Looking for .drv file names in non .drv files doesn't make sense, as it
less reliably a reference in those cases. Matches behavior of the
function for Nix >= 2.6.

Turns out that pathContextDrvPath already exists as a builtin which
is very convenient. Actually somewhat embarassing that I missed this
for so long.

Emitting dependencies on non-drv store paths from drv directDrvDeps is
fine and actually correct, even though the Nix 2.3 version can't do it
at the moment (but this would change when the placeholder implementation
is replaced using a drv parser). However, we can't necessarily determine
the dependencies of non-drv store paths because such store paths may be
binary files that can't be read in by readFile due to NUL bytes.

This codepath will basically never be used in depot, but I want to add
it as kind of a note to myself. It's kind of a neat feature, although
I'm not quite sure it is going to stick around.

This was written with the same intention (and reuses a little of its
code) as cl/5060 and cl/5063: We want to be able to emit dependencies
between //nix/buildkite pipeline steps, so that no agent is occupied
with waiting on locks for derivations built by a different agent.
This dependency information is already available to the Nix store
implementation (e.g. via `nix-store --query --references`) and can also
be obtained in the Nix language which is important, since the pipeline
is generated at evaluation time. (Note: For Nix 2.3, you either need a
strong convention about how derivations expose their dependencies (which
we don't) or rely on store implementation internals (drv files).
For Nix 2.6 there is a better trick, but it also relies on the existence
of drv files.)
The actual task can be formulated as follows: Given a set of
derivations, calculate the the closest derivations also in the input
each derivation depends on. (We call these (next) known dependencies.)
This is crucial because pipeline step often depend on each other only
indirectly with any number of intermediate derivations. For cl/5064 I
determined that 6 intermediate layers is quite common for dependencies
that are perceived to be “direct”.
This problem is solved as follows:
1. Calculate the dependency graph of the combined dependency closure of
all input derivations. This is quite easy and fairly quick thanks to
the C++ implementation of builtins.genericClosure. One weak point of
the current implementation is that the function to determine the
direct derivation dependencies for Nix < 2.6 is quite hacky.
2. Take the graph from 1. and calculate a dependency graph that only
connects the known derivations of the input, but retains all
connections between them (minus intermediate nodes).
In practice the dependency graph is represented as an attribute set
mapping derivation paths to a list of derivation paths it depends on.
The second step is performed by adding a second list of known derivation
paths it depends on.
The main improvements over the previous concept (cl/5060 and cl/5063):
* We only try to find the closest known dependencies in the dependency
graph whereas we would traverse emit dependencies for the entire
dependency closure.
* We immediately store the calculation of the closest known dependency
in the dependency graph, even for intermediate nodes. This avoids
recalculating the connection (which was a big drawback of the previous
approach) and makes the calculation itself cheaper.
You can run `mg build //nix/dependency-analyzer:example` to build a
visualization of the internal dependencies between `depot.ci.targets` as
discovered by dependency-analyzer.
