchTree, and into flake
inputs.
The flake inputs and Nix config cannot actually be tested properly
since they both ban thunks, however, we put in checks anyway because
it's possible these could somehow be used to do such shenanigans some
other way.
Note that Lix has banned Nix language integer overflows since the very
first public beta, but threw a SIGILL about them because we run with
-fsanitize=signed-overflow -fsanitize-undefined-trap-on-error in
production builds. Since the Nix language uses signed integers, overflow
was simply undefined behaviour, and since we defined that to trap, it
did.
Trapping on it was a bad UX, but we didn't even entirely notice
that we had done this at all until it was reported as a bug a couple of
months later (which is, to be fair, that flag working as intended), and
it's got enough production time that, aside from code that is IMHO buggy
(and which is, in any case, not in nixpkgs) such as
https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/issues/445, we don't think
anyone doing anything reasonable actually depends on wrapping overflow.
Even for weird use cases such as doing funny bit crimes, it doesn't make
sense IMO to have wrapping behaviour, since two's complement arithmetic
overflow behaviour is so *aggressively* not what you want for *any* kind
of mathematics/algorithms. The Nix language exists for package
management, a domain where bit crimes are already only dubiously in
scope to begin with, and it makes a lot more sense for that domain for
the integers to never lose precision, either by throwing errors if they
would, or by being arbitrary-precision.

Few filesystem-related tests rely on PATH_MAX for buffers, and PATH_MAX
is optional in POSIX (and not available on the Hurd). To make them build
and pass, provide a fallback definition of PATH_MAX in case not
available.
Ideally speaking, the tests ought to not unconditionally rely on
PATH_MAX, do alternative strategies (e.g. dynamically allocate buffers,
expand them as needed, etc); OTOH this is test code, so it would be more
work that what it would be worth, so IMHO the define fallback is good
enough.
Currently, the worker protocol has a version number that we increment
whenever we change something in the protocol. However, this can cause
a collision between Nix PRs / forks that make protocol changes
(e.g. PR #9857 increments the version, which could collide with
another PR). So instead, the client and daemon now exchange a set of
protocol features (such as `auth-forwarding`). They will use the
intersection of the sets of features, i.e. the features they both
support.
Note that protocol features are completely distinct from
`ExperimentalFeature`s.
Following what is outlined in #10766 refactor the uds-remote-store such
that the member variables (state) don't live in the store itself but in
the config object.
Additionally, the config object includes a new necessary constructor
that takes a scheme & authority.
Tests are commented out because of linking errors with the current config system.
When there is a new config system we can reenable them.

Progress towards #10766
I thought that #10768 achieved, but when I went to use this stuff (in
Hydra), turns out it did not. (Those `using FooConfig;` lines were not
working --- they are so finicky!) This PR gets the job done, and adds
some trivial unit tests to make sure I did what I intended.
I had to add add a header to expose `SSHStoreConfig`, after which the
preexisting `ssh-store-config.*` were very confusingly named files, so I
renamed them to `common-ssh-store-config.hh` to match the type defined
therein.
This makes it possible to certain discern failures from empty
snippets, which I think is an ok review comment.
Maybe it should do so for swapped column indexes too, but I'm not
sure.
I don't think it matters in the grand scheme. We don't even have
a real use case for `nullopt` now anyway.
Since we don't have a use case, I'm not applying this logic to
higher level functions yet.
Known behavior changes:
- `MemorySourceAccessor`'s comparison operators no longer forget to
compare the `SourceAccessor` base class.
Progress on #10832
What remains for that issue is hopefully much easier!
Progress on #5638
There are still a global fetcher and eval settings, but they are pushed
down into `libnixcmd`, which is a lot less bad a place for this sort of
thing.
Continuing process pioneered in
52bfccf8d8.
- use the iterator in `CanonPath` to count `level`
- use the `CanonPath::basename` method
- use `CanonPath::root` instead of `CanonPath{""}`
- remove `Path` and `PathView`, use `std::filesystem::path` directly
