Commit b36637c8f7 set
`__ETC_PROFILE_NIX_SOURCED` globally, but this is not enough to prevent
the script from being run again by child shells, because the
variable was not exported and thus not inherited by any child process.
Exporting the variable also agrees with the bash scripts.
Notably, the old behavior broke `nix develop -c fish` in some cases,
because the profile bin directory got prepended to the path, causing
binaries from the profile to override binareis from the devshell.

Prior patches in 54dc5314e8
and 6db6190002 fixed the default
system double for i686 and ppc/ppc64. This also patch also covers
32 bit arm and mips. ARM cpu names are taken from host_machine.cpu()
for a lack of a better option, but host_machine.cpu_family() is
preferred, since that is supposed to be somewhat standard for cross
files. Endianness is handled correctly by looking at host_machine.endian().
This also updates the documentation to be up to date to how system cpu
is translated from the host_machine specification.

I've missed this while reviewing 6db6190002.
I only built big endian ppc64, so that didn't occur to me.
From meson manual:
> Those porting from autotools should note that Meson does not add
> endianness to the name of the cpu_family. For example, autotools will
> call little endian PPC64 "ppc64le", Meson will not, you must also check
> the .endian() value of the machine for this information.
This code should handle that correctly.

CI on release branches should be stable, otherwise backporting
might become flaky and unreliable. Dogfooding only really makes
sense for CI on master branch, where failures are not as tedious
to work around.
* It is tough to contribute to a project that doesn't use a formatter,
* It is extra hard to contribute to a project which has configured the formatter, but ignores it for some files
* Code formatting makes it harder to hide obscure / weird bugs by accident or on purpose,
Let's rip the bandaid off?
Note that PRs currently in flight should be able to be merged relatively easily by applying `clang-format` to their tip prior to merge.

c39cc00404 has added assertions for
all Value accesses and the following case has started failing with
an `unreachable`:
(/tmp/fun.nix):
```nix
{a}: a
```
```
$ nix eval --impure --expr 'import /tmp/fun.nix {a="a";b="b";}'
```
This would crash:
```
terminating due to unexpected unrecoverable internal error: Unexpected condition in getStorage at ../include/nix/expr/value.hh:844
```
This is not a regression, but rather surfaces an existing problem, which previously
was left undiagnosed. In the case of an import `fun` is the `import` primOp, so that read is invalid
and previously this resulted in an access into an inactive union member, which is UB.
The correct thing to use is `vCur`. Identical problem also affected the case of a missing argument.
Add previously failing test cases to the functional/lang test suite.
Fixes#13448.

Previous use of symlink_status() always translated into a stat call, leading
to huge performance penalties for by-name-overlay in nixpkgs. The comment
below references the possible caching, but that seemed to be erroneous, since
the correct way to make use of the caching API is by calling a bunch of `is_*`
functions [1]. For example, here's how libstdc++ does that [2], [3].
This translates to great nixpkgs eval performance improvements:

Ensure relative path inputs are relative to the parent node's _actual_
`outPath`, instead of the subtly different `sourceInfo.outPath`.
Additionally, non-flake inputs now also have a `sourceInfo` attribute.
This fixes the relationship between `self.outPath` and
`self.sourceInfo.outPath` in some edge cases.
Fixes#13164
(cherry picked from commit 46beb9af76)
Seen in https://github.com/DeterminateSystems/nix-src/actions/runs/15590867877/job/43909540271:
nix-functional-tests> grep: repl_output: No such file or directory
nix-functional-tests> +(repl.sh:174) cat repl_output
This is because there is a small possibility that the `nix repl` child
process hasn't created `repl_output` yet. So make sure it exists.

libstore: ensure that temporary directory is always 0o000 before deletion
In the case the deletion fails, we should ensure that the temporary

libutil: ensure that `_deletePath` does NOT use absolute paths with dirfds
When calling `_deletePath` with a parent file descriptor, `openat` is
made effective by using relative paths to the directory file descriptor.
To avoid the problem, the signature is changed to resist misuse with an
assert in the prologue of the function.

libstore: ensure that `passAsFile` is created in the original temp dir
This ensures that `passAsFile` data is created inside the expected
temporary build directory by `openat()` from the parent directory file
descriptor.
This avoids a TOCTOU which is part of the attack chain of CVE-????.
