[FAIL()] is a macro with `return`, making it unsuitable for helpers. This uses std::runtime_error, because gtest does not seem to provide an exception type of its own for this purpose. [AssertionException] is for a different use case.

Generally we don't backport features (only bug fixes), especially when they're big (this is a 23-file diff). |

Without this, flakes can't be used through the C API. This is a fix for a regression in the shape of a feature; not just a new feature. |

Motivation
Nix 2.24's C API is currently incapable of providing flake functionality, because
libflakewasn't wrapped before #9063This PR provides a very basic
libflakethat restoresbuiltins.getFlake. (a feature compensating for a regression)Context
getFlakenot available through C API #11399libnixflake#9063Add 👍 to pull requests you find important.
The Nix maintainer team uses a GitHub project board to schedule and track reviews.
This is an automatic backport of pull request #11940 done by [Mergify](https://mergify.com).
