scripts/install-nix-from-closure: only show progress if a terminal is used
While the progress dots during the copying of the store work fine on a
normal terminal, those look pretty off if the script is run inside a
provisioning script of e.g. `vagrant` or `packer` where `stderr` and
`stdout` are captured:

    default: .
    default: ..
    default: .
    default: .
    default: .

To work around this, the script checks with `-t 0` if it's
running on an actual terminal and doesn't show the progress if that's not
the case.

addf9f4ede Call it aarch64-darwin instead of arm64-darwin
gnu-config standardized on aarch64 for machine name so host_cpu part
of $system will always be aarch64. That means system will be
aarch64-darwin too.

uname however could report either “aarch64” (if gnu coreutils) or
“arm64” (if apple’s uname). We should support both for compatiblity
here.

installer: simplify the per-build installation
The goal is to allow the installation and testing of arbitrary Nix
versions. Extend the base installer to accept a `--tarball-url-prefix
<url>` to change where the Nix tarball is getting downloaded from.

Once this is merged it should allow to:
1. Pick an evaluation at https://hydra.nixos.org/jobset/nix/master that
   looks healthy
2. Select the installedScript build and find the store path.

Now equipped with all of this, use an instance of nar-serve to fetch the
install script and release tarballs:

    curl -sfL https://nar-serve.numtide.com/nix/store/rkv4yh7pym941bhj0849zqdkg2546bdv-installer-script/install \
      | sh --tarball-url-prefix https://nar-serve.numtide.com/nix/store

Or with cachix, strip the /nix/store and derivation name and then:

    curl -sfL https://mycache.cachix.org/serve/rkv4yh7pym941bhj0849zqdkg2546bdv/install \
      | sh --tarball-url-prefix https://mycache.cachix.org/serve

1f02b65c59 fix xpath and conditional bugs; xpath -> xmllint
- xpath -> xmllint: xpath's cli interface changed in Big Sur
  rather than add conditional logic for picking the correct
  syntax for xpath, I'm changing to xmllint --xpath, which
  appears to be consistent across versions I've tested...

- /plist/dict/key[text()='Writable']/following-sibling::true[1]
  doesn't do quite what's expected. It was written to try to
  select a <true /> node paired with the Writable key, but it
  will also select the *next* <true /> node that appears even
  if it was paired with another key.

- I think there's also a logic bug in the conditionals here.
  I'm not sure anyone ever actuall saw it, thanks to the xpath
  bug, though. With the xpath fix, this conditional passes if /nix
  does not exist, / IS writable, and the version is Catalina+.

  I think it meant to test for /nix does not exist, / is NOT
  writable, and the version is Catalina+. I reworked this lightly
  to make it a little clearer at the code level.

+ no change needed; /nix OK on boot volume:
  All pre-Catalina (regardless of T2 or FileVault use)

+ create new unencrypted volume:
  Catalina, pre-T2, no FileVault

+ create new encrypted-at-rest volume:
  Catalina, pre-T2, FileVault
  Catalina, T2, no FileVault

- require user to pre-create encrypted volume

7313aa267b installer: Fix terminal colors.
The install-multi-user script uses blue, green, and red colors, as
well as bold and underline, to add helpful formatting that helps
structure its rather voluminous output.

Unfortunately, the terminal escape sequences it uses are not quite
well-formed.  The relevant information is all there, just obscured
by some extra noise, a leading parameter `38`.  Empirically, the
result is:

 * On macOS, in both Terminal.app and iTerm2, the spurious `38` is
   ignored, the rest of the escape sequence is applied, and the colors
   show up as intended.

 * On Linux, in at least gnome-terminal and xterm, the spurious `38`
   and the next parameter after it are ignored, and what's left is
   applied.  So in the sequence `38;4;32`, the 4 (underline) is
   ignored but the 32 (green) takes effect; in a more typical sequence
   like `38;34`, the 34 (blue) is ignored and nothing happens.

These codes are all unchanged since this script's origins as a
Darwin-only script -- so the fact that they work fine in common macOS
terminals goes some way to explain how the bug arose.

Happily, we can make the colors work as intended by just deleting the
extra `38;`.  Tested in all four terminals mentioned above; the new
codes work correctly on all of them, and on the two macOS terminals
they work exactly the same as before.

---

In a bit more technical detail -- perhaps more than anyone, me
included, ever wanted to know, but now that I've gone and learned it
I'll write it down anyway :) -- here's what's happening in these codes:

An ECMA-48 "control sequence" begins with `\033[` aka "CSI", contains
any number of parameters as semicolon-separated decimal numbers (plus
sometimes other wrinkles), and ends with a byte from 0x40..0x7e.  In
our case, with `m` aka "SGR", "Select Graphic Rendition".

An SGR control sequence `\033[...m` sets colors, fonts, text styles,
etc.  In particular a parameter `31` means red, `32` green, `34` blue,
`4` underline, and `0` means reset to normal.  Those are all we use.

