Before it returned a list of JSON objects with store object information,
including the path in each object. Now, it maps the paths to JSON
objects with the metadata sans path.
This matches how `nix derivation show` works.
Quite hillariously, none of our existing functional tests caught this
change to `path-info --json` though they did use it. So just new
functional tests need to be added.
`Store::pathInfoToJSON` was a rather baroque functions, being full of
parameters to support both parsed derivations and `nix path-info`. The
common core of each, a simple `dValidPathInfo::toJSON` function, is
factored out, but the rest of the logic is just duplicated and then
specialized to its use-case (at which point it is no longer that
duplicated).
This keeps the human oriented CLI logic (which is currently unstable)
and the core domain logic (export reference graphs with structured
attrs, which is stable), separate, which I think is better.
Spent a while debugging why `nix-copy-closure` wasn't working anymore
and it was my shell RC printing something I added for debug.
Hopefully this can save someone else some time.
All OS and IO operations should be moved out, leaving only some misc
portable pure functions.
This is useful to avoid copious CPP when doing things like Windows and
Emscripten ports.
Newly exposed functions to break cycles:
- `restoreSignals`
- `updateWindowSize`
Deduplicating code moreover enforcing the pattern means:
- It is easier to write new characterization tests because less boilerplate
- It is harder to mess up new tests because there are fewer places to
make mistakes.

I wouldn't call it *good* yet, but this will do for now.
- `RetrieveRegularNARSink` renamed to `RegularFileSink` and moved
accordingly because it actually has nothing to do with NARs in
particular.
- its `fd` field is also marked private
- `copyRecursive` introduced to dump a `SourceAccessor` into a
`ParseSink`.
- `NullParseSink` made so `ParseSink` no longer has sketchy default
methods.
This was done while updating #8918 to work with the new
`SourceAccessor`.
The brings a number of advantages, including:
- Easier to update test data if design changes (and I do think our
derivation JSON is not yet complaint with the guidelines).
- Easier to reuse test data in other implementations, inching closer to
compliance tests for Nix *the concept* rather than any one
implementation.
Before the change builder ID exhaustion printed the following message:
[0/1 built] waiting for UID to build '/nix/store/hiy9136x0iyib4ssh3w3r5m8pxjnad50-python3.11-breathe-4.35.0.drv'
After the change it should be:
[0/1 built] waiting for a free build user ID for '/nix/store/hiy9136x0iyib4ssh3w3r5m8pxjnad50-python3.11-breathe-4.35.0.drv'
Rather than having a misc tutorial page in the grab-bag "package management" section, this information should just be part of the S3 store docs.

It does not belong with the data type itself.
This also materializes the fact that `copyPath` does not do any version
negotiation just just hard-codes "16".
The non-standard interface of these serializers makes it harder to test,
but this is fixed in the next commit which then adds those tests.
Worker Protocol:
Note that the worker protocol already had a serialization for
`BuildResult`; this was added in
a4604f1928. It didn't have any versioning
support because at that time reusable seralizers were not away for the protocol
version. It could thus only be used for new messages also introduced in
that commit.
Now that we do support versioning in reusable serializers, we can expand
it to support all known versions and use it in many more places.
The exist test data becomes the version 1.29 tests: note that those
files' contents are unchanged. 1.28 and 1.27 tests are added to cover
the older code-paths.
The keyered build result test only has 1.29 because the keying was also
added in a4604f19284254ac98f19a13ff7c2216de7fe176; the older
serializations are always used unkeyed.
Serve Protocol:
Conversely, no attempt was made to factor out such a serializer for the
serve protocol, so our work there in this commit for that protocol
proceeds from scratch.
It was some ad-hoc functions to account for versions, while the already
factored-out serializer just supported the latest version.
Now, we can fold that version-specific logic into the factored out one,
and so we do.
It is dead code. It was added in
8e0946e8df as part of the repeated /
enforce-determinism feature, but that was removed in
8fdd156a65.
It is not good because it skips many fields. For testing purposes we
will soon want to add a new one that doesn't skip fields, but we want to
make sure making == sensitive to those fields won't change how Nix
works. Proving in this commit that the old version is dead code achieves
that.
