The BAT_SYNTAXES environment variable is injected during Nix builds
and points to the build result of //third_party/bat_syntaxes, which is
included in the cheddar binary.
During development this is a bit annoying: Opening a Nix shell will
set the right variable, but it will also mess with the Cargo
environment in ways that make it annoying to use (*and* require a
pre-build of all dependencies as required by naersk).
For an easier development flow, this adds a build script that
automatically runs Nix, fetches the path to the syntax set and sets
the environment variable. It is a no-op if the variable is already
set.
This makes for a smoother development experience when working on
cheddar in a depot checkout.

In preparation for the solution of b/108, we need to consistently use
`depot.third_party` for packages that are only packed in the TVL depot
and `pkgs` for things that come from nixpkgs.

This chops off "front matter", which we have - for example - in Tvix
documentation that is rendered through Pandoc.

Similar to the source code highlighting endpoint, but for Markdown.
This is to be used by the bug tracker, as well as Sourcegraph in the
future.

Sourcegraph uses a component called syntect_server to syntax-highlight
source files.
Since we already have custom syntaxes, overrides and configuration we
might as well use them with Sourcegraph!
This implements the syntect_server "protocol" (it's just a single
endpoint) so that we can swap out the syntect_server component with
cheddar.
Note: There's a few clippy lints here, but they're being solved in a
followup commit because I wanted to take care of all of them at
once (not just the ones introduced in this change).

This paves the way for using other things than stdin/stdout as
sources/sinks, which is required for example for implementing a

The complexity of the arg parsing is increasing somewhat because we're
adding more features to cheddar, so to set us up for that this
switches the arg parsing to the somewhat more flexible clap.

This also switches the syntax set used to the one from
//third_party/bat_syntaxes, which contains custom additions such as

Cheddar now needs to be passed the --about-filter flag to toggle the
behaviour for rendering Markdown into HTML.
By default Markdown will be highlighted like normal source code (i.e.
cgit source-filtering is the default behaviour).
Implements support for tagging paragraphs that begin with a callout
word (TODO, WARNING, QUESTION, TIP) with an additional `cheddar-*`
class that makes it possible to render these callouts specially.
This is currently not the nicest implementation, but it works.
Since I am going down the path of adding additional Markdown
extensions it makes sense to avoid letting `format_markdown` turn into
a giant beast of a function.
Therefore this commit extracts the logic for rendering code blocks via
syntect and changes the innards of `format_markdown` to instead
provide arbitrary AST value replacements.
Implements fully static (i.e. no JavaScript!) highlighting of code
blocks when rendering Markdown.
This works by walking through the Comrak AST and replacing any code
blocks with pre-rendered HTML blocks.
Syntaxes are chosen based on the "block info", which is the string
users put after the block's opening fence. This can either be
a (case-insensitive) name of a syntax, or alternatively a file
extension associated with the desired syntax.
The theme is set to one that imitates GitHub.
Renders any ".md" file by pushing it through the Comrak rendering
pipeline.
This does not yet implement syntax highlighting of fenced blocks, but
we're getting there.
Generalises the two bits of the program that will be required either
way (extension parsing and syntax loading).
A dependency on Comrak is introduced as I think GitHub-flavoured
Markdown (with all its fancy extensions) is desirable!
This uses Nix to inject the path to the syntax highlighting assets
that ship with the bat source code into the cheddar build at compile
time, where the Rust compiler then inserts it into the binary via
macros.
bat has a lot of custom syntax highlighting definitions that they
collected from all over the place (including for languages like Nix!)
and this makes them accessible to cheddar.
Also if you're reading this, can you just take a moment to appreciate
how incredible it is that Nix just lets us do something like this?!
The first step with this tool will be to use it as a source-filter for
cgit. The second step is to use it as the Markdown renderer by
depending on one of the Markdown libraries, with integration for
rendering code snippets directly.
