added tldr to all-packages.nix
cleaned up style
added metadata
semicolons
didn't test on mac. removed platform
wrong types
fixed duplication of version
Currently the package is built with /var in $out/var. That fails when it
tries to create/write things at runtime (nix store is read-only).
Instead, tell it to use /var (global directory) and fixup the
installation phase so it doesn't touch /var (leave that for runtime).
This unbreaks the colord dbus service, which apparently is needed by
cups to create color profiles for printers.
Otherwise it will try to guess the log directory, and the guess might
not be the same if chroot builds are enabled or not.
The gruesome details from m4/sudo.m4:

Running zpaq on an older but not ancient 64-bit Intel server aborts
with an ‘Illegal instruction’ error. Turns out the build expression
was using -march=native to generate distibution binaries...
Change this to more conservative, portable settings which should
cover ‘all’ CPUs. It may run slightly slower — but that at least
implies running.
As a nice side effect, all common compile flags are now back in
`compileFlags` whence they came, and actually used consistently.

The mass errors on Hydra seem transient; I verified ghc on i686-linux.
Only darwin jobs are queued ATM. There's a libpng security update
included in this merge, so I don't want to wait too long.
The configure script tries to probe whether /var/run exists when
determining the location for the pid file, which is not very nice when
doing chroot builds. Just set it explicitly to avoid the problem.
For reference, the culprit in configure.ac:
````
piddir=/var/run
if test ! -d $piddir ; then
piddir=`eval echo ${sysconfdir}`
case $piddir in
NONE/*) piddir=`echo $piddir | sed "s~NONE~$ac_default_prefix~"` ;;
esac
fi
AC_ARG_WITH([pid-dir],
[ --with-pid-dir=PATH Specify location of ssh.pid file],
...
````
Also, use the `install-nokeys` target in installPhase so we avoid
installing useless host keys into $out/etc/ssh and improve built purity
as well.
