When --unpack was used the nix would add the current directory to the
nix store instead of the content of unpacked.
The reason for this is that std::distance already consumes the iterator.
To fix this we re-instantiate the directory iterator in case the
directory only contains a single entry.
The code that counts the number of elided attrs incorrectly used the
per-printer "global" attribute counter instead of a counter that
was relevant only to the current attribute set.
This bug flew under the radar because often the attribute sets aren't
nested, not big enough, or we wouldn't pay attention to the numbers.
I've noticed the issue because the difference underflowed.
Although this behavior is tested by the functional test
lang/eval-fail-bad-string-interpolation-4.nix, the underflow slipped
through review. A simpler reproducer would be as follows, but I
haven't added it to the test suite to keep it simple and marginally
faster.
```
$ nix run nix/2.23.1 -- eval --expr '"" + (let v = { a = { a = 1; b = 2; c = 1; d = 1; e = 1; f = 1; g = 1; h = 1; }; b = { a = 1; b = 1; c = 1; }; }; in builtins.deepSeq v v)'

This tests the Nix language side of things.
We are purposely skipping most of `common.sh` because it is overkill for
this test: we don't want to have an "overfit" test environment.

Instead of running the builds under
`$TMPDIR/{unique-build-directory-owned-by-the-build-user}`, run them
under `$TMPDIR/{unique-build-directory-owned-by-the-daemon}/{subdir-owned-by-the-build-user}`
where the build directory is only readable and traversable by the daemon user.
This achieves two things:
1. It prevents builders from making their build directory world-readable
(or even writeable), which would allow the outside world to interact
with them.
2. It prevents external processes running as the build user (either
because that somehow leaked, maybe as a consequence of 1., or because
`build-users` isn't in use) from gaining access to the build
directory.
... so that we may perhaps later extend the interface.
Note that Nixpkgs' lib.warn already requires a string coercible
argument, so this is reasonable. Also note that string coercible
values aren't all strings, but in practice, for warn, they are.
Fixes assertion failure if outputsToInstall is empty by defaulting to the "out"
output. That is, behavior between the following commands should be consistent:
$ nix build --no-link --json .#nothing-to-install-no-out
error: derivation '/nix/store/eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee-nothing-to-install-no-out.drv' does not have wanted outputs 'out'
$ nix build --no-link --file default.nix --json nothing-to-install-no-out
error: derivation '/nix/store/eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee-nothing-to-install-no-out.drv' does not have wanted outputs 'out'
Real-world example of this issue:
$ nix build --json .#.legacyPackages.aarch64-linux.texlive.pkgs.iwona
error: derivation '/nix/store/dj0h6b0pnlnan5nidnhqa0bmzq4rv6sx-iwona-0.995b.drv' does not have wanted outputs 'out'
$ git rev-parse HEAD
eee33247cf6941daea8398c976bd2dda7962b125
$ nix build --json --file . texlive.pkgs.iwona
nix: src/libstore/outputs-spec.hh:46: nix::OutputsSpec::Names::Names(std::set<std::__cxx11::basic_string<char> >&&): Assertion `!empty()' failed.
Aborted (core dumped)
In particular `local://<path>` and `unix://` (without any path) now
work, and mean the same things as `local` and `daemon`, respectively. We
thus now have the opportunity to desguar `local` and `daemon` early.
This will allow me to make a change to
https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/9839 requested during review to
desugar those earlier.

Basically I'd expect the same behavior as with `nix-build`, i.e.
with `--keep-going` the hash-mismatch error of each failing
fixed-output derivation is shown.
The approach is derived from `Store::buildPaths` (`entry-point.cc`):
instead of throwing the first build-result, check if there are any build
errors and if so, display all of them and throw after that.
Unfortunately, the BuildResult struct doesn't have an `ErrorInfo`
(there's a FIXME for that at least), so I have to construct my own here.
This is a rather cheap bugfix and I decided against touching too many
parts of libstore for that (also I don't know if that's in line with the
ongoing refactoring work).
