Previous test implementation assumed that grep supports newlines
in patterns. It doesn't, so tests spuriously passed, even though
some tests outputs were broken.
This patches output (and expected output) before grepping,
so there're no newlines in pattern.
When --unpack was used the nix would add the current directory to the
nix store instead of the content of unpacked.
The reason for this is that std::distance already consumes the iterator.
To fix this we re-instantiate the directory iterator in case the
directory only contains a single entry.
The code that counts the number of elided attrs incorrectly used the
per-printer "global" attribute counter instead of a counter that
was relevant only to the current attribute set.
This bug flew under the radar because often the attribute sets aren't
nested, not big enough, or we wouldn't pay attention to the numbers.
I've noticed the issue because the difference underflowed.
Although this behavior is tested by the functional test
lang/eval-fail-bad-string-interpolation-4.nix, the underflow slipped
through review. A simpler reproducer would be as follows, but I
haven't added it to the test suite to keep it simple and marginally
faster.
```
$ nix run nix/2.23.1 -- eval --expr '"" + (let v = { a = { a = 1; b = 2; c = 1; d = 1; e = 1; f = 1; g = 1; h = 1; }; b = { a = 1; b = 1; c = 1; }; }; in builtins.deepSeq v v)'

This tests the Nix language side of things.
We are purposely skipping most of `common.sh` because it is overkill for
this test: we don't want to have an "overfit" test environment.

Instead of running the builds under
`$TMPDIR/{unique-build-directory-owned-by-the-build-user}`, run them
under `$TMPDIR/{unique-build-directory-owned-by-the-daemon}/{subdir-owned-by-the-build-user}`
where the build directory is only readable and traversable by the daemon user.
This achieves two things:
1. It prevents builders from making their build directory world-readable
(or even writeable), which would allow the outside world to interact
with them.
2. It prevents external processes running as the build user (either
because that somehow leaked, maybe as a consequence of 1., or because
`build-users` isn't in use) from gaining access to the build
directory.
