72f42093e7 optimize unescapeStr
mainly to avoid an allocation and a copy of a string that can be
modified in place (ever since EvalState holds on to the buffer, not the
generated parser itself).

34e3bd10e3 avoid copies of parser input data
when given a string yacc will copy the entire input to a newly allocated
location so that it can add a second terminating NUL byte. since the
parser is a very internal thing to EvalState we can ensure that having
two terminating NUL bytes is always possible without copying, and have
the parser itself merely check that the expected NULs are present.

61a9d16d5c don't strdup tokens in the lexer
every stringy token the lexer returns is turned into a Symbol and not
used further, so we don't have to strdup. using a string_view is
sufficient, but due to limitations of the current parser we have to use
a POD type that holds the same information.

gives ~2% on system build, 6% on search, 8% on parsing alone

1bebb1095a cache more often-used symbols for primops
there's a few symbols in primops we can create once and pick them out of
EvalState afterwards instead of creating them every time we need them. this

5838354d34 optimize ExprConcatStrings::eval
constructing an ostringstream for non-string concats (like integer addition) is
a small constant cost that we can avoid. for string concats we can keep all the
string temporaries we get from coerceToString and concatenate them in one go,
which saves a lot of intermediate temporaries and copies in ostringstream. we
can also avoid copying the concatenated string again by directly allocating it
in GC memory and moving ownership of the concatenated string into the target
value.

saves about 2% on system eval.

00c993f48b add zipAttrsWith primop
nixpkgs can save a good bit of eval memory with this primop. zipAttrsWith is
used quite a bit around nixpkgs (eg in the form of recursiveUpdate), but the
most costly application for this primop is in the module system. it improves
the implementation of zipAttrsWith from nixpkgs by not checking an attribute
multiple times if it occurs more than once in the input list, allocates less
values and set elements, and just avoids many a temporary object in general.

nixpkgs has a more generic version of this operation, zipAttrsWithNames, but
this version is only used once so isn't suitable for being the base of a new
primop. if it were to be used more we should add a second primop instead.

flake.cc: computeLocks: Only verify overrides when they could change
When we check for disappeared overrides, we can get "false positives"
for follows and overrides which are defined in the dependencies of the
flake we are locking, since they are not parsed by
parseFlakeInputs. However, at that point we already know that the
overrides couldn't have possible been changed if the input itself
hasn't changed (since we check that oldLock->originalRef == *input.ref
for the input's parent). So, to prevent this, only perform this check
when it was possible that the flake changed (e.g. the flake we're
locking, or a new input, or the input has changed and mustRefetch ==
true).

09b245690a bulk-allocate Value instances in the evaluator
calling GC_malloc for each value is significantly more expensive than
allocating a bunch of values at once with GC_malloc_many. "a bunch" here
is a GC block size, ie 16KiB or less.

this gives a 1.5% performance boost when evaluating our nixos system.

Flakes: computeLocks: pass correct LockParent when reusing oldLock
Previously, when we were attempting to reuse the old lockfile
information in the computeLocks function, we have passed the parent of
the current input to the next computeLocks call. This was incorrect,
since the follows are resolved relative to the parent. This caused
issues when we tried to reuse oldLock but couldn't for some
reason (read: mustRefetch is true), in that case the follows were
resolved incorrectly.

Fix this by passing the correct parent, and adding some tests to
prevent this particular regression from happening again.

Don't move the arguments of the primOp
Moving arguments of the primOp into the registration structure makes it
impossible to initialize a second EvalState with the correct primOp
registration. It will end up registering all those "RegisterPrimOp"'s
with an arity of zero on all but the 2nd instance of the EvalState.

Not moving the memory will add a tiny bit of memory overhead during the
eval since we need a copy of all the argument lists of all the primOp's.
The overhead shouldn't be too bad as it is static (based on the amonut
of registered operations) and only occurs once during the interpreter
startup.

d7bae52b9d Call functors with both arguments at once
This is not really useful on its own, but it does recover the
'infinite recursion' error message for '{ __functor = x: x; } 1', and
is more efficient in conjunction with #3718.

Fixes #5515.

Flakes: refetch the input when a follows disappears
When an input follows disappears, we can't just reuse the old lock
file entries since we may be missing some required ones. Refetch the
input when this happens.

addPath: allow paths with references
Since 4806f2f6b0, we can't have paths with
references passed to builtins.{path,filterSource}. This prevents many cases
of those functions called on IFD outputs from working. Resolve this by
passing the references found in the original path to the added path.

1f3c3a3785 Make the flake options work when using the daemon
When setting flake-local options (with the `nixConfig` field), forward
these options to the daemon in case we’re using one.

This is necessary in particular for options like `binary-caches` or
`post-build-hook` to make sense.

81e7c40264 Optimize primop calls
We now parse function applications as a vector of arguments rather
than as a chain of binary applications, e.g. 'substring 1 2 "foo"' is
parsed as

  ExprCall { .fun = <substring>, .args = [ <1>, <2>, <"foo"> ] }

rather than

  ExprApp (ExprApp (ExprApp <substring> <1>) <2>) <"foo">

This allows primops to be called immediately (if enough arguments are
supplied) without having to allocate intermediate tPrimOpApp values.

On

  $ nix-instantiate --dry-run '<nixpkgs/nixos/release-combined.nix>' -A nixos.tests.simple.x86_64-linux

this gives a substantial performance improvement:

  user CPU time:      median =      0.9209  mean =      0.9218  stddev =      0.0073  min =      0.9086  max =      0.9340  [rejected, p=0.00000, Δ=-0.21433±0.00677]
  elapsed time:       median =      1.0585  mean =      1.0584  stddev =      0.0024  min =      1.0523  max =      1.0623  [rejected, p=0.00000, Δ=-0.20594±0.00236]

because it reduces the number of tPrimOpApp allocations from 551990 to
42534 (i.e. only small minority of primop calls are partially
applied) which in turn reduces time spent in the garbage collector.

af99941279 Make experimental-features a proper type
Rather than having them plain strings scattered through the whole
codebase, create an enum containing all the known experimental features.

This means that
- Nix can now `warn` when an unkwown experimental feature is passed
  (making it much nicer to spot typos and spot deprecated features)
- It’s now easy to remove a feature altogether (once the feature isn’t
  experimental anymore or is dropped) by just removing the field for the
  enum and letting the compiler point us to all the now invalid usages
  of it.
