nvidia_x11 and persistenced were modified to provide binaries which can be
mounted inside a docker-container to be executed there.
most ldconfig-based discovery of bundled nvidia libraries is patched out
ldconfig itself is patched to be able to deal with patchelf'ed libraries

In ffc498c490 -j$NIX_BUILD_JOBS was added.
Somehow this caused my machine to run many many more parallel jobs than
it was supposed to, freezing the system.
If you don't experience this, feel free to revert.
Tested & reviewed by vcunat:
- the patch seems not needed anymore,
- reflects changes in their build system

nvidia's EGL stack looks for libGLESv2.so.2 at runtime (confirmed by
watching strace), however builder.sh only provides a libGLESv2.so.1
symlink.
@vcunat ported to legacy_340; older ones don't produce GLES.
Otherwise we end up with multiple versions of GTK in the system
closure. Also, GTK 3 is not well integrated in NixOS yet (e.g. it
doesn't respect KDE's colour scheme).
The GUI would no longer find libs it needed.
Now it's gtk3 by default, so we don't support gtk2 version for simplicity.
ldd finds no missing libs after this commit.
In most cases, this just meant changing kernelDev (now removed from
linuxPackagesFor) to kernel.dev. Some packages needed more work (though
whether that was because of my changes or because they were already
broken, I'm not sure). Specifics:
* psmouse-alps builds on 3.4 but not 3.10, as noted in the comments that
were already there
* blcr builds on 3.4 but not 3.10, as noted in comments that were
already there
* open-iscsi, ati-drivers, wis-go7007, and openafsClient don't build on
3.4 or 3.10 on this branch or on master, so they're marked broken
* A version-specific kernelHeaders package was added
The following packages were removed:
* atheros/madwifi is superceded by official ath*k modules
* aufs is no longer used by any of our kernels
* broadcom-sta v6 (which was already packaged) replaces broadcom-sta
* exmap has not been updated since 2011 and doesn't build
* iscis-target has not been updated since 2010 and doesn't build
* iwlwifi is part of mainline now and doesn't build
* nivida-x11-legacy-96 hasn't been updated since 2008 and doesn't build
Everything not specifically mentioned above builds successfully on 3.10.
I haven't yet tested on 3.4, but will before opening a pull request.

Several libs from the Nvidia distribution was not
copied to the nix store during installation. Therefore,
OpenCL was not working, for example.
The various nvidia-legacy packages are probably also
missing libs, this commit does not touch them, though.
