The `platform` field is pointless nesting: it's just stuff that happens
to be defined together, and that should be an implementation detail.
This instead makes `linux-kernel` and `gcc` top level fields in platform
configs. They join `rustc` there [all are optional], which was put there
and not in `platform` in anticipation of a change like this.
`linux-kernel.arch` in particular also becomes `linuxArch`, to match the
other `*Arch`es.
The next step after is this to combine the *specific* machines from
`lib.systems.platforms` with `lib.systems.examples`, keeping just the
"multiplatform" ones for defaulting.
`throw` aborts eval when the package is touched in inappropriate places. See
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/109001 for an adverse instance of that.
ZFS now behaves like a regular broken package when it's, you know, broken.
It also still prints the helpful incompatibility notice when fully evaluated.
Fixes the evaluation of packages in pkgs/os-specific/windows that
weren't updated to include a new lib parameter after the refactor from
stdenv.lib -> lib (#109490).
I originally only intended this change to fix
`pkgsCross.mingw32.buildPackages.gcc` & `pkgsCross.mingwW64.buildPackages.gcc`
to support building wine with `mingwSupport`, but I noticed this was
an issue for all updated windows packages. Most of these other
packages fail to build for other reasons.

pkgconfig was aliased in 2018, however, it remained in
all-packages.nix due to its wide usage. This cleans
up the remaining references to pkgs.pkgsconfig and
moves the entry to aliases.nix.
python3Packages.pkgconfig remained unchanged because
it's the canonical name of the upstream package
on pypi.
it looks like this build wasn't tested with musl-libc after upgrading to
1.5.1, and has been broken in this configuration since, as the removed
patch does not apply cleanly. the good news is it's been fixed upstream,
rendering it unnecessary.
ebtables 2.0.11 renamed the ebtables commands
from "ebtables*" to "ebtables-legacy-*".
Of course this breaks legacy packages and scripts
that depends on the ebtables commands.
The idea behind this upstream change appears to be that
ebtables-nft replaces ebtables and distributions should
rename either the ebtables-legacy or ebtables-nft commands
to provide the ebtables commands.
For nix a better fit is for packages to specify either the
ebtables or the ebtables-nft package, while both packages
provide the same commands.
This patch restores the ebtables package so it functions again.
