If `PATH` is unset, the exec wrappers in skalibs set a default path to
`/usr/bin:bin`.
This has very unfortunate effects when you e.g. try to run tests on CI
in an empty environment (minus tools explicitely provided by nix with
absolute store paths), because suddenly binaries from outside are
picked up again, especially on non-NixOS.
Even on NixOS, /bin/sh provides another escape hatch if it’s available
from PATH. But on systems like Ubuntu or MacOS (which most CI systems
run on), this picks up all the non-nix binaries.
Introduce a `skawarePackages.buildPackage` function that contains the
common setup, removing a lot of duplication.
In particular, we require that the build directory has to be empty
after the `fixupPhase`, to make sure every relevant file is moved to
the outputs.
A next step would be to deduplicate the `configureFlags` attributes
and only require a `skawareInputs` field.
The configure scripts have been changed so that `--build` is now the
way to specify (non-cross compiling) build target, which is necessary
on darwin for binary compatibility across darwin versions.
execline: 2.1.4.5 -> 2.2.0.0
s6-dns: 2.0.0.7 -> 2.1.0.0
s6-linux-utils: 2.0.2.3 -> 2.2.0.0
s6-networking: 2.1.0.4 -> 2.2.1.0
s6-portable-utils: 2.1.0.0 -> 2.1.0.0 (no version change)
s6-rc: 0.0.2.1 -> 0.1.0.0
s6: 2.2.4.3 -> 2.4.0.0
skalibs: 2.3.9.0 -> 2.4.0.1
Also use new --enable-absolute-paths configure arg to correctly set
paths to runtime executables to point within the nix store rather than
relying on PATH resolution.

The above software uses the target triplet from `cc -dumpmachine` as a
binary compatibility check. However, on darwin, the output includes the
darwin version number, which leads to build failures against a binary
skalibs package built a different version of darwin than the current
system.
Explicitly setting target ensures code can be compiled against a skalibs
binary built on a different version of darwin.

The website gives no indication that version 4.x is required to build
this package, and even it if were, then there should be an override in
all-packages.nix instead of referring to the 'gnumake40' attribute
directly in this expression.
New build system using configure script and GNU Make 4.0, and new
releases of the following using the new build system:
execline 2.0.0.0
s6 2.0.0.0
s6-dns 2.0.0.0
s6-linux-utils 2.0.0.0
s6-networking 2.0.0.0
s6-portable-utils 2.0.0.0
skalibs 2.0.0.0
