In particular, this means that 'nix eval` (which uses toValue()) no
longer auto-calls functions or functors (because
AttrCursor::findAlongAttrPath() doesn't).
Fixes #6152.
Also use ref<> in a few places, and don't return attrpaths from
getCursor() because cursors already have a getAttrPath() method.

The signature was also changed so the function now accepts a vector
instead of an iterator
|

|

It's now disabled by default for the following:
* 'nix search' (this was already implied by read-only mode)
* 'nix flake show'
* 'nix flake check', but only on the hydraJobs output
|
|
This makes nix search always go through the first level of an
attribute set, even if it's not a top level attribute. For instance,
you can now list all GHC compilers with:
$ nix search nixpkgs#haskell.compiler
...
This is similar to how nix-env works when you pass in -A.

|
This was useful for an experiment with building Nix as a single
compilation unit. It's not very useful otherwise but also doesn't
hurt...
|
|
Better to get creative than just sprinkle arbitrary underscores.

The initial contents of the flake is specified by the
'templates.<name>' or 'defaultTemplate' output of another flake. E.g.
outputs = { self }: {
templates = {
nixos-container = {
path = ./nixos-container;
description = "An example of a NixOS container";
};
};
};
allows
$ nix flake init -t templates#nixos-container
Also add a command 'nix flake new', which is identical to 'nix flake
init' except that it initializes a specified directory rather than the
current directory.

- result list will be always empty if --json is passed
- for scripts an empty search result is not really an error,
we rather want to distinguish between evaluation errors and empty results

It uses the evaluation cache now rather than the ad hoc JSON cache.

As proposed in #1634 the `nix search` command could use some
improvements. Initially 0413aeb35d6ee869a98b6565781c1cf47dc80080 added
some basic sorting behavior using `std::map`, a next step would be an
improvement of the output.
This patch includes the following changes:
* Use `$PAGER` for outputs with `RunPager` from `shared.hh`:
The same behavior is defined for `nix-env --query`, furthermore it
makes searching huge results way easier.
* Simplified result blocks:
The new output is heavily inspired by the output from `nox`, the first
line shows the attribute path and the derivaiton name
(`attribute path (derivation name)`) and the description in the second
line.

The common use case is to search for packages containing multiple words
like a "git" "frontend". Having only one expressions makes this simple regular
use case very complicated. Instead, search accepts multiple regular epressions
which all need to match.
nix search git 'gui|frontend'
returns a list of all git uis for example

nix search: tests and fix #1893 and part of #1892
|
|
This is important since this is given as an example.
Other patterns containing "empty search string" will still
be handled differently on different platforms ("asdf|")
but that's less of an issue.
|
|
This is exposed by the tests added previously,
and resolves the error reported in #1892:
"expected JSON value".

Also, random cleanup to argument handling.

The package list is now cached in
~/.cache/nix/package-search.json. This gives a substantial speedup to
"nix search" queries. For example (on an SSD):
First run: (no package search cache, cold page cache)
$ time nix search blender
Attribute name: nixpkgs.blender
Package name: blender
Version: 2.78c
Description: 3D Creation/Animation/Publishing System
real 0m6.516s
Second run: (package search cache populated)
$ time nix search blender
Attribute name: nixpkgs.blender
Package name: blender
Version: 2.78c
Description: 3D Creation/Animation/Publishing System
real 0m0.143s

$NIX_PATH may contain elements that don't evaluate to an attrset (like
"nixos-config"), so ignore those.
