Thanks to @Ericson2314 for the suggestion to provide a name for the hook
script. Comment was posted here:

Very useful if you use some other hooks and autoPatchelfHook so you
don't just get a bunch of "hook" derivations.
Tested by quickly building (not running) teamviewer and masterpdfeditor.

Ubiquiti has both a LTS and current version of their Unifi controller software.
The latter adds new features, but may drop support for some devices.
This adds the capability to use either for the unifi module but defaults
to the LTS version, which was the previous behavior.
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.

Adds a couple of useful NetBSD and OpenBSD derivations. Some of these
will be integrated into Nixpkgs later.
Noncomprehensive list:
- netbsd.getent
- netbsd.getconf
- netbsd.fts
- openbsd.mg
- netbsd.compat (can replace libbsd)
