gcc provides wrappers for binutils' ar, nm and ranlib
executables, which must be used instead when using link-time
optimisation. See also:
http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/zesty/man1/aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc-ar-5.1.html
The upstream version of avr-gcc-ar searches in paths passed to
the configure script for the avr-ar binary that it wraps, falling
back to searching PATH instead. Thus currently avr-gcc-ar works on
Nix, but only if avrbinutils is already in the environment.
This change bakes the path to avr-ar into avr-gcc-ar, since its path
is known at compile time. It also no longer searches PATH, meaning the
user's local environment won't override this path.
Note that avr-gcc-nm and avr-gcc-ranlib are compiled from the same
source file as avr-gcc-ar, just with different compiler flags.
Testing on master (without avrbinutils in the environment):
$ nix-build -A avrgcc
$ result/bin/avr-gcc-ar --version
result/bin/avr-gcc-ar: Cannot find binary 'avr-ar'
Testing on branch with this fix:
$ nix-build -A avrgcc
$ result/bin/avr-gcc-ar --version
GNU ar (GNU Binutils) 2.26.20160125

The biggest benefit is that we no longer have to update the registry
package. This means that just about any cargo package can be built by
nix. No longer does `cargo update` need to be feared because it will
update to packages newer then what is available in nixpkgs.
Instead of fetching the cargo registry this bundles all the source code
into a "vendor/" folder.
This also uses the new --frozen and --locked flags which is nice.
Currently cargo-vendor only provides binaries for Linux and
macOS 64-bit. This can be solved by building it for the other
architectures and uploading it somewhere (like the NixOS cache).
This also has the downside that it requires a change to everyone's deps
hash. And if the old one is used because it was cached it will fail to
build as it will attempt to use the old version. For this reason the
attribute has been renamed to `cargoSha256`.

- avr-gcc 5.3.0 -> 5.4.0
closes #28220
Since the packages do not share a common prefix anymore, you need
to define the current store paths in your project's Makefile.
Example for an atmega644 build:
CFLAGS += -I /nix/store/9rffxzds5crcpm76g3nr03jx0aa657cf-avr-libc-2.0.0/avr/include
CFLAGS += -B /nix/store/9rffxzds5crcpm76g3nr03jx0aa657cf-avr-libc-2.0.0/avr/lib/avr5
CFLAGS += -L /nix/store/9rffxzds5crcpm76g3nr03jx0aa657cf-avr-libc-2.0.0/avr/lib/avr5
CFLAGS += -L /nix/store/8409dj9js4i5901i63275wxdm783l0p6-avr-gcc-5.4.0/lib/gcc/avr/5.4.0/avr5
* pkgs: refactor needless quoting of homepage meta attribute
A lot of packages are needlessly quoting the homepage meta attribute
(about 1400, 22%), this commit refactors all of those instances.
* pkgs: Fixing some links that were wrongfully unquoted in the previous
commit
* Fixed some instances
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
Attrnames and package names should be as close as possible to avoid confusion.
I took care not to confuse the two mpc things during the mass-replace,
so hopefully I suceeded (tarball still builds).
We cannot auto build amdadl-sdk on hydra, so setting license to unfree disable
auto builds. I also remove amdadl license, because it's irrelevant.
vcunat changed string license to attribute.
There are many more packages to fix, this is just a start.
Rules:
* Don't repeat the package name (not always that easy...)
* Start with capital letter
* Don't end with full stop
* Don't start with "The ..." or "A ..."
I've also added descriptions to some packages and rewritten others.
