Following legacy packing conventions, `isArm` was defined just for
32-bit ARM instruction set. This is confusing to non packagers though,
because Aarch64 is an ARM instruction set.
The official ARM overview for ARMv8[1] is surprisingly not confusing,
given the overall state of affairs for ARM naming conventions, and
offers us a solution. It divides the nomenclature into three levels:
```
ISA: ARMv8 {-A, -R, -M}
/ \
Mode: Aarch32 Aarch64
| / \
Encoding: A64 A32 T32
```
At the top is the overall v8 instruction set archicture. Second are the
two modes, defined by bitwidth but differing in other semantics too, and
buttom are the encodings, (hopefully?) isomorphic if they encode the
same mode.
The 32 bit encodings are mostly backwards compatible with previous
non-Thumb and Thumb encodings, and if so we can pun the mode names to
instead mean "sets of compatable or isomorphic encodings", and then
voilà we have nice names for 32-bit and 64-bit arm instruction sets
which do not use the word ARM so as to not confused either laymen or
experienced ARM packages.

The isSeccomputable flag treated Linux without seccomp as just a
normal variant, when it really should be treated as a special case
incurring complexity debt to support.
The isKexecable flag treated Linux without kexec as just a normal
variant, when it really should be treated as a special case incurring
complexity debt to support.

Updated to the latest version of the nixos-v237 branch, which fixes two
things:
* Make sure that systemd looks in /etc for configuration files.
https://github.com/NixOS/systemd/pull/15
* Fix handling of the x-initrd.mount option.
https://github.com/NixOS/systemd/pull/16
I've added NixOS VM tests for both to ensure we won't run into
regressions. The newly added systemd test only tests for that and is by
no means exhaustive, but it's a start.
Personally I only wanted to fix the former issue, because that's the one
I've been debugging. After sending in a pull request for our systemd
fork (https://github.com/NixOS/systemd/pull/17) I got a notice from
@Mic92, that he already fixed this and his fix was even better as it's
even suitable for upstream (so we hopefully can drop that patch
someday).
The reason why the second one came in was simply because it has been
merged before the former, but I thought it would be a good idea to have
tests for that as well.
In addition I've removed the sysconfdir=$out/etc entry to make sure the
default (/etc) is used. Installing is still done to $out, because those
directories that were previously into sysconfdir now get into
factoryconfdir.
Quote from commit NixOS/systemd@98067cc806:
By default systemd should read all its configuration from /etc.
Therefore we rely on -Dsysconfdir=/etc in meson as default value.
Unfortunately this would also lead to installation of systemd's own
configuration files to `/etc` whereas we are limited to /nix/store. To
counter that this commit introduces two new configuration variables
`factoryconfdir` and `factorypkgconfdir` to install systemd's own
configuration into nix store again, while having executables looking
up files in /etc.
Tested this change against all of the NixOS VM tests we have in
nixos/release.nix. Between this change and its parent no new tests were
failing (although a lot of them were flaky).

The indenting is a bit weird to follow, especially at the end of the
file (right brace without indent, but the opening brace is indented by
two spaces).
No functional change and I've verified this by building it with this
change and without and both lead to the same store paths.

* pkgs: refactor needless quoting of homepage meta attribute
A lot of packages are needlessly quoting the homepage meta attribute
(about 1400, 22%), this commit refactors all of those instances.

This moves libsystemd.so and libudev.so into systemd.lib, and gets rid
of libudev (which just contained a copy of libudev.so and the udev
headers). It thus reduces the closure size of all packages that
(indirectly) depend on libsystemd, of which there are quite a few (for
instance, PulseAudio and dbus). For example, it reduces the closure of
Blender from 430.8 to 400.8 MiB.
See https://github.com/systemd/systemd/blob/v230/NEWS for details.
The main incompatible change is that processes are now killed by
default when you exit a session. Thus, for example, using nohup in an
SSH session no longer works. You have to use "loginctl enable-linger"
and "systemd-run --user" to create a process that survives logout.
The update is basically just one additional commit, which was an
upstream cherry-pick pushed at NixOS/systemd#3 and it fixes
systemd-detect-virt with VirtualBox so that services with
ConditionVirtualization set to "oracle" will work properly.
I've tested this with the "virtualbox" NixOS VM test, which was failing
since the update to version 228.

The most complex problems were from dealing with switches reverted in
the meantime (gcc5, gmp6, ncurses6).
It's likely that darwin is (still) broken nontrivially.
Systemd dropped support in 207 (would be nice if configure failed with a bad flag),
so all this does is add an annoying delay if firmware can't be found by the kernel
- systemd puts all into one output now (except for man),
because I wasn't able to fix all systemd/udev refernces
for NixOS to work well
- libudev is now by default *copied* into another path,
which is what most packages will use as build input :-)
- pkgs.udev = [ libudev.out libudev.dev ]; because there are too many
references that just put `udev` into build inputs (to rewrite them all),
also this made "${udev}/foo" fail at *evaluation* time
so it's easier to catch and change to something more specific
This is a backport of systemd/systemd@e32886e.
As noted by @ts468 in #9876, systemd-detect-virt will report KVM if
we're running inside VirtualBox 5.x. Instead of just disabling the
check, this essentially fixes systemd to be able to detect VirtualBox
again.
Tested this against nixos/tests/simple.nix (just to make sure systemd is
still working) and nixos/tests/virtualbox.nix (all tests succeed).
Thanks a lot to @ts468 for catching this and also to @domenkozar for
testing various things concerning that bug.
Fixes#9876.

Instead delete the *.la files. The propagation of libcap was
apparently only necessary because there was a gratuitous -lcap in the
*.la files.

There are too many references to ${systemd}/foo,
and the savings would be on the order of 100 kB.
Also:
- fix udev install paths (again), hopefully OK now;
- fix one RPATH
- clean libudev propagation
- pick examples/ changes from staging (probably lost by some auto-merge)
- there were many easy merge conflicts
- cc-wrapper needed nontrivial changes
Many other problems might've been created by interaction of the branches,
but stdenv and a few other packages build fine now.
