Before this commit, the dns lookup in preloadNSS would still go through
nscd. This did not have the effect of loading the nss_dns.so as expected
(nss_dns.so being out of reach from within the sandbox).
Should LOCALDOMAIN environment variable be defined, nss will completely
avoid nscd and will do its dns resolution on its own.
By temporarly setting LOCALDOMAIN variable before calling in NSS, we can
force NSS to load the shared libraries as expected.

In dry run mode, new derivations can't be create, so running the command on anything that has not been evaluated before results in an error message of the form `don't know how to build these paths (may be caused by read-only store access)`.
For comparison, the classical `nix-build --dry-run` doesn't use read-only mode.
Closes#1795
(cherry picked from commit 54525682df707742e58311c32e9c9cb18de1e31f)
If the store path contains a flake, this means that a command like
"nix path-info /path" will show info about /path, not about the
default output of the flake in /path. If you want the latter, you can
explicitly ask for it by doing "nix path-info path:/path".
Fixes#4568.
Store paths are only allowed to contain a limited subset of the
alphabet, which doesn’t include `!`. So don’t create lockfiles that
contain this `!` character as that would otherwise confuse (and break)
the gc.
Fix#5176
As reported in #5198, volume creation can fail with a permission error
for some macOS users (probably secondary user accounts?) Sudo appears
to be sufficient to avoid this.
While I'm here, I also updated the sudo invocation added in 079bde2ae
to use the _sudo explanation wrapper.
When doing e.g.
nix-build -A package --keep-failed --option \
builders \
'ssh://mfhydra?remote-store=/home/bosch/store x86_64-linux - 10 4 big-parallel'
this doesn't work properly because this build-setting is ignored.
I changed this behavior by passing the `settings.keepFailed` through the
serve-protocol to remote machines to make sure that I can introspect the
build-directory (which is particularly helpful when I have to look at a
`config.log` from a failed build for instance).
This fixes a use-after-free bug:
1. s = new EvalState();
2. callFlake()
3. static vCallFlake now references s
4. delete s;
5. s2 = new EvalState();
6. callFlake()
7. static vCallFlake still references s
8. crash
Nix 2.3 did not have a problem with recreating EvalState.
This fixes a class of crashes and introduces ptr<T> to make the
code robust against this failure mode going forward.
Thanks regnat for the idea of a ref<T> without overhead!

The link failure happens on a system with stable nix-2.3.15
installed in /usr/lib64 (it's libutil.so API differs from master):
```
LANG=C make V=1
g++ -o /home/slyfox/dev/git/nix/src/libstore/libnixstore.so \
-shared -L/usr/lib64 -Wl,--no-copy-dt-needed-entries \
src/libstore/binary-cache-store.o ... src/libstore/uds-remote-store.o \
-lsqlite3 -lcurl -lsodium -pthread -ldl -lseccomp -Wl,-z,defs -Wl,-soname=libnixstore.so
-Wl,-rpath,/home/slyfox/dev/git/nix/src/libutil -Lsrc/libutil -lnixutil
ld: src/libstore/binary-cache-store.o: in function `nix::BinaryCacheStore::BinaryCacheStore(
std::map<std::__cxx11::basic_string<char, std::char_traits<char>, ...
nix/src/libstore/binary-cache-store.cc:30: undefined reference to `nix::readFile(
std::__cxx11::basic_string<char, std::char_traits<char>, std::allocator<char> > const&)' ...
...
```
This happens due to `-L/usr/lib64 -Lsrc/libutil` search path ordering.
The change turns it into `-Lsrc/libutil -L/usr/lib64`.
