Can you not have references with addToStoreFromDump?

@matthewbauer I would say all those new {} are things that probably deserve auditing :)

This adds a
StorePathDescriptor, which is likeContentAddressbut additionally contains everything needed to create a store path. As such, it is like a combination of a name, aStorePath, and ValidPathInfo's "CA" and "References" fields, but without the other extraneous metadata fromValidPathInfo(such as timestamps or information that can be calculated from this).The motivation is multi-fold:
Be more cautious with references. When we just pass around
ContentAddress, is easier to forget about CA data with references. With the ca-derivations work, we hope those become commonplace, and we want to support them right.Have
StorePathDescriptoras an alternative toStorePathin internal interfaces. The idea is just a small step beyond Try to substitute builtins.fetch* #3721 and similar PRs, which have lots ofStorePath, std::optional<ContentAddress>in arguments, and instead dostd::variant<StorePath, StorePathDescriptor>.Eventually, do cross-store-dir substitutions of ca-references data, as when the store paths have the same length this should be possible.
Add a new variant to
StorePathDescriptor, corresponding to<drv-path>!<output-name>syntax, so we have a way to refer to the yet-unbuilt outputs of CA derivations.depends on #3746
