unimplemented, but adds handling for g: in hash objects.

currently unimplemented
This simplifies code so that references to r: come from
ingestionMethodPrefix.
This is much less confusing since recursive is no longer a boolean.
This is a different recursive than used in makeFixedOutputPath.

With cases like these its is good to use switch case instead, so the compiler can help us make sure we caught all the cases.

This closes NixOS#3026 by allowing `builtins.readFile` to read a file with a
wrongly reported file size, for example, files in `/proc` may report a
file size of 0. Reading file in `/proc` is not a good enough motivation,
however I do think it just makes nix more robust by allowing more file
to be read.  Especially, I do considerer the previous behavior to be
dangerous because nix was previously reading truncated files. Examples
of file system which incorrectly report file size may be network file
system or dynamic file system (for performance reason, a dynamic file
system such as FUSE may generate the content of the file on demand).

```
nix-repl> builtins.readFile "/proc/version"
""
```

With this commit:

```
nix-repl> builtins.readFile "/proc/version"
"Linux version 5.6.7 (nixbld@localhost) (gcc version 9.3.0 (GCC)) #1-NixOS SMP Thu Apr 23 08:38:27 UTC 2020\n"
```

Here is a summary of the behavior changes:

- If the reported size is smaller, previous implementation
was silently returning a truncated file content. The new implementation
is returning the correct file content.

- If a file had a bigger reported file size, previous implementation was
failing with an exception, but the new implementation is returning the
correct file content. This change of behavior is coherent with this pull
request.

Open questions

- The behavior is unchanged for correctly reported file size, however
performances may vary because it uses the more complex sink interface.
Considering that sink is used a lot, I don't think this impacts the
performance a lot.
- `builtins.readFile` on an infinite file, such as `/dev/random` may
fill the memory.
- it does not support adding file to store, such as `${/proc/version}`.

This deadlocks ProgressBar, e.g.

  # nix run --impure --no-substitute --store '/tmp/nix2?store=/foo' --expr 'derivation { builder = /nix/store/zi90rxslsm4mlr46l2xws1rm94g7pk8p-busybox-1.31.1-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl/bin/busybox; }'

So far only drainFD sets the non-blocking flag on a "readable" file descriptor,
while this is a "writeable" file descriptor.
It's not clear to me yet, why we see logs after that point, but it's
also not that bad to handle EAGAIN in read/write functions after all.

This was removed in NixOS#11152. However,
we need it for the multi-threaded evaluator, because otherwise Boehm
GC will crash while scanning the thread stack:

This is because it will use the stack pointer of the coroutine, so it
will scan a region of memory that doesn't exist, e.g.

  Stack for thread 0x7ffea4ff96c0 is [0x7ffe80197af0w,0x7ffea4ffa000)

(where 0x7ffe80197af0w is the sp of the coroutine and 0x7ffea4ffa000
is the base of the thread stack).

We don't scan coroutine stacks, because currently they don't have GC
roots (there is no evaluation happening in coroutines). So there is
currently no need to restore the other parts of the original patch,
such as BoehmGCStackAllocator.

… with newer nixpkgs

Firstly, this is now available on darwin where the default in llvm 19.
Secondly, this leads to very weird segfaults when building with newer nixpkgs for some reason.
(It's UB after all).

This appears when building with the following:

mesonComponentOverrides = finalAttrs: prevAttrs: {
mesonBuildType = "debugoptimized";
dontStrip = true;
doCheck = false;
separateDebugInfo = false;
preConfigure = (prevAttrs.preConfigure or "") + ''
  case "$mesonBuildType" in
  release|minsize|debugoptimized) appendToVar mesonFlags "-Db_lto=true"  ;;
  *)                              appendToVar mesonFlags "-Db_lto=false" ;;
  esac
'';
};

And with the following nixpkgs input:

nix build ".#nix-cli" -L --override-input nixpkgs "https://releases.nixos.org/nixos/unstable/nixos-25.11pre870157.7df7ff7d8e00/nixexprs.tar.xz"
