Nix is one of those few things where it's actually better to use the
version that is on the host. This avoids having to deal with Nix
compatibility issues, and download a second version of Nix on hosts like
GitHub Actions.
... and remove some weirdnesses.
- Port to Python
- Drop the extra pkgs, config, system args
- Drop all `with`
- Don't override the standard PostgreSQL directory
- Use pkgs and lib from the test runner
Tested with:
- postgresql_12
- postgresql_11
- postgresql_10
- postgresql_9_6
- postgresql_9_5
Closes#96347

Note: The following might also need to be updated:
substituteStream(): WARNING: pattern '/usr/share/xcb' doesn't match anything in file 'ui/gfx/x/BUILD.gn'
I didn't look into this yet but IIRC M86 will finally have a flag for
Linux to enable VA-API. So we shouldn't need
enable-video-acceleration-on-linux.patch anymore.
But we likely need to update enable-vdpau-support-for-nvidia.patch
when/before M86 hits the stable channel if we want to keep VDPAU
support.
Ok, so I was about to update the patch (didn't apply anymore) when I
also started looking at it's usage and realized that
NIX_CHROMIUM_PLUGIN_PATH_ (and other substrings) only appears in the
patch itself (i.e. it seemed like we don't need this patch anymore).
Turns out that we have this patch since 2014 (1b84fbf0ca) and it was
only ever used for NIX_CHROMIUM_PLUGIN_PATH_WIDEVINE (and from the log
it isn't clear if/when or how well that worked). But in 2019 that last
usage got removed (545d58a1ef) so we should be able to safely drop this
patch now :) \o/
(I just wanted to note that as it seemed somewhat of a funny story :D
But there is of course nothing wrong with it.)

This is used by mesa.drivers (still on LLVM 9) as a cache key. I've
ported that change to LLVM 11 to test it and so that it doesn't get lost
in future versions. Credit for the change goes to David McFarland.
