On macOS, poll() is fundamentally broken for HUP detection. It loses event
subscriptions when EVFILT_READ fires without matching the requested events
in the pollfd. This causes daemon processes to linger after client disconnect.
This commit replaces poll() with kqueue on macOS, which is what poll()
uses internally but without the bugs. The kqueue implementation uses
EVFILT_READ which works for both sockets and pipes, avoiding EVFILT_SOCK
which only works for sockets.
On Linux and other platforms, we continue using poll() with the standard
POSIX behavior where POLLHUP is always reported regardless of requested events.

This would print erroneous and misleading diagnostics like:
> error (ignored): error: '--arg' and '--argstr' are incompatible with flakes
When run with --expr/--file. Since this installable is used to get the
bash package it doesn't make sense to check this.

This update contains d1266642a8722f2a05e311fa151c1413d2b9653c, which
is necessary for the TOML timestamps to get tested via nixpkgsLibTests job.
(cherry picked from commit 625477a7df)
This addresses several changes from toml11 4.0 bump in
nixpkgs [1].
1. Added more regression tests for timestamp formats.
Special attention needs to be paid to the precision
of the subsecond range for local-time. Prior versions select the closest
(upwards) multiple of 3 with a hard cap of 9 digits.
2. Normalize local datetime and offset datetime to always
use the uppercase separator `T`. This is actually the issue
surfaced in [2]. This canonicalization is basically a requirement
by (a certain reading) of rfc3339 section 5.6 [3].
3. If using toml11 >= 4.0 also keep the old behavior wrt
to the number of digits used for subsecond part of the local-time.
Newer versions cap it at 6 digits unconditionally.

(cherry picked from commit dc769d72cb)
Current test suite doesn't cover the subsecond formatting at
all and toml11 is quite finicky with that. We should at the very
least test its behavior to avoid silent breakages on updates.
(cherry picked from commit 7ed0229d1a)
Nixpkgs bump in the flake bumps clang-format, so we now have a diff
compared to what was used to format the codebase previously. We should
have made sure that the nixpkgs input is the same in the first place.
About time we upgraded our nixpkgs flake input. Ideally
we'd have automation to do this.
