It's hard to put the sourcing of ./.attrs.sh into all builder
consistently - mistakes will happen. Thus, load structured attrs once in
make-derivation and then source the remaining builder on top.
This should fix quite a few builders with structured attributes in
principle. Most importantly it helps substitute / substituteAll, which
are required for bootstrap on some platforms.
After final improvements to the official formatter implementation,
this commit now performs the first treewide reformat of Nix files using it.
This is part of the implementation of RFC 166.
Only "inactive" files are reformatted, meaning only files that
aren't being touched by any PR with activity in the past 2 months.
This is to avoid conflicts for PRs that might soon be merged.
Later we can do a full treewide reformat to get the rest,
which should not cause as many conflicts.
A CI check has already been running for some time to ensure that new and
already-formatted files are formatted, so the files being reformatted here
should also stay formatted.

Since nix 2.20, `nix-store --add-fixed` doesn't accept paths where the
parent directory is a symlink. On macOS, /tmp is a symlink to
/private/tmp, which causes a "'/tmp' is a symlink" error:
```

Avoid this by resolving /tmp to a real directory in all the prefetch scripts
When specifying the `builder` attribute in `stdenv.mkDerivation`, this
will be effectively transformed into
builtins.derivation {
builder = stdenv.shell;
args = [ "-e" builder ];
}
This also means that `default-builder.sh` is never sourced and as a
result it's not guaranteed that `$NIX_ATTRS_SH_FILE` is set to a correct
location[1].
Also, we need to source `.attrs.sh` to source `$stdenv`. So, the
following is done now:
* If `$NIX_ATTRS_SH_FILE` points to a correct location, then use it.
Directly using `.attrs.sh` is problematic for `nix-shell(1)` usage
(see previous commit for more context), so prefer the environment
variable if possible.
* Otherwise, if `.attrs.sh` exists, then use it. See [1] for when this
can happen.
* If neither applies, it can be assumed that `__structuredAttrs` is
turned off and thus nothing needs to be done.
[1] It's possible that it doesn't exist at all - in case of Nix 2.3 or
it can point to a wrong location on older Nix versions with a bug in
`__structuredAttrs`.
This is useful when running tools like NixOps or nix-review
on workstations where the upload to the builder is significantly
slower then downloading the source on the builder itself.
Deprecation warnings should not be used in Nixpkgs because they spam
innocent "nix-env -qa" users with (in this case) dozens of messages
that they can't do anything about.
This also reverts commit 2ca8833383.
Fixes a regression on OS X introduced by f83af95.
Don't use --tmpdir for mktemp, because that flag doesn't exist on OS X.
However, using -t is deprecated in GNU coreutils, so as suggested by
@ip1981 we're now using parameter expansion on ${TMPDIR:-/tmp} to
provide /tmp as a fallback if TMPDIR is not set and use it instead.
Also use this approach for nix-prefetch-cvs now in order to stay
consistent.

Instead of relying on $$ to not collide with an existing path.
Quoting the Bash manual about $$:
> Expands to the process ID of the shell. In a () subshell, it expands
> to the process ID of the current shell, not the subshell.
So, this is different from $BASHPID:
> Expands to the process ID of the current bash process. This differs
> from $$ under certain circumstances, such as subshells that do not
> require bash to be re-initialized.
But even $BASHPID is prone to race conditions if the process IDs wrap
around, so to be on the safe side, we're using mktemp here.
Closes#3784.
