2024-03-09libexpr: Support structured error classeseldritch horrors
While preparing PRs like #9753, I've had to change error messages in dozens of code paths. It would be nice if instead of EvalError("expected 'boolean' but found '%1%'", showType(v)) we could write TypeError(v, "boolean") or similar. Then, changing the error message could be a mechanical refactor with the compiler pointing out places the constructor needs to be changed, rather than the error-prone process of grepping through the codebase. Structured errors would also help prevent the "same" error from having multiple slightly different messages, and could be a first step towards error codes / an error index. This PR reworks the exception infrastructure in `libexpr` to support exception types with different constructor signatures than `BaseError`. Actually refactoring the exceptions to use structured data will come in a future PR (this one is big enough already, as it has to touch every exception in `libexpr`). The core design is in `eval-error.hh`. Generally, errors like this: state.error("'%s' is not a string", getAttrPathStr()) .debugThrow<TypeError>() are transformed like this: state.error<TypeError>("'%s' is not a string", getAttrPathStr()) .debugThrow() The type annotation has moved from `ErrorBuilder::debugThrow` to `EvalState::error`.

2024-03-09Merge pull request #9754 from 9999years/print-value-when-coercion-failseldritch horrors
Print the value in `error: cannot coerce` messages (cherry picked from commit 5b7bfd2d6b89d7dd5f54c1ca6c8072358d31a84e) === test taken from 6e8d5983143ae576e3f4b1d2954a5267f2943a49; it was added previously (and not backported because its pr was a mostly-revert), but it's useful to have around.

2023-12-01Move tests to separate directories, and documentJohn Ericson
Today, with the tests inside a `tests` intermingled with the corresponding library's source code, we have a few problems: - We have to be careful that wildcards don't end up with tests being built as part of Nix proper, or test headers being installed as part of Nix proper. - Tests in libraries but not executables is not right: - It means each executable runs the previous unit tests again, because it needs the libraries. - It doesn't work right on Windows, which doesn't want you to load a DLL just for the side global variable . It could be made to work with the dlopen equivalent, but that's gross! This reorg solves these problems. There is a remaining problem which is that sibbling headers (like `hash.hh` the test header vs `hash.hh` the main `libnixutil` header) end up shadowing each other. This PR doesn't solve that. That is left as future work for a future PR.
