I haven't managed to trigger the error, and it turns out that this
method is optional.
Specifically, getSubmodules is unimplemented (and unimplementable),
the tests pass, and we seem to have good location info.
This doesn't change uniq. Why not?
- In NixOS it seems that uniq is only used with
simple types that are fully checked by t.check.
- It exists for much longer and is used more widely.
- I believe we should deprecate it, because unique was
already better.
- unique can be a proving ground.
Type: either ints.positive (enum ["auto"])
Before: positive integer, meaning >0 or value "auto" (singular enum)
After: positive integer, meaning >0, or value "auto" (singular enum)
This type is necessary to have correct merging behavior for
`allowUnfreePredicate` and `allowInsecurePredicate`

This reverts commit c59c6b1c57.
This was a bit too ambitious, because no warnings were previously
triggered when `string` was nested e.g. `attrsOf string`, `nullOr
string`, etc.
Support for nested type deprecation warnings was introduced in
4b54aedee5, but had to be reverted in
a36e6760e9 because it caused infinite
recursion for some users, and I couldn't remember that it was reverted.
The type has given a warning on use since [4 years ago](03392cd336b128a1639c648baf0f6c1a1271e0d2), I think it's safe to move the deprecation to the next stage: An error instead of a warning.
The motivation is to have a single identifier for that. Useful for the
next commit where I'll try to escape option-parts correctly (options can
be any kind of strings, but unless these are Nix identifiers, they must
be quoted).
Since `<function body>` (or `<name>`/`*`) are special identifiers in
error messages and the manual, we need a unique way to mark an option
part as function call because these are not to be quoted.
More nixpkgs code such as `boot.initrd.systemd.emergencyAccess` defines
options that takes hashed passwords, so move the type definition from
modules/ into lib/.
The type definition itself stays unchanged.
