Cleanup fmt.hh
When I started contributing to Nix, I found the mix of definitions and
names in `fmt.hh` to be rather confusing, especially the small
difference between `hintfmt` and `hintformat`. I've renamed many classes
and added documentation to most definitions.

- `formatHelper` is no longer exported.
- `fmt`'s documentation is now with `fmt` rather than (misleadingly)
  above `formatHelper`.
- `yellowtxt` is renamed to `Magenta`.

  `yellowtxt` wraps its value with `ANSI_WARNING`, but `ANSI_WARNING`
  has been equal to `ANSI_MAGENTA` for a long time. Now the name is
  updated.
- `normaltxt` is renamed to `Uncolored`.
- `hintfmt` has been merged into `hintformat` as extra constructor
  functions.
- `hintformat` has been renamed to `hintfmt`.
- The single-argument `hintformat(std::string)` constructor has been
  renamed to a static member `hintformat::interpolate` to avoid pitfalls
  with using user-generated strings as format strings.

4687beecef Get rid of CanonPath::fromCwd
As discussed in the last Nix team meeting (2024-02-95), this method
doesn't belong because `CanonPath` is a virtual/ideal absolute path
format, not used in file systems beyond the native OS format for which a
"current working directory" is defined.

Progress towards #9205

Fix #9859

It's a breaking change but that's fine; we can just update Hydra to use
the new bindings.

Pretty-print values in the REPL
Pretty-print values in the REPL by printing each item in a list or
attrset on a separate line. When possible, single-item lists and
attrsets are printed on one line, as long as they don't contain a nested
list, attrset, or thunk.

Before:
```
{ attrs = { a = { b = { c = { }; }; }; }; list = [ 1 ]; list' = [ 1 2 3 ]; }
```

After:
```
{
  attrs = {
    a = {
      b = {
        c = { };
      };
    };
  };
  list = [ 1 ];
  list' = [
    1
    2
    3
  ];
}
```

print-dev-env: Avoid using unbound shellHook variable
Some tools which consume the "nix print-dev-env" rc script (such as
"nix-direnv") are sensitive to the use of unbound variables. They use
"set -u".

The "nix print-dev-env" rc script initially unsets "shellHook", then
loads variables from the derivation, and then evaluates "shellHook".
However, most derivations don't have a "shellHook" attribute.

So users get the error "shellHook: unbound variable". This can be
demonstrated with the command:

    nix print-dev-env nixpkgs#hello | bash -u

This commit changes the rc script to provide an empty fallback value
for the "shellHook" variable.

Closes: #7951 #8253
