This re-enables support for older bwdgc versions without complicating
the code too much.
Coroutines generally only interfere with GC during source filtering,
so it's not too bad of a regression on older bdwgc.
This seems preferable over conditional compilation to enable the patch
etc; we've already spent a lot of complexity budget on this GC-coroutine
interaction...
Manually tested by printing to stderr in both branches (sp in os
stack, or not), and triggering a GC in a filterSource function,
e.g.:
let
generateTree = n: if n == 0 then "ha" else { left = generateTree (n - 1); right = generateTree (n - 1); };
in
builtins.deepSeq (generateTree 18) ...
Note that the darwin still uses the strategy of disabling GC, despite
having an implementation that compiles. The proper solution will be
enabled and tested later.
... 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.
* docs: mention importNative/exec in allow-unsafe-native-code-during-evaluation
Both of these still needs their own actual documentation, but they are
at least now mentioned that they exist and what they're enabled by.

In addition:
- Take the opportunity to add a bunch more missing hyperlinks, too.
- Remove some glossary entries that are now subsumed by dedicated pages.
We used to not be able to do this without breaking link fragments, but
now we can, so pick up where we left off.

Subflakes are flakes in the same tree, accessed in flake inputs via
relative paths (e.g. `inputs.foo.url = "path:./subdir"`). Previously
these didn't work very well because they would be separately copied to
the store, which is inefficient and makes references to parent
directories tricky or impossible. Furthermore, they had their own NAR
hash in the lock file, which is superfluous since the parent is
already locked.
Now subflakes are accessed via the accessor of the calling flake. This
avoids the unnecessary copy and makes it possible for subflakes to
depend on flakes in a parent directory (so long as they're in the same
tree).
Lock file nodes for relative flake inputs now have a new `parent` field:
{
"locked": {
"path": "./subdir",
"type": "path"
},
"original": {
"path": "./subdir",
"type": "path"
},
"parent": [
"foo",
"bar"
]
}
which denotes that `./subdir` is to be interpreted relative to the
directory of the `bar` input of the `foo` input of the root flake.
Extracted from the lazy-trees branch.
* Document string context
Now what we have enough primops, we can document how string contexts
work.

builtins.strictDerivation returns an attribute set with drvPath and
output paths. For some reason, current implementation forbids drv
instead of drvPath.
This was changed in #10611, which caused the derivation paths of
anything using builtin:fetchurl to change (i.e. all of
Nixpkgs). However, impureEnvVars doesn't actually do anything for
builtin:fetchurl, so we can just set it to its historical value.
Different parts of the project honor different sets of proxy environment
variables. With this commit all parts of the project will honor the same
set of proxy environment variables.

After the removal of the InputAccessor::fetchToStore() method, the
only remaining functionality in InputAccessor was `fingerprint` and
`getLastModified()`, and there is no reason to keep those in a
separate class.
This missing GC root wasn't much of a problem before, because the
heap would end up with a reference to the `baseEnv` pretty soon,
but when unit testing, the construction of `EvalState` doesn't
necessarily happen well before GC runs for the first time.
Found while unit testing the Rust bindings that currently reside
at https://github.com/nixops4/nixops4/tree/main/rust
Add a method to check if a value has been initialized. This helps avoid
segfaults when calling `type()`.
Useful in the context of the new C API.
Closes#10524
At this point many features are stripped out, but this works:
- Can run libnix{util,store,expr} unit tests
- Can run some Nix commands

Code operating on store objects (including creating them) should, in
general, use `ContentAddressMethod` rather than `FileIngestionMethod`.
