Do you think this is the change needed?

Ouch, you wanted a different default.

Ever since SQLite in Nixpkgs was updated to 3.8.0.2, Nix has randomly
segfaulted on Darwin:

  http://hydra.nixos.org/build/6175515
  http://hydra.nixos.org/build/6611038

It turns out that this is because the binary cache substituter somehow
ends up loading two versions of SQLite: the one in Nixpkgs and the
other from /usr/lib/libsqlite3.dylib.  It's not exactly clear why the
latter is loaded, but it appears to be because WWW::Curl indirectly loads
/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreFoundation.framework/Versions/A/CoreFoundation,
which in turn seems to load /usr/lib/libsqlite3.dylib.  This leads to
a segfault when Perl exits:

  #0  0x00000001010375f4 in sqlite3_finalize ()
  #1  0x000000010125806e in sqlite_st_destroy ()
  #2  0x000000010124bc30 in XS_DBD__SQLite__st_DESTROY ()
  #3  0x00000001001c8155 in XS_DBI_dispatch ()
  ...
  #14 0x0000000100023224 in perl_destruct ()
  #15 0x0000000100000d6a in main ()
  ...

The workaround is to explicitly load DBD::SQLite before WWW::Curl.

This closes NixOS#3026 by allowing `builtins.readFile` to read a file with a
wrongly reported file size, for example, files in `/proc` may report a
file size of 0. Reading file in `/proc` is not a good enough motivation,
however I do think it just makes nix more robust by allowing more file
to be read.  Especially, I do considerer the previous behavior to be
dangerous because nix was previously reading truncated files. Examples
of file system which incorrectly report file size may be network file
system or dynamic file system (for performance reason, a dynamic file
system such as FUSE may generate the content of the file on demand).

```
nix-repl> builtins.readFile "/proc/version"
""
```

With this commit:

```
nix-repl> builtins.readFile "/proc/version"
"Linux version 5.6.7 (nixbld@localhost) (gcc version 9.3.0 (GCC)) NixOS#1-NixOS SMP Thu Apr 23 08:38:27 UTC 2020\n"
```

Here is a summary of the behavior changes:

- If the reported size is smaller, previous implementation
was silently returning a truncated file content. The new implementation
is returning the correct file content.

- If a file had a bigger reported file size, previous implementation was
failing with an exception, but the new implementation is returning the
correct file content. This change of behavior is coherent with this pull
request.

Open questions

- The behavior is unchanged for correctly reported file size, however
performances may vary because it uses the more complex sink interface.
Considering that sink is used a lot, I don't think this impacts the
performance a lot.
- `builtins.readFile` on an infinite file, such as `/dev/random` may
fill the memory.

this was caused by the use of std::chrono::duration::max() which gets
multiplied by some ratio to calculate nanoseconds to wait. then, it
explodes because that is a signed integer overflow. this was definitely
a bug.

This is because a dynamic_cast<nix::RootArgs *> of a (n-e-j) MyArgs
returns nullptr even though MyArgs has virtual nix::RootArgs as a
parent.

class MyArgs : virtual public nix::MixEvalArgs,
               virtual public nix::MixCommonArgs,
               virtual nix::RootArgs { ... };

So this should work right?? But it does not. We found out that it's
caused by -fvisibility=hidden in n-e-j, but honestly this code was bad
anyway.

The trivial solution is to simply stop relying on RTTI working properly
here, which is probably better OO architecture anyway. However, I am not
100% confident *this* is sound, since we have this horrible hierarchy:

      Args (defines getRoot)
     /        |           \
RootArgs  MixCommonArgs  MixEvalArgs
(overrides)

I am not confident that this is guaranteed to resolve from Args always
in the case of this override.

Assertion failed: (res), function getRoot, file src/libutil/args.cc, line 67.

}

We also found that if we did this:
class [[gnu::visibility("default")]] RootArgs : virtual public Args

it would work properly (???!). This is of course, very strange, because
objdump -Ct output on liblixexpr.dylib is identical both with and
without it.

So far only drainFD sets the non-blocking flag on a "readable" file descriptor,
while this is a "writeable" file descriptor.
It's not clear to me yet, why we see logs after that point, but it's
also not that bad to handle EAGAIN in read/write functions after all.

This is because it will use the stack pointer of the coroutine, so it
will scan a region of memory that doesn't exist, e.g.

  Stack for thread 0x7ffea4ff96c0 is [0x7ffe80197af0w,0x7ffea4ffa000)

(where 0x7ffe80197af0w is the sp of the coroutine and 0x7ffea4ffa000
is the base of the thread stack).

We don't scan coroutine stacks, because currently they don't have GC
roots (there is no evaluation happening in coroutines). So there is
currently no need to restore the other parts of the original patch,
such as BoehmGCStackAllocator.

This was removed in NixOS#11152. However,
we need it for the multi-threaded evaluator, because otherwise Boehm
GC will crash while scanning the thread stack:

… with newer nixpkgs

Firstly, this is now available on darwin where the default in llvm 19.
Secondly, this leads to very weird segfaults when building with newer nixpkgs for some reason.
(It's UB after all).

This appears when building with the following:

mesonComponentOverrides = finalAttrs: prevAttrs: {
mesonBuildType = "debugoptimized";
dontStrip = true;
doCheck = false;
separateDebugInfo = false;
preConfigure = (prevAttrs.preConfigure or "") + ''
  case "$mesonBuildType" in
  release|minsize|debugoptimized) appendToVar mesonFlags "-Db_lto=true"  ;;
  *)                              appendToVar mesonFlags "-Db_lto=false" ;;
  esac
'';
};

And with the following nixpkgs input:

nix build ".#nix-cli" -L --override-input nixpkgs "https://releases.nixos.org/nixos/unstable/nixos-25.11pre870157.7df7ff7d8e00/nixexprs.tar.xz"
