6f3045c2a2 Remove unit tests from old build system
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.

7feabf7d44 Split --disable-tests, fix cross builds
It might seem obnoxious to have yet more configure flags, but I found
controlling both the unit and functional tests with one flag was quite
confusing because they are so different:

- unit tests depending on building, functional tests don't (e.g. when
  we test already-built Nix)

- unit tests can be installed, functional tests cannot

- unit tests neeed extra libraries (GTest, RapidCheck), functional
  tests need extra executables (jq).

- unit tests are run by `make check`, functional tests are run by `make
  installcheck`

Really on a technical level, they seem wholly independent. Only on a
human level ("they are both are tests") do they have anything in common.

I had messed up the logic in cross builds because of this. Now I
split the flag in two (and cleaned up a few other inconsistencies), and
the logic fixed itself.

6c8f4ef350 Allow installing unit tests
Closes #9343

See that issue for motivation.

Installing these is disabled by default, but we enable it (and the
additional output we want isntall these too so as not to clutter the
existing ones) to use in cross builds and dev shells.

47b3508665 Use positive source filtering for the standalone functional tests job
Additionally this skipping of the building is reimplemented to be a bit
more robust and use the same idioms as the functionality for skipping
the tests. In particular, it will now work even if the source files
exist, so we can do this during development too.

6910f5dcb6 Generate API docs with Doxygen
The motivation is as stated in issue #7814: even though the the C++ API
is internal and unstable, people still want it to be well documented for
sake of learning, code review, and other purposes that aren't predicated
on it being stable.

Fixes #7814

8648ebc2cc Add ./configure --disable-tests option
Building without tests is useful for bootstrapping with a smaller footprint
or running the tests in a separate derivation. Otherwise, we do compile and
run them.

This isn't fine grained as to allow picking `check` but not `installcheck`
or vice versa, but it's good enough for now.

I've tried to use Nixpkgs' `checkInputs`, but those inputs weren't discovered
properly by the configure script. We can emulate its behavior very well though.

925b975224 Embed the sandbox shell into the statically linked 'nix' binary
With this, Nix will write a copy of the sandbox shell to /bin/sh in
the sandbox rather than bind-mounting it from the host filesystem.
This makes /bin/sh work out of the box with nix-static, i.e. you no
longer get

Apply OS checks to host platform, not build
Previously, the build system used uname(1) output when it wanted to
check the operating system it was being built for, which meant that it
didn't take into-account cross-compilation when the build and host
operating systems were different.

To fix this, instead of consulting uname output, we consult the host
triple, specifically the third "kernel" part.

For "kernel"s with stable ABIs, like Linux or Cygwin, we can use a
simple ifeq to test whether we're compiling for that system, but for
other platforms, like Darwin, FreeBSD, or Solaris, we have to use a
more complicated check to take into account the version numbers at the
end of the "kernel"s.  I couldn't find a way to just strip these
version numbers in GNU Make without shelling out, which would be even
more ugly IMO.  Because these checks differ between kernels, and the
patsubst ones are quite fiddly, I've added variables for each host OS
we might want to check to make them easier to reuse.

2de232d2b3 Add x86_64 compute levels as additional system types
When performing distributed builds of machine learning packages, it
would be nice if builders without the required SIMD instructions can
be excluded as build nodes.

Since x86_64 has accumulated a large number of different instruction
set extensions, listing all possible extensions would be unwieldy.
AMD, Intel, Red Hat, and SUSE have recently defined four different
microarchitecture levels that are now part of the x86-64 psABI
supplement and will be used in glibc 2.33:

https://gitlab.com/x86-psABIs/x86-64-ABI
https://lwn.net/Articles/844831/

This change uses libcpuid to detect CPU features and then uses them to
add the supported x86_64 levels to the additional system types. For
example on a Ryzen 3700X:

$ ~/aps/bin/nix -vv --version | grep "Additional system"
Additional system types: i686-linux, x86_64-v1-linux, x86_64-v2-linux, x86_64-v3-linux

fix make's impurity on /bin/sh
This is important when using tooling like BEAR to generate
compilation database since the used glibc version needs to match
for LD_PRELOAD to work. It might be also beneficial when building
on systems other than NixOS with nix develop since /bin/sh might
be not bash (which is what all nix devs use for testing).
This fix is not perfect because Makefile.config.in itself is
also build with make but strictly better than the status quo.

a96006d97f Get BOOST_LDFLAGS from autoconf, fix Ubuntu 16.04 build.
Our use of boost::coroutine2 depends on -lboost_context,
which in turn depends on `-lboost_thread`, which in turn depends
on `-lboost_system`.

I suspect that this builds on nix only because of low-level hacks
like NIX_LDFLAGS.

This commit passes the proper linker flags, thus fixing bootstrap
builds on non-nix distributions like Ubuntu 16.04.

With these changes, I can build Nix on Ubuntu 16.04 using:

    ./bootstrap.sh
    ./configure --prefix=$HOME/editline-prefix \
      --disable-doc-gen \
      CXX=g++-7 \
      --with-boost=$HOME/boost-prefix \
      EDITLINE_CFLAGS=-I$HOME/editline-prefix/include \
      EDITLINE_LIBS=-leditline \
      LDFLAGS=-L$HOME/editline-prefix/lib
    make

where

* g++-7 comes from gcc-7 from
  https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-toolchain-r/+archive/ubuntu/test,
* editline 1.14 from https://github.com/troglobit/editline/releases/tag/1.14.0
	was installed into `$HOME/editline-prefix`
  (because Ubuntu 16.04's `editline` is too old to have the function nix uses),
* boost 1.66 from
	https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_66_0/more/getting_started/unix-variants.html
	was installed into $HOME/boost-prefix (because Ubuntu 16.04 only has 1.58)

9dd2b8ac7b use libbrotli directly when available
* Look for both 'brotli' and 'bro' as external command,
  since upstream has renamed it in newer versions.
  If neither are found, current runtime behavior
  is preserved: try to find 'bro' on PATH.
* Limit amount handed to BrotliEncoderCompressStream
  to ensure interrupts are processed in a timely manner.
  Testing shows negligible performance impact.
  (Other compression sinks don't seem to require this)

Add build dependency for libseccomp
We're going to use libseccomp instead of creating the raw BPF program,
because we have different syscall numbers on different architectures.

Although our initial seccomp rules will be quite small it really doesn't
make sense to generate the raw BPF program because we need to duplicate
it and/or make branches on every single architecture we want to suuport.
