Switch out the string-scanning algorithm used in the reference scanner.
The construction of aho-corasick automata made up the vast majority of
runtime when evaluating nixpkgs previously. While the actual scanning
with a constructed automaton is relatively fast, we almost never scan
for the same set of strings twice and the cost is not worth it.
An algorithm that better matches our needs is the Wu-Manber multiple
string match algorithm, which works efficiently on *long* and *random*
strings of the *same length*, which describes store paths (up to their
hash component).
This switches the refscanner crate to a Rust implementation[0][1] of
this algorithm.
This has several implications:
1. This crate does not provide a way to scan streams. I'm not sure if
this is an inherent problem with the algorithm (probably not, but
it would need buffering). Either way, related functions and
tests (which were actually unused) have been removed.
2. All strings need to be of the same length. For this reason, we
truncate the known paths after their hash part (they are still
unique, of course).
3. Passing an empty set of matches, or a match that is shorter than
the length of a store path, causes the crate to panic. We safeguard
against this by completely skipping the refscanning if there are no
known paths (i.e. when evaluating the first derivation of an eval),
and by bailing out of scanning a string that is shorter than a
store path.
On the upside, this reduces overall runtime to less 1/5 of what it was
before when evaluating `pkgs.stdenv.drvPath`.
[0]: Frankly, it's a random, research-grade MIT-licensed
crate that I found on Github:
https://github.com/jneem/wu-manber
[1]: We probably want to rewrite or at least fork the above crate, and
add things like a three-byte wide scanner. Evaluating large
portions of nixpkgs can easily lead to more than 65k derivations
being scanned for.

Instead of being called with `md5`, `sha1`, `sha256` or `sha512`,
`fetchurl.nix` (from corepkgs / `<nix`) can also be called with a `hash`
attribute, being an SRI hash.
In that case, `builtin.derivation` is called with `outputHashAlgo` being
an empty string, and `outputHash` being an SRI hash string.
In other cases, an SRI hash is passed as outputHash, but outputHashAlgo
is set too.
Nix does modify these values in (single, fixed) output specification it
serializes to ATerm, but keeps it unharmed in `env`.
Move this into a construct_output_hash helper function, that can be
tested better in isolation.

Apparently our naive implementation of float formatting, which simply
used {:.5}, and trimmed trailing "0" strings not sufficient.
It wrongly trimmed numbers with zeroes but no decimal point, like
`10000` got trimmed to `1`.
Nix uses `std::to_string` on the double, which according to
https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/string/basic_string/to_string
is equivalent to `std::sprintf(buf, "%f", value)`.
https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/io/c/fprintf mentions this is treated
like this:
> Precision specifies the exact number of digits to appear after
> the decimal point character. The default precision is 6. In the
> alternative implementation decimal point character is written even if
> no digits follow it. For infinity and not-a-number conversion style
> see notes.
This doesn't seem to be the case though, and Nix uses scientific
notation in some cases.
There's a whole bunch of strategies to determine which is a more compact
notation, and which notation should be used for a given number.
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/24556 provides some pointers
into various rabbit holes for those interested.
This gist seems to be that currently a different formatting is not
exposed in rust directly, at least not for public consumption.
There is the
[lexical-core](https://github.com/Alexhuszagh/rust-lexical) crate
though, which provides a way to format floats with various strategies
and formats.
Change our implementation of `TotalDisplay` for the `Value::Float` case
to use that. We still need to do some post-processing, because Nix
always adds the sign in scientific notation (and there's no way to
configure lexical-core to do that), and lexical-core in some cases keeps
the trailing zeros.
Even with all that in place, there as a difference in `eval-okay-
fromjson.nix` (from tvix-tests), which I couldn't get to work. I updated
the fixture to a less problematic number.
With this, the testsuite passes again, and does for the upcoming CL
introducing builtins.fromTOML, and enabling the nix testsuite bits for
it, too.

This module implements a ReferenceScanner struct which uses the
aho_corasick crate to scan string inputs for known, non-overlapping
candidates (store paths, in our case).
I experimented with several different APIs, and landed on this version
with an initial accumulator in the scanner. The scanner is
instantiated from the candidates and "fed" all the strings, then
consumed by the caller to retrieve the result.
Right now only things that look vaguely like bytestrings can be fed to
the scanner, there is no streaming support in the API yet.

Lists are not the most performance-critical structure in Nix (that

improvement.
Note that there are a handful of cases where we still go via `Vec`
that need to be fixed, most notable for `builtins.sort` which can not
currently be implemented directly using `im::Vector` because of a
restrictive type bound.

This relates to the (abandoned) cl/7256.
Introduces a Cargo workspace at //tvix that is primarily intended to
be used as a workaround for the annoying Nix+Rust tooling while having
a consistent set of dependencies.
This is driven in part by a desire to adopt crate2nix and get more
granular Nix builds for Tvix's Rust projects, and in part by a need to
split //tvix/eval into something providing the CLI (REPL etc.), and a
library providing eval, without significantly altering the structure
of build targets.
To accomplish this the workspace has been designed to allow projects
to remain independent build targets. I want to avoid lumping all the
projects together - something like //tvix/eval should always be
independent of other parts of tvix.
A helper function in //tvix/default.nix lets downstream naersk
projects construct a sparse root for the project which combines the
workspace's `Cargo.lock` with the project's own `Cargo.toml`.
Note that cargo commands in the workspace itself require the build
dependencies of _all_ projects to be present, which is currently a bit
annoying to accomplish.
This introduces some breakage:
1. It breaks usage of rust-analyser without being in a shell with the
dependencies of *all* Tvix projects, as it is not capable of
respecting only the subset of dependencies for a part of the
workspace.
2. It is no longer possible to run tests using `cargo test`, as the
test generation crate we use does not work with workspaces:
https://github.com/frehberg/test-generator/issues/6
This still works in the Nix build as we construct a Cargo project
that looks like it's not in a workspace there. Until somebody fixes
that crate / writes a new macro / does something else with the test
suite, the way to run the tests is through the Nix build.
Long-term we'll probably want to get rid of cargo completely, it's
just a big wart and most tooling works without it if correctly
configured, but we don't have time for that now.
