This was done originally because std::smatch does not accept `const char
*` as iterators. However, this was because we should have been using
std::cmatch instead.
(cherry picked from commit 12a5838d11)
Found by looking for interesting asan reports from the test suite.
What happened here is that name got overwritten, but it was what
actually held the backing memory for the thing it got overwritten by,
which was a by-reference value coming out of std::regex.
Due to absurd reasons I cannot seem to use a string_view iterator here,
so I just copy the string with a longer lifetime instead. idk lol

(cherry-picked from b9b1bbd22f)
* manual: Contributing -> Development, Hacking -> Building
what's currently called "hacking" are really instructions for setting up
a development environment and compiling from source. we have
a contribution guide in the repo (which rightly focuses on GitHub
workflows), and the material in the manual is more about working
on the code itself.
since we'd otherwise have three headings that amount to "Building Nix",
this change also moves the "classic Nix" instructions to the top.
we may want to reorganise this in the future, and bring
contributor-oriented information closer to the code, but for now let's
stick to more accurate names to ease navigation.
Meson uses a venerable GNU convention described in
https://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/html_node/Scripts_002dbased-Testsuites.html
in which:
> When no test protocol is in use, an exit status of 0 from a test
> script will denote a success, an exit status of 77 a skipped test, an
> exit status of 99 a hard error, and any other exit status will denote
> a failure.
77 is thus what we want, not 99.
* fix NIX_PATH overriding
- test restricted evaluation
- test precedence for setting the search path

This is in accordance with ARM's naming convention.
"Low" is confusing, because it could refer to either the cold end
of the stack as an abstract data type, or a low address.
These are different places, because the stack grows down through
the address space.
In addition to adding the missing thread deps in the last commit, we
also appear to need to skip `-Wl,--as-needed` flags that Meson wants to
use, but doesn't work with our *BSD toolchains.