There is also a `38`.  This is used for setting colors too... but it
needs arguments.  `38;5;nn` is color nn from a 256-color palette, and
`38;2;rr;gg;bb` has the given RGB values.

There is no meaning defined for `38;1` or `38;34` etc.  On seeing a
parameter `38` followed by an unrecognized argument for it, apparently
some implementations (as seen on macOS) discard only the `38` and
others (as seen on Linux) discard the argument too before resuming.

26851dd2c2 installer: Set files read-only when copying into store
After installing Nix, I found that all the files and directories
initially copied into the store were writable, with mode 644 or 755:

  drwxr-xr-x 9 root root 4096 Dec 31  1969 /nix/store/ddmmzn4ggz1f66lwxjy64n89864yj9w9-nix-2.3.3

The reason is that that's how they were in the unpacked tarball, and
the install-multi-user script used `rsync -p` without doing anything
else to affect the permissions.

The plain `install` script for a single-user install takes care to
do a `chmod -R a-w` on each store path copied.  We could do the same
here with one more command; or we can pass `--chmod` to rsync, to
have it write the files with the desired modes in the first place.

Tested the new `rsync` command on both a Linux machine with a
reasonably-modern rsync (3.1.3) and a Mac with its default, ancient,
rsync 2.6.9, and it works as expected on both.  Thankfully the latter
is just new enough to have `--chmod`, which dates to rsync 2.6.7.

a413594baf installer: Handle edge case where the nix-daemon is already running on the system
On a systemd-based Linux distribution: If the user has previously had multi-user Nix installed on the system, removed it and then reinstalled multi-user Nix again the old nix-daemon.service will still be running when `scripts/install-systemd-multi-user.sh` tries to start it which results in nothing being done and the old daemon continuing its run.

When a normal user then tries to use Nix through the daemon the nix binary will fail to connect to the nix-daemon as it does not belong to the currently installed Nix system. See below for steps to reproduce the issue that motivated this change.

d4e51aac08 Make preexisting Nix install a warning, not a failure
In the multi-user install script, we originally made sure no previous
references to Nix existed. This prevented any previous installs from
contaminating the new install. However, some users need the ability to
repair their existing Nix installation without uninstalling all
references to Nix. This change allows users with existing Nix
installations to use the installer, while still outputing a warning
message on the dangers of this. As a result, the multi-user install
script work much more like the single-user install script has worked
in the past.

This is a requirement for macOS Catalina users now that
/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.nixos.nix-daemon.plisg is not managed by
the Nix store. If there is ever a change to the .plist, all users will
need to rerun this install script to get the new changes. Otherwise,
changes to the launch daemon will require manual interventions.

Apparently 'tar -xf' can decompress xz files on macOS nowadays.

installer: handle network proxy in systemd install
If a network proxy configuration is detected, setup an override
systemd unit file for nix-daemon service with the non-empty
proxy variables.

Proxy detection is performed by looking for http/https/ftp proxy and no
proxy variables in user environment

0463d5e36f Allow empty /nix directory in multi-user installer
With macOS catalina, we can no longer modify the root system
volume (). macOS provides a system configuration file in
synthetic.conf(5) to create empty root directories. This can be used
to mount /nix to a separate volume. As a result, this directory will
need to already exist prior to installation. Instead, check for
/nix/store and /nix/var for a live Nix installation.

7c20ee448f Sync NIX_PROFILES between single-user and multi-user modes
When we are in single user mode, we still want to have access to
profiles. This way things in Nixpkgs that rely on them getting set
accurately are done in both cases. The point where I hit this is with
using aspell which looks in NIX_PROFILES:

https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/pkgs/development/libraries/aspell/default.nix

Before this patch, NIX_PROFILES was never set in single user mode!
This corrects that.

07d9981f34 install-multi-user: remove unneeded settings from nix.conf
Hardcoding the "max-jobs" and "cores" settings in nix.conf at install
time, to the same value as Nix' built-in default, makes little sense to
me.

dbe4c043d7 install-multi-user: reduce max-jobs from 32 to 1
Having max-jobs = 32 ($NIX_USER_COUNT is hardcoded to that value) may
severely overload the machine. The nix.conf(5) manual page says max-jobs
defaults to 1, so let's use that value.

NOTE: Both max-jobs and cores are now being set to their default value,
so they can be removed alltogether.

scripts: remove default 'sandbox = false' from multi-user installer
Sandboxing is now enabled by default on Linux, but is still disabled on
macOS. However, the installer always turned it off to ensure consistent
behavior.

Remove this default configuration, so we fall back to the default
platform-specific value.

b9567aa8b6 install script: don't abort when "nix-channel --update" fails
Instead, print a message about what happened and tell the user what can
be done (run "[sudo -i] nix-channel --update nixpkgs" again at a later
time). This change allows installing Nix when you're offline.

Since the multi-user installer is so verbose, the message isn't printed
until the end.

Fixes issue  ("installation without internet connection").

- @localstatedir@/nix/profiles/default/lib/kde4/libexec - same as above
- @localstatedir@/nix/profiles/default - shouldn't ever contain binaries
