To quote the method doc:
Non-impure derivations can still behave impurely, to the degree permitted
by the sandbox. Hence why this method isn't `isPure`: impure derivations
are not the negation of pure derivations. Purity can not be ascertained
except by rather heavy tools.
Use `diff --color=always` to print colored output for language test
failures. I've also flipped the arguments so that expected lines missing
from the actual output will be marked with a red `-` and additional
lines found in the actual output will be marked with a green `+`.
Previously it was the other way around, which was very confusing.
The code works fine on macOS, but the default stack size we attempt to
set is larger than what my system will allow (Nix attempts to set the
stack size to 67108864, but the maximum allowed is 67092480), so I've
instead used the requested stack size or the maximum allowed, whichever
is smaller.
I've also added an error message if setting the stack size fails. It
looks like this:
> Failed to increase stack size from 8372224 to 67108864 (maximum
> allowed stack size: 67092480): Invalid argument
This extends the `error: cannot coerce a TYPE to a string` message
to print the value that could not be coerced. This helps with debugging
by making it easier to track down where the value is being produced
from, especially in errors with deep or unhelpful stack traces.
This is more conceptually correct (the order does not matter), and also
matches what Hydra already does.
(Nix and Hydra matching is needed for dedup
https://github.com/NixOS/hydra/issues/1164)
More invariants are enforced in the type, and less state needs to be
stored in the main sink itself. The method here is roughly that known as
"session types".

This avoids split-on-whitespace errors:
- No more `bash -c` needed
- No more `shellEscape` needed
- `remote-program` ssh store setting also cleanly supports args (e.g.
`nix daemon`)
- `ssh` uses `--` to separate args for SSH from args for the command to
run.
and will help with Hydra dedup.

Low-hanging fruit in the spirit of #9753 and #9754 (means 9999years did
all the hard work already).
This basically prints out what was attempted to be called as function,
i.e.
map (import <nixpkgs> {}) [ 1 2 3 ]
now gives the following error message:
error:
… while calling the 'map' builtin
at «string»:1:1:
1| map (import <nixpkgs> {}) [ 1 2 3 ]
| ^
… while evaluating the first argument passed to builtins.map
error: expected a function but found a set: { _type = "pkgs"; AAAAAASomeThingsFailToEvaluate = «thunk»; AMB-plugins = «thunk»; ArchiSteamFarm = «thunk»; BeatSaberModManager = «thunk»; CHOWTapeModel = «thunk»; ChowCentaur = «thunk»; ChowKick = «thunk»; ChowPhaser = «thunk»; CoinMP = «thunk»; «18783 attributes elided»}
