Allows checking directory entry type of a single file/directory.
This was added to optimize the use of `builtins.readDir` on some
filesystems and operating systems which cannot detect this information
using POSIX's `readdir`.
Previously `builtins.readDir` would eagerly use system calls to lookup
these filetypes using other interfaces; this change makes these
operations lazy in the attribute values for each file with application
of `builtins.readFileType`.

Fixes the installation issue with the latest Nix.
Also revert the pinning to nix-2.13 since it's not needed any more.

When encountering a build error, Nix moves the output paths out of the
chroot into their final location (for “easier debugging of build
failures”). However this was broken for chroot stores as it was moving
it to the _logical_ location, not the _physical_ one.
Fix it by moving to the physical (_real_) location.

Fixes#3898
The entire `BinaryCaches` row used to get replaced after it became
stale according to the `timestamp` column. In a concurrent scenario,
this leads to foreign key conflicts as different instances of the
in-process `state.caches` cache now differ, with the consequence that
the older process still tries to use the `id` number of the old record.
Furthermore, this phenomenon appears to have caused the cache for
actual narinfos to be erased about every week, while the default
ttl for narinfos was supposed to be 30 days.

This is slightly more accurate considering that an outdated record
may exist in the persistent cache. Possibly-outdated records are
quite relevant as they may be foreign keys to more recent information
that we want to keep, but we will not return them here.

Since #7478 it's mandatory that `initLibStore()` is called for store
operations. However that's not the case when running `openStore()` in
Perl using the perl-bindings. That breaks e.g. `hydra-eval-jobset` when
built against Nix 2.13 which uses small portions of the store API.

It is just the new CLI that gets the `^` syntax. The old CLI already has
a (slightly different) `!` syntax.
Fixes#7682

It is still necessary.
Please do your research, or f ask the author, which happens to be me.
An evaluator like this is not an environment where "it compiles, so
it works" will ever hold.
This reverts commit 1c40182b12.
(cherry picked from commit 0664ba0a67)
The issue *seems* to be the cross jobs, which are missing the `CXXFLAGS`
needed to get rapidcheck.
PR #6538 would be really nice to resurrect which will prevent the
`configureFlags` from going out of sync between the regular build and
the cross build again.
