The hack of using `crossConfig` to enforce stricter handling of
dependencies is replaced with a dedicated `strictDeps` for that purpose.
(Experience has shown that my punning was a terrible idea that made more
difficult and embarrising to teach teach.)
Now that is is clear, a few packages now use `strictDeps`, to fix
various bugs:
- bintools-wrapper and cc-wrapper
Regression introduced in 736848723e.
This commit most certainly hasn't been tested with sandboxing enabled
and breaks not only pullImage but also the docker-tools NixOS VM test
because it doesn't find it's certificate path and also relies on
/var/tmp being there.
Fixing the certificate path is the easiest one because it can be done
via environment variable.
I've used overrideAttrs for changing the hardcoded path to /tmp (which
is available in sandboxed builds and even hardcoded in Nix), so that
whenever someone uses Skopeo from all-packages.nix the path is still
/var/tmp.
The reason why this is hardcoded to /var/tmp can be seen in a comment in
vendor/github.com/containers/image/storage/storage_image.go:
Do not use the system default of os.TempDir(), usually /tmp, because
with systemd it could be a tmpfs.
With sandboxed builds this isn't the case, however for using Nix without
NixOS this could turn into a problem if this indeed is the case.
So in the long term this needs to have a proper solution.
In addition to that, I cleaned up the expression a bit.
Tested by building dockerTools.examples.nixFromDockerHub and the
docker-tools NixOS VM test.

The script would parse the output of `git submodule status` but
didn't handle paths with spaces in them. This would result in the
following error when trying to determine the URL of the submodule:
error: key does not contain a section: .url
* fetchs3: add configurable name
Change the default from "foo" to the basename of the s3 URL and make it
configurable.
* fetchs3: fix error on missing credentials.session_token
The session token should default to null instead of failing
* fetchs3: make use of the region argument
Set it to null if you don't want to use it
* fetchs3: prefer local build
Fetcher-types spend more time on network than CPU
Skopeo is used to pull images from a Docker registry (instead of a
Docker deamon in a VM).
An image reference is specified with its name and its digest which is
an immutable image identifier (unlike image name and tag).
Skopeo can be used to get the digest of an image, for instance:
$ skopeo inspect docker://docker.io/nixos/nix:1.11 | jq -r '.Digest'
... binutils and gcc add it already anyway.
Without this it's easy to get cross-toolchain paths longer than 256
chars and nix-daemon will then fail to commit them to /nix/store on XFS.
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)
Since the script running is a failure condition, we should fail the
build properly, not leaving it up to the missing output to determine
that the build went wrong. This should partly address #38952 — nix
build will print out the build log on non-zero exits.
Also fix numberous bugs, such as:
- Not getting confused on more flags taking file arguments.
- Ensuring children reexport their children, but the original
binary/library doesn't.
- Not spawning children when it turns out we just dynamically link
under the threshold but our total number of inputs exceeeds it.
- Children were always named `libunnamed-*`, when that name was
supposed to be the last resort only.
ld-wrapper's own RPATH check hardcodes `.so`, but darwin uses `.dylib`
*and* (in practice due to lousy build systems) `.so`. We don't care
however because we never inject `--rpath` like that in practice on
Darwin. Hopefully someday we won't on linux either.
