Vincent Ambo 3aca3d3bba refactor(tvix): build Rust projects using crate2nix
Introduces granular dependency builds using crate2nix, bootstrapped
off the generated configuration from the newly introduced
workspace (see cl/7533).

This commit checks in the generated Cargo.nix file which can be
regenerated with a parameterless invocation of `crate2nix generate` in
`//tvix`. I tried generating this in IFD, but it turned out to be
harder than what seemed worthwhile for now.

In this setup, the various build targets for Rust projects end up
being attributes of the imported `Cargo.nix` file at the `tvix.crates`
attribute. These still lack configuration, however, which has been
fixed in the various `default.nix` files of individual projects.

Note that we (temporarily) lose the ability to build tvix-eval's
benchmarks in CI. I haven't figured out what magic incantation summons
them from the void again ...

The `eval-okay-readDir` tests from both test suites have been disabled
because they fail for unknown reasons when run in this new derivation.
Somebody will have to debug it!

Tvix

For more information about Tvix, contact one of the project owners. We are interested in people who would like to help us review designs, brainstorm and describe requirements that we may not yet have considered.

Rust projects

Some parts of Tvix are written in Rust. To simplify the dependency management on the Nix side of these builds, we use crate2nix in a single Rust workspace in //tvix to maintain the Nix build configuration.

When making changes to Cargo dependency configuration in any of the Rust projects under //tvix, be sure to run crate2nix generate in //tvix itself and commit the changes to the generated Cargo.nix file.

crate2nix is available via direnv inside of depot, or can be built from the third_party.nixpkgs.crate2nix attribute of depot. Make sure to build it from depot to avoid generating files with a different version that might have different output.

License structure

All code implemented for Tvix is licensed under the GPL-3.0, with the exception of the protocol buffer definitions used for communication between services which are available under a more permissive license (MIT).

The idea behind this structure is that any direct usage of our code (e.g. linking to it, embedding the evaluator, etc.) will fall under the terms of the GPL3, but users are free to implement their own components speaking these protocols under the terms of the MIT license.
