When reviewing old PRs, I found that #9997 adds some code to ensure one
particular assert is always present. But, removing asserts isn't
something we do in our own release builds either in the flake here or in
nixpkgs, and is plainly a bad idea that increases support burden,
especially if other distros make bad choices of build flags in their Nix
packaging.
For context, the assert macro in the C standard is defined to do nothing
if NDEBUG is set.
There is no way in our build system to set -DNDEBUG without manually
adding it to CFLAGS, so this is simply a configuration we do not use.
Let's ban it at compile time.
I put this preprocessor directive in src/libutil.cc because it is not
obvious where else to put it, and it seems like the most logical file
since you are not getting a usable nix without it.
Instead, serialize as NAR and send that over, then rehash sever side.
This is alorithmically simpler, but comes at the cost of a newer
parameter to `Store::addToStoreFromDump`.

desugaring inherit-from to syntactic duplication of the source expr also
duplicates side effects of the source expr (such as trace calls) and
expensive computations (such as derivationStrict).
Flakes still reside in the Nix store (so there shouldn't be any change
in behaviour), but they are now accessed via the rootFS
accessor. Since rootFS implements access checks, we no longer have to
worry about flake.{nix,lock} or their parents being symlinks that
escape from the flake.

The sandbox rule `(allow network* (local ip))` doesn't do what it
implies. Adding this rule permits all network traffic. We should be
matching on (remote ip "localhost:*")` instead.
This seems to have found one actual bug in fs-sink.cc: the symlink case
was falling into the regular file case, which can't possibly be
intentional, right?
