VLAs are a dangerous feature, and their usage triggers an undefined
behavior since theire size can be zero in some cases.
So replace them with `boost::small_vector`s which fit the same goal but
are safer.
It's also incidentally consistently 1% faster on the benchmarks.
SHELL was inherited from the system environment. This resulted in a new
shell being started, but with SHELL still referring to the system shell
and not the one used by nix-develop.
Applications like make, use SHELL to run commands, which meant that
top-level commands are run inside the nix-develop-shell, but
sub-commands are ran inside the system shell.
This setenv forces SHELL to always be set to the shell used by
nix-develop.

This is the core functionality but just unit-tested and not yet made
part of the store layer. This is because there is some tech debt around
(a) repeated boilerplate hashing objects (b) better integration of the
new `SourceAccessor` type that needs to be cleaned up first.

The basic idea here is to separate a few intertwined notions:
1. Not all "run bash tests" are "install tests"
2. Not all "run bash tests" use `tests/functional/init.sh`, or any
pre-test initialization at all.
This will used in the next commit when we have a test that check unit
test golden master data.
Also, move our custom `PS4` from the test to the test runner, as it is
part of how we want to display the tests, not the test themselves.

As discussed in our last meeting, we need a bit more time, but we are
"time boxing" the work left to do to ensure there is not unbounded
delay.
Rather than putting it back underneath `flakes`, though, put it
underneath its own `fetch-tree` experimental feature (which `flakes`
includes/implies). This signals our commitment to the plan to stabilize
it first without waiting to go through the rest of Flakes, and also will
give users a "release candidate" when we get closer to stabilization.
This reverts commit 4112dd1fc9.
