d0677e6d45 treewide: add warning comment to “boot” packages
This adds a warning to the top of each “boot” package that reads:

  Note: this package is used for bootstrapping fetchurl, and thus cannot
  use fetchpatch! All mutable patches (generated by GitHub or cgit) that
  are needed here should be included directly in Nixpkgs as files.

This makes it clear to maintainer that they may need to treat this
package a little differently than others. Importantly, we can’t use
fetchpatch here due to using <nix/fetchurl.nix>. To avoid having stale
hashes, we need to include patches that are subject to changing
overtime (for instance, gitweb’s patches contain a version number at
the bottom).

213be075d1 libelf: Add patch to prevent -Wundef warnings.
The Linux kernel includes libelf headers with -Wundef and -Werror enabled, resulting in an error when the headers are found through -I as opposed to -isystem.

Fixes https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/59929

0828e2d8c3 treewide: Remove usage of remaining redundant platform compatability stuff
Want to get this out of here for 18.09, so it can be deprecated
thereafter.

e73d805aa9 libelf: Fix cross compilation
There is an upstream bug where it is assumed that if host != build, host
doesn't support shared libraries. We override that overly conservative
check. See
http://lists.uclibc.org/pipermail/uclibc-cvs/2005-August/019383.html

Also clean up some comments.

PR #26007 used these to avoid causing a mass rebuild. Now that we know
things work, we do that to clean up.

aff1f4ab94 Use general hardening flag toggle lists
The following parameters are now available:

  * hardeningDisable
    To disable specific hardening flags
  * hardeningEnable
    To enable specific hardening flags

Only the cc-wrapper supports this right now, but these may be reused by
other wrappers, builders or setup hooks.

cc-wrapper supports the following flags:

  * fortify
  * stackprotector
  * pie (disabled by default)
  * pic
  * strictoverflow
  * format
  * relro
  * bindnow

bf414c9d4f Merge 'staging' into closure-size
- there were many easy merge conflicts
- cc-wrapper needed nontrivial changes

Many other problems might've been created by interaction of the branches,
but stdenv and a few other packages build fine now.

349a25fb2c libelf: Fix cross-compile by adding glibc as a native build input.
TBD: This can probably be unconditional but I put it into crossAttrs to avoid a rebuild of native stuff.

c9baba9212 Fix many package descriptions
(My OCD kicked in today...)

Remove repeated package names, capitalize first word, remove trailing
periods and move overlong descriptions to longDescription.

I also simplified some descriptions as well, when they were particularly
long or technical, often based on Arch Linux' package descriptions.

I've tried to stay away from generated expressions (and I think I
succeeded).

Some specifics worth mentioning:
 * cron, has "Vixie Cron" in its description. The "Vixie" part is not
   mentioned anywhere else. I kept it in a parenthesis at the end of the
   description.

 * ctags description started with "Exuberant Ctags ...", and the
   "exuberant" part is not mentioned elsewhere. Kept it in a parenthesis
   at the end of description.

 * nix has the description "The Nix Deployment System". Since that
   doesn't really say much what it is/does (especially after removing
   the package name!), I changed that to "Powerful package manager that
   makes package management reliable and reproducible" (borrowed from
   nixos.org).

 * Tons of "GNU Foo, Foo is a [the important bits]" descriptions
   is changed to just [the important bits]. If the package name doesn't
   contain GNU I don't think it's needed to say it in the description
   either.

d8231a66eb glibc: Split into multiple outputs
This reduces the size of closures a lot by getting rid of Glibc's
header files, static libraries and utilities.  For instance, the
closure of GNU Hello went from 41 MiB to 22 MiB.

TODO: We may want to merge back in parts of Glibc that we previously
split off (such as the info files).
