Add path primop.
2018-02-06 Add path primop.Shea Levy1-2/+72
builtins.path allows specifying the name of a path (which makes paths with store-illegal names now addable), allows adding paths with flat instead of recursive hashes, allows specifying a filter (so is a generalization of filterSource), and allows specifying an expected hash (enabling safe path adding in pure mode).

2017-08-15 Add builtins.string function.Nicolas B. Pierron1-0/+37
The function 'builtins.split' takes a POSIX extended regular expression and an arbitrary string. It returns a list of non-matching substring interleaved by lists of matched groups of the regular expression. ```nix with builtins; assert split "(a)b" "abc" == [ "" [ "a" ] "c" ]; assert split "([ac])" "abc" == [ "" [ "a" ] "b" [ "c" ] "" ]; assert split "(a)|(c)" "abc" == [ "" [ "a" null ] "b" [ null "c" ] "" ]; assert split "([[:upper:]]+)" " FOO " == [ " " [ "FOO" ] " " ]; ```
