Fixes#838.
xattrs were historically disabled in 2017, since then, NFS v4.2 gained
support for xattrs and almost all filesystems support xattrs. In
addition, moving the build directory to a xattrs-supporting filesystem
is always an option. Programs may exploit xattrs (including ACLs) during
their build process and testing phase, to better serve these programs,
we will remove this limitation.
Lix will use POSIX ACLs for its UNIX domain sockets in the future and be
one of these programs which will run tests making use of xattrs, while
not writing any xattrs in the derivation outputs themselves.
xattrs are still scrubbed from derivation outputs so it is not possible
to obtain an advantage by writing a security-related xattr to a well
chosen file.
Tests were added to test these scenarios on Linux. Darwin is carefully
excluded because of #1008 and #1090, solving that is welcome. In the
meantime, they are marked xfail.

Currenlty one is required to always write the bulky `mark.parametrize`
with indirect and things
This commit adds a custom decorator for usage of files, which hides the
parametrization complexity from the user.

So far, the environment used by `command` was completely leaky and the
one used by `nix` was very leaky despite it trying to be a "hermetic"
environment.
This commit moves the hermaticity to `command` and changes its
implementation to be not leak anything.
To achieve this, the following changes were also nessecary:
- the `files` and `snapshot` fixture now use the folder `test-home`
within the tmp_path directory by default, as the `HOME` environment
variable is set to there. (extraction not possible due to dependencies
of command etc also using this directory)

Snix's nar-bridge[1] stores NARs under a different URL, i.e.
`nar/snix-castore/<hash>.nar` rather than `nar/<filehash>.nar`. Right
now, when copying into such a store via the http binary-cache, we'd end
up with wrong cache entries that point to the wrong NAR URL.
On Hydra, this is a fatal error, i.e. builds that depend on previously
built paths (that were written to the cache before by the queue runner)
would be aborted because of that.
This patch removes the caching since we'd have to re-fetch the narinfo
to do taht and this can also happen the next time, the narinfo is
queried. Also, removes the negative cache entry indicating that the
store-path doesn't exist in the store.
We don't have any coverage for http-stores so far, so I wrote a small
testcase for the "default" case and the nar-bridge case in functional2
since it has a very nice fixture for an HTTP server ready. I'm aware
that there's a CL for a nicer cache server[2], but given I'm down a
pretty deep rabbit hole by playing around with Snix, I decided to not
finish the CL and write something small for the tests in here. This can
be replaced by the fixtures from that CL later on as well.

Use logger in favor over print statment.
This is explicitly supported and encuraged by pytest, which also allows
for capturing logs separate from stdout calls, which is handy for when
e.g. lix code calls out to stdout to keep those differentiated from test
output

There is absolutely no good reason these should show up in NARs besides
misconfigured systems and as long as the case hack exists, unpacking
such a NAR will cause its repacking to be wrong on systems with case
hack enabled.
This should not have any security impact on Lix to fix, but it was one
of the vectors for CVE-2024-45593:

This also rewrites a lot of the command handling in the fixtures
library, since we want to more precisely control which way that the nix
store is set up in the tests, rather than the previous method of
renaming /nix/store to some temp dir (which allows builds but does not
allow any /nix/store paths or stability across runs, which is a
significant issue for snapshot testing).
It uses a builder to reduce the amount of state carelessly thrown
around.
The evil NARs are inspired by CVE-2024-45593
(https://github.com/NixOS/nix/security/advisories/GHSA-h4vv-h3jq-v493).
No bugs were found in this endeavor.
