Qyriad 06e65e537b build: expose option to enable or disable precompiled std headers
They are enabled by default, and Meson will also prints whether or not
they're enabled at the bottom at the end of configuration.

Qyriad e54d4c9381 build: fix static linking with a hack
This causes libstore, libexpr, libfetchers, and libutil to be linked
with -Wl,--whole-archive to executables, when building statically.

libstore for the store backends, libexpr for the primops, libfetchers
for the fetcher backends I assume(?), and libutil for the nix::logger
initializer (which notably shows in pre-main constructors when HOME is
not owned by the user. cursed.).

This workaround should be removed when #359 is fixed.

Fixes #306.

Jade Lovelace 0f99ed43f1 build-time: remove 20% more by PCH'ing C++ stdlib
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.

Alois Wohlschlager f047e4357b libstore/build: always enable seccomp filtering and no-new-privileges
Seccomp filtering and the no-new-privileges functionality improve the security
of the sandbox, and have been enabled by default for a long time. In
https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/issues/265 it was decided that they
should be enabled unconditionally. Accordingly, remove the allow-new-privileges
(which had weird behavior anyway) and filter-syscall settings, and force the
security features on. Syscall filtering can still be enabled at build time to
support building on architectures libseccomp doesn't support.

Jade LovelaceandQyriad c97e17144e packaging: rename nixexpr -> lixexpr and so on
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
```

Artemis TosiniandArtemis Tosini c03de0df62 gc: Find roots using libproc on Darwin
Previously, the garbage collector found runtime roots on Darwin by
shelling out to `lsof -n -w -F n` then parsing the result.
However, this requires an lsof binary and can be extremely slow.

The official Apple lsof returns in a reasonable amount of time,
about 250ms in my tests, but the lsof packaged in nixpkgs is quite slow,
taking about 40 seconds to run the command.

Using libproc directly is about the same speed as Apple lsof,
and allows us to reënable several tests that were disabled on Darwin.

Artemis Tosini b247ef72dc libstore: Create platform LocalStore subclasses
This creates new subclasses of LocalStore for each OS to include
platform-specific functionality. Currently this just includes garbage
collector roots but it could be extended to sandboxing as well.

In order to make sure that the generic LocalStore is not accidentally
constructed, its constructor is protected. A Fallback is provided which
implements no functionality except constructors.

Qyriad 05e3b1d39e meson: fix cross compilation
This should fix cross compilation in the base case, but this is
difficult to test as cross compilation is broken in many different
places right now. This should bring Meson back up to cross parity with
the Make buildsystem though.

Qyriad 077f45ee38 meson: correctly set -DSANDBOX_SHELL if we have it
The statically embedded busybox is not required for Lix to work, but
package.nix explicitly sets this, which was accidentally being ignored.

Qyriad 2a98fe28cb meson: correctly set NIX_CONF_DIR to $sysconfdir/nix
Instead of $sysconfdir.

Fixes #231, but there's more to do in following commits to make
Meson-built Lix actually look in /etc/nix.

eldritch horrors 1da1f501fc meson: fix state-dir default value
the autoconf build system defaults to /nix/var, not /nix/var/nix. the
latter is only used in libstore, so we'll move the extra segment there.

Winter 6646b80396 meson: add missing explicit dependency on nlohmann_json
Without this, the Meson setup won't bail out if nlohmann_json is
missing, leading to subpar DX (and maybe worse, but I'm not entirely
sure).

one headers (args/root.hh) was simply missing, and the generated headers
were not installed. not all of them *should* be installed either, only a
select few (and sadly this needs a custom target for each one, it seems)

Qyriad b4d07656ff build: optionally build and install with meson
This commit adds several meson.build, which successfully build and
install Lix executables, libraries, and headers. Meson does not yet
build docs, Perl bindings, or run tests, which will be added in
following commits. As such, this commit does not remove the existing
build system, or make it the default, and also as such, this commit has
several FIXMEs and TODOs as notes for what should be done before the
existing autoconf + make buildsystem can be removed and Meson made the
default. This commit does not modify any source files.

A Meson-enabled build is also added as a Hydra job, and to
`nix flake check`.
