It was introduced back in 2013, was disabled in 2014 again for dubious
reasons and according to horrors is unsound anyways and can never really
work.
It was the only disabled test, so I removed the "infrastructure" for
that in the test runner as well. functional2/lang will have much better
ways for skipping tests anyways

Back in the days, this used to be the modus operandi, but then, still
many but less years ago, Eelco came along and changed it to passing in
the actual file. Of course, no motivation was provided, and it was only
done on half of the test runners for some reason, leaving us to wonder
what the true intentions of this code are …
Anyways, with this commit now everything standardises on passing in the
file by path instead of via stdin. Motivation:
- We need to `sed` out the path anyways for various other reasons,
including import tests and path value tests
- Given that, the presumed primary motivation for using stdin in the
first place becomes moot
- Bonus points for giving better error messages, especially in tests
that involve multiple input files

Currently, all tests are relative to `./tests/functional` instead of
`./tests/functional/lang`. Whether this is a historical artefact or as
intended, the current move is to align the tests with the new design of
functional2, preparing them for an easier migration.

The code for serialization Expr nodes back into (pseudo-)Nix has been
removed for being subtly error-prone and tedious to maintain. Instead,
`nix-instantiate --parse` now prints a JSON representation of the AST.
Usage patterns of the --parse flag I've found in the wild:
1. Check if a file is well-formed, i.e. discard output and test exit code
2. Get parser errors from a file, i.e. discard stdout and use stderr
3. Nixfmt uses --parse to test equivalence pre/post format, and that property is (should be?) preserved
None of these should break with the current change
Closes#487

The big ones here are `trim-trailing-whitespace` and `end-of-file-fixer`
(which makes sure that every file ends with exactly one newline
character).

* Fix boost::bad_format_string exception in builtins.addErrorContext
The message passed to addTrace was incorrectly being used as a format
string and this this would cause an exception when the string contained
a '%', which can be hit in places where arbitrary file paths are
interpolated.
* add test

I think it is bad for these reasons when `tests/` contains a mix of
functional and integration tests
- Concepts is harder to understand, the documentation makes a good
unit vs functional vs integration distinction, but when the
integration tests are just two subdirs within `tests/` this is not
clear.
- Source filtering in the `flake.nix` is more complex. We need to
filter out some of the dirs from `tests/`, rather than simply pick
the dirs we want and take all of them. This is a good sign the
structure of what we are trying to do is not matching the structure
of the files.
With this change we have a clean:
```shell-session
$ git show 'HEAD:tests'
tree HEAD:tests
functional/
installer/
nixos/
```
