Since Qt 5.8, font style names are handled in a way that prevents alternate
styles (bold, italic, etc.) from being selected for user interface fonts.

Provides an app to view battery and power statistics. This app is badly
documented on the web, but is in the default Fedora install; hence to
motivation to add it to Nix.
Otherwise the build fails to detect libusb and doesn't build
the 'xpwn' and 'dfu-util' tools.
New tools run but I don't have any suitable devices to test :).
(I believe latest iGadgets need a newer version of xpwn anyway)
Since firefox 58.0.1 the google api key is now stored at an absolute
path ($TMPDIR/ga). Since variable expansion in `configureFlags` does not
really work (as expected) the build started failing when using the
legacy firefox build system. With the newer `./mach` based builds
firefox reads the configure flags from `.mozconfig` instead.
This commit moves the `with-google-api-keyfile=` setting into the
`preConfigure` phase where we can properly expand `$TMPDIR` into
whatever the path is.
