Updates jdk dependency from 8 to 11. Clojure 1.10.0 added support for
jdk11, and was released with a new develper tool: REBL
(https://github.com/cognitect-labs/REBL-distro). REBL depends on javafx,
currently only supported on Nix by jdk11 (see #63574)
PHP 7.1 is currently on life support, as in only recieving security related patches.
This will only continue until: 2019-12-01
This date are in the middle of the 19.09 lifecycle. So it would be
nice to not have it in the 19.09 stable release. Dropping it now would
also result in less maintanance in updating them.
The death dates can be seen on following links:

This is python bug https://bugs.python.org/issue13146. Fixed since
python 3.4. It makes pyc creation atomic, preventing a race condition.
The patch has been rebased on our deterministic build patch.
It wasn't backported to python 2.7 because there was a complaint about
changed semantics. Since files are now created in a temporary directory
and then moved, symlinks will be overridden. See
https://bugs.python.org/issue17222.
That is an edge-case however. Ubuntu and debian have backported the fix
in 2013 already, making it mainstream enough for us to adopt.
`"lua" + lua.luaversion + "-"` resolves to "lua51-" for both Lua
5.1 and LuaJIT packages. With this, LuaJIT packages instead get
`lua.name + "-"`, which currently resolves to "luajit-2.1.0-beta3-".
This makes it easy to distinguish the two in store paths etc.

httpGate is a central element of the PicoLisp application server
architecture. Its purpose is to perform the following tasks:
* Provide a single application entry port (e.g. 80 or 443).
* Allow PicoLisp applications to run as non-root.
* Start application servers on demand.
* Handle HTTPS/SSL communication.
This is in preparation for adding Erlang/OTP 22 which no longer has a
`configure.in` and fails to build with the current
`generic-builder.nix`, but it should work for all supported, previous
versions of Erlang (R18–R21) as well.
Fixes #62775
Currently, trying to use help results in something like this:
```
: (help 'db)
========================================
w3m: Can't exec
=======================================
```
By including `w3m` as an input, the behaviour changes to:
```
: (help 'db)
========================================
(db 'sym 'cls ['hook] 'any ['sym 'any ..]) -> sym | NIL
Returns a database object of class cls, where the values for the sym arguments
correspond to the any arguments. If a matching object cannot be found, NIL is
returned. sym, cls and hook should specify a tree for cls or one of its
superclasses. See also aux, collect, request, fetch, init and step.

-> db
```
