9923403d90 Don't use store-api.hh in worker-protocol.hh
Using abstract types like can help cut down on compilation time, both
from scratch, and especially incremental builds during development. The
idea is that `worker-protocol.hh` can declare all the (de)serializers, but
only again abstract types; when code needs to use some (de)serializers, it can
include headers just for the data types it needs to (de)serialize.

`store-api.hh` in particular is a bit of a sledgehammer, and the data
types we want to serialize have their own headers.

cb5052d98f Revert "Revert "Use template structs instead of phantoms""
This is the more typically way to do [Argument-dependent
lookup](https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/adl)-leveraging
generic serializers in C++. It makes the relationship between the `read`
and `write` methods more clear and rigorous, and also looks more
familiar to users coming from other languages that do not have C++'s
libertine ad-hoc overloading.

I am returning to this because during the review in
https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/6223, it came up as something that
would make the code easier to read --- easier today hopefully already,
but definitely easier if we were have multiple codified protocols with
code sharing between them as that PR seeks to accomplish.

If I recall correctly, the main criticism of this the first time around
(in 2020) was that having to specify the type when writing, e.g.
`WorkerProto<MyType>::write`, was too verbose and cumbersome. This is
now addressed with the `workerProtoWrite` wrapper function.

This method is also the way `nlohmann::json`, which we have used for a
number of years now, does its serializers, for what its worth.

This reverts commit 45a0ed82f0. That
commit in turn reverted 9ab07e99f5.

c51d554c93 Use "raw pattern" for content address types
We weren't because this ancient PR predated it!

This is actually a new version of the pattern which addresses some
issues identified in #7479.

ee9eb83a84 Remove some designated initializers
With the switch to C++20, the rules became more strict, and we can no
longer initialize base classes. Make them comments instead.

(BTW
https://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2021/p2287r1.html
this offers some new syntax for this use-case. Hopefully this will be
adopted and we can eventually use it.)

We don't need it yet, we can add it back later.

b3d91239ae Make ValidPathInfo have plain StorePathSet references like before

a416476217 Move ValidPathInfo defintions to path-info.cc
Originally there was no `path-info.*`, then there was `path-info.hh`,
then there was `path-info.cc`, but only for new things. Moving this
stuff over makes everything consistent.

2e7be46e73 Move new ValidPathInfo methods to path-info.cc
We'll move the old ones separately, so as not to clutter the diff.

fe1f34fa60 Low-latency closure copy
This adds a new store operation 'addMultipleToStore' that reads a
number of NARs and ValidPathInfos from a Source, allowing any number
of store paths to be copied in a single call. This is much faster on
high-latency links when copying a lot of small files, like .drv
closures.

For example, on a connection with an 50 ms delay:

Before:

  $ nix copy --to 'unix:///tmp/proxy-socket?root=/tmp/dest-chroot' \
    /nix/store/90jjw94xiyg5drj70whm9yll6xjj0ca9-hello-2.10.drv \
    --derivation --no-check-sigs
  real    0m57.868s
  user    0m0.103s
  sys     0m0.056s

After:

  real    0m0.690s
  user    0m0.017s
  sys     0m0.011s
