eldritch horrors ccdd916226 libstore: de-ref {Derived,Built}Path::Built drvPath
they're no longer recursive, so this is perfectly fine.

eldritch horrors 5f723e96e6 libstore: flatten {,Single}{Built,Derived}Path
only dynamic derivations could produce a non-opaque drvPath. since
dynamic derivations are no longer supported we can have drvPath be
opaque at all times, simplifying downstream code significantly and
making quite a few methods unnecessary. discardOutputPath was only
called on drvPath members anyway and thus reduces to a copy, other
operations at the very least are no longer recursive. some vestige
of dynamic derivations remains in DerivedPathMap though (for now).

eldritch horrors 6bd6a2416b libexpr: turn debug frames into exprs
this way we don't have to even check whether we need a debug frame when
the debugger isn't enabled. not doing this gives us an eval performance
improvement of roughly 7% on nixos system eval and 2% for `nix search`.

skyrelia ba1c9d52ec Clean up includes
This cleans up includes that clangd reports as unused, usually by deleting the offending include. The process was to delete an include and see if it still builds. If not, try to find a more specific include(s) that works, that was previously transitively included. If the original include seems intended to re-export said transitive include, mark the transitive include as `// IWYU pragma: export`. Otherwise, replace the original include with the transitive include(s). If none of the above applies, because the original file depends on code directly in the include somehow, or the direct include is an external dependency that cannot be modified, restore the original include and mark it as `// IWYU pragma: keep`.

Maximilian Bosch 079fe0ca50 libexpr: improve error reporting if NIX_PATH item cannot be downloaded
Last week I was hunting a production issue at work related to CppNix and
the only hint I had was this warning. While the cause was clearly a
CppNix issue since it was related to the libgit2-backed tarball cache,
the fact that this exception was hidden, made it way harder to discover
this. It would've saved me a lot of time[1] if the error was just
printed out (and thus would've ended up in the logs).

This is what this patch results in:

  $ nix-instantiate -I https://notexisting.com --find-file . --option connect-timeout 1
  warning: error: unable to download 'https://notexisting.com': Resolving timed out after 1001 milliseconds (curl error code=28); retrying in 265 ms
  warning: error: unable to download 'https://notexisting.com/': Connection timed out after 1002 milliseconds (curl error code=28); retrying in 523 ms
  warning: error: unable to download 'https://notexisting.com/': Connection timed out after 1001 milliseconds (curl error code=28); retrying in 1324 ms
  warning: error: unable to download 'https://notexisting.com/': Connection timed out after 1000 milliseconds (curl error code=28); retrying in 2670 ms
  warning:

         warning: unable to download 'https://notexisting.com/': Connection timed out after 1001 milliseconds (curl error code=28)
  /path/to/nix/path/root

The `unable to download` part was hidden before. Granted, this is not the most
interesting showcase given the retries before, but I'd still argue that
this is useful for cases where you don't have a connection timeout (and
this was just the most trivial way to test for me).

[1] Unlucky as I was, I had to mount an older backup and nixos-enter
    into the mount to reproduce this.

Alois Wohlschlager 9d99a7c2cf libexpr: fix checkSourcePath purity regression
Starting with commit 0dbfa7b26e access would also
be allowed to ancestors of allowed paths. This is (ironically) a significant
purity regression, since several users of the purity checks will themselves
assume that arbitrary descent is allowed. For example, `builtins.readDir` and
`builtins.path` could now refer to the filesystem root, breaking purity
entirely in the latter case by allowing to read arbitrary files. Restore the
previous behaviour of only allowing access to explicitly allowed paths.

safely be assumed that the directory itself is allowed, and its contents
will likewise be safe to access. it is tempting to assumed that contents
will also be fine, but that's only true if the content is not a symlink.
