nix: coroutine stack-to-heap overflow via unbounded recursion in NAR directory parser

A flaw was found in Nix. Unbounded recursion in the NAR Nix Archive parser could lead to a stack-to-heap overflow when the parser is run on a coroutine stack. The stack is allocated without a guard page, which means that a stack overflow could overwrite memory on the heap and could allow arbitrar...
