The `showBytes()` function was redundant with `renderSize()` as the
latter automatically selects the appropriate unit (KiB, MiB, GiB, etc.)
based on the value, whereas `showBytes()` always formatted as MiB
regardless of size.

This reverts commit 90d1ff4805.
The initial issue with EPIPE was solved in 9f680874c5.
Now this patch does move bad than good by eating up boost::io::format_error that are
bugs.
(cherry picked from commit 4f5af471fb)
* 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.

This change fixes a potential concurrency failure when accessing random
which is not thread safe.

For example, instead of doing
#include "nix/store-config.hh"
#include "nix/derived-path.hh"
Now do
#include "nix/store/config.hh"
#include "nix/store/derived-path.hh"
This was originally planned in the issue, and also recent requested by
Eelco.
Most of the change is purely mechanical. There is just one small
additional issue. See how, in the example above, we took this
opportunity to also turn `<comp>-config.hh` into `<comp>/config.hh`.
Well, there was already a `nix/util/config.{cc,hh}`. Even though there
is not a public configuration header for libutil (which also would be
called `nix/util/config.{cc,hh}`) that's still confusing, To avoid any
such confusion, we renamed that to `nix/util/configuration.{cc,hh}`.
Finally, note that the libflake headers already did this, so we didn't
need to do anything to them. We wouldn't want to mistakenly get
`nix/flake/flake/flake.hh`!
Progress on #7876
There are two big changes:
1. Public and private config is now separated. Configuration variables
that are only used internally do not go in a header which is
installed.
(Additionally, libutil has a unix-specific private config header,
which should only be used in unix-specific code. This keeps things a
bit more organized, in a purely private implementation-internal way.)
2. Secondly, there is no more `-include`. There are very few config
items that need to be publically exposed, so now it is feasible to
just make the headers that need them just including the (public)
configuration header.
And there are also a few more small cleanups on top of those:
- The configuration files have better names.
- The few CPP variables that remain exposed in the public headers are
now also renamed to always start with `NIX_`. This ensures they should
not conflict with variables defined elsewhere.
- We now always use `#if` and not `#ifdef`/`#ifndef` for our
configuration variables, which helps avoid bugs by requiring that
variables must be defined in all cases.
The short answer for why we need to do this is so we can consistently do
`#include "nix/..."`. Without this change, there are ways to still make
that work, but they are hacky, and they have downsides such as making it
harder to make sure headers from the wrong Nix library (e..g.
`libnixexpr` headers in `libnixutil`) aren't being used.
The C API alraedy used `nix_api_*`, so its headers are *not* put in
subdirectories accordingly.
Progress on #7876
We resisted doing this for a while because it would be annoying to not
have the header source file pairs close by / easy to change file
path/name from one to the other. But I am ameliorating that with
symlinks in the next commit.
At this point many features are stripped out, but this works:
- Can run libnix{util,store,expr} unit tests
- Can run some Nix commands

It's a little weird we don't check the return status for these, but
changing that would introduce risk so I did not.

While preparing PRs like #9753, I've had to change error messages in
dozens of code paths. It would be nice if instead of
EvalError("expected 'boolean' but found '%1%'", showType(v))
we could write
TypeError(v, "boolean")
or similar. Then, changing the error message could be a mechanical
refactor with the compiler pointing out places the constructor needs to
be changed, rather than the error-prone process of grepping through the
codebase. Structured errors would also help prevent the "same" error
from having multiple slightly different messages, and could be a first
step towards error codes / an error index.
This PR reworks the exception infrastructure in `libexpr` to
support exception types with different constructor signatures than
`BaseError`. Actually refactoring the exceptions to use structured data
will come in a future PR (this one is big enough already, as it has to
touch every exception in `libexpr`).
The core design is in `eval-error.hh`. Generally, errors like this:
state.error("'%s' is not a string", getAttrPathStr())
.debugThrow<TypeError>()
are transformed like this:
state.error<TypeError>("'%s' is not a string", getAttrPathStr())
.debugThrow()
The type annotation has moved from `ErrorBuilder::debugThrow` to
`EvalState::error`.
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`
libutil is a dependency of libstore, so it should always be
initialized as such.
libutil is also a dependency of libmain. Being explicit about this
dependency might be good, but not worth the slight code complexity
until the library structure gets more advanced.

Why not initLibExpr()? initGC() is essentially that, but
detectStackOverflow is not an instance of the init function concept, as
it may have to be invoked more than once per process.
Furthermore, renaming initGC to initLibExpr is more trouble than it's
worth at this time.
This code is bad. We shouldn't unset variables in programs whose
children may need them. Fixing one issue at a time, so postponing.

Using libstore without loading the config file is risky, as sqlite
may then be misconfigured. See https://github.com/cachix/cachix/issues/475
Presently when nix says something like:
```
these 486 paths will be fetched (511.54 MiB download, 6458.64 MiB unpacked):
...path1
...path2
...path3
...
...
...path486
```
It sorts path1, path2, path3, ..., path486 in lexicographic order of the
store path.
After this commit, nix will show path1, path2, path3, ..., path486 sorted by
StorePath name() (basically everything after the hash) rather than the store path.
This makes it easier to review what exactly is being downloaded at a glance,
especially when many paths need to be fetched.
