This is because a dynamic_cast<nix::RootArgs *> of a (n-e-j) MyArgs
returns nullptr even though MyArgs has virtual nix::RootArgs as a
parent.
class MyArgs : virtual public nix::MixEvalArgs,
virtual public nix::MixCommonArgs,
virtual nix::RootArgs { ... };
So this should work right?? But it does not. We found out that it's
caused by -fvisibility=hidden in n-e-j, but honestly this code was bad
anyway.
The trivial solution is to simply stop relying on RTTI working properly
here, which is probably better OO architecture anyway. However, I am not
100% confident *this* is sound, since we have this horrible hierarchy:
Args (defines getRoot)
/ | \
RootArgs MixCommonArgs MixEvalArgs
(overrides)
I am not confident that this is guaranteed to resolve from Args always
in the case of this override.

It seems like someone implemented precompiled headers a long time ago
and then it never got ported to meson or maybe didn't work at all.
This is, however, blessedly easy to simply implement. I went looking for
`#define` that could affect the result of precompiling the headers, and
as far as I can tell we aren't doing any of that, so this should truly
just be free build time savings.
Previous state:
Compilation (551 times):
Parsing (frontend): 1302.1 s
Codegen & opts (backend): 956.3 s
New state:
**** Time summary:
Compilation (567 times):
Parsing (frontend): 1123.0 s
Codegen & opts (backend): 1078.1 s
I wonder if the "regression" in codegen time is just doing the PCH
operation a few times, because meson does it per-target.

Embarrassingly, I submitted a CL overriding submit requirements since
I thought it was spurious failures. However, the CI failure was in fact
real, and I have hopefully learned my lesson. The CI failure is that:

better revert that part of the change until we know we won't regress

This breaks downstreams linking to us on purpose to make sure that if
someone is linking to Lix they're doing it on purpose and crucially not
mixing up Nix and Lix versions in compatibility code.
We still need to fix the internal includes to follow the same schema so
we can drop the single-level include system entirely. However, this
requires a little more effort.
This adds pkg-config for libfetchers and config.h.
Migration path:
expr.hh -> lix/libexpr/expr.hh
nix/config.h -> lix/config.h
To apply this migration automatically, remove all `<nix/>` from
includes, so: `#include <nix/expr.hh>` -> `#include <expr.hh>`. Then,
the correct paths will be resolved from the tangled mess, and the
clang-tidy automated fix will work.
Then run the following for out of tree projects:
```
lix_root=$HOME/lix
(cd $lix_root/clang-tidy && nix develop -c 'meson setup build && ninja -C build')
run-clang-tidy -checks='-*,lix-fixincludes' -load=$lix_root/clang-tidy/build/liblix-clang-tidy.so -p build/ -fix src

Surely if you have unreleased changes you want them on a page right?
`officialRelease` means "this is a *release version*", which is a
reasonable case to not want it, but we are not that here.
I understand wanting to be able to turn it off for deps reasons or
something, but other than that, uhh, seems better to just turn it on

This doesn't comprehensively fix everything outdated in the manual, or
make the manual greatly better, but it does note down where at least
jade noticed it was wrong, and it does fix all the instances of
referencing Nix to conform to the style guide to the best of our
ability.
A lot of things have been commented out for being wrong, and there are
three types of FIXME introduced:
- FIXME(Lix): generically Lix needs to fix it
- FIXME(Qyriad): re https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/issues/215
- FIXME(meson): docs got outdated by meson changes and need rewriting

If unprivileged userns are *believed* to be disabled (such as with
"kernel.unprivileged_userns_clone = 0"), Lix would previously *give up*
on trying to use a user namespace before actually trying it, even if, in
cases such as unprivileged_userns_clone, it would actually be allowed
since Nix has CAP_SYS_ADMIN when running as daemon.
(see, e.g. https://github.com/archlinux/linux/commit/25d4709a4fc0e4f3b432c24b60dd508fb84f0cb2)
We changed it to actually try it first, and then diagnose possible
causes, and also to be more loud about the whole thing, using warnings
instead of debugs. These warnings will only print on the first build run
by the daemon, which is, tbh, eh, shrug.
This is what led to us realizing that no-userns was a poorly exercised
condition.

with:
/nix/store/26zdl4pyw5qazppj8if5lm8bjzxlc07l-coreutils-9.3/bin/id: cannot find name for group ID 30000
This was surprising because it seemed to mean that /etc/group was busted
in the sandbox. Indeed it was:
root:x:0:
nixbld:!💯
nogroup:x:65534:
We diagnosed this to sandboxUid() being called before
usingUserNamespace() was called, in setting up /etc/group inside the
sandbox. This code desperately needs refactoring.
We also moved the /etc/group code to be with the /etc/passwd code, but
honestly this code is all spaghetti'd all over the place and needs some
more serious tidying than we did here.
We also moved some checks to be earlier to improve locality with where
the things they are checking come from.

We found some header files that don't conform to the style guide.
The Lix style guide requests that header files:
- Begin with `#pragma once` so they only get parsed once
- Contain a doxygen comment (`/**` or `///`) containing `@file`, for
example, `///@file`, which will make doxygen generate docs for them.
When adding that, consider also adding a `@brief` with a sentence
explaining what the header is for.

I tried the meson clang-tidy target and it seems to fail to find flags
for several files, which seems broken. Unsure what is up with that, but
we can use run-clang-tidy or other tooling instead.
We have an extremely annoying situation with the lexer table, which
means that the lexer probably must be moved to another directory with
its own .clang-tidy file to disable the lints in it, *or* write scuffed
code that prepends a disable comment to the top of the generated file.
None of the comment-based lint disabling features work since yacc dumps
a bunch of non compliant code at the top of the file before anything the
user can control.
