Rootston is just a reference compositor so it doesn't make that much
sense to have a module for it. Upstream doesn't really like it as well:
"Rootston will never be intended for downstream packages, it's an
internal thing we use for testing." - SirCmpwn [0]
Removing the package and the module shouldn't cause much problems
because it was marked as broken until
886131c243. If required the package can
still be accessed via wlroots.bin (could be useful for testing
purposes).

Nixpkgs' channel currently can't move forward so long as there is a
trace in evaluating the top-level arguments. Which means that it isn't
possible to add a warning message to warn users of future package
removal.
So the only way forward appears to be just removing the alias
altogether.

the output.

Building stack with ghc-8.4.x requires a whole lot of version overrides -- most
notably Cabal 2.4.x --, so we don't bother and just use the one built with the
latest compiler instead.
when calling python3Packages.gpgme, it was still picking python2.
Changed withPython into pythonSupport since it's the convention.
