In #19309 a separate output for tkinter was added.
Several dependencies of Python depend indirectly on Python. We have the
following two paths:
```
‘python-2.7.12’ - ‘tk-8.6.6’ - ‘libXft-2.3.2’ - ‘libXrender-0.9.10’ -
‘libX11-1.6.4’ - ‘libxcb-1.12’ - ‘libxslt-1.1.29’- ‘libxml2-2.9.4’ -
‘python-2.7.12’
‘python-2.7.12’ - ‘tk-8.6.6’ - ‘libXft-2.3.2’ - ‘fontconfig-2.12.1’ -
‘dejavu-fonts-2.37’ - ‘fontforge-20160404’ - ‘python-2.7.12’
```
Because only `tkinter` needs this, I added
```
pythonSmall = python.override {x11Support = false;};
```
to break the infinite recursion. We also still have the output
`tkinter`.
However, we might as well build without x11Support by default. Then we build with x11Support as well so we get the tkinter module and put that in a separate package.
`stripHash` documentation states that it prints out the stripped name to
the stdout, but the function stored the value in `strippedName`
instead.
Basically all usages did something like
`$(stripHash $foo | echo $strippedName)` which is just braindamaged.
Fixed the implementation and all invocations.
They now go to devman, devdoc, or $outputMan, in that order. This is
to prevent cases such as the man-pages package quietly losing its
section 3 pages.
This one was already merged into release-16.09, so let's not have the
stable branch is ahead of master and confuse things. In addition to
that, currently we have an odd situation that master has less things
actually finished building than in staging.

This was one of the ways to build packages, we are trying
hard to minimize different ways so it's easier for newcomers
to learn only one way.
This also:
- removes texLive (old), fixes #14807
- removed upstream-updater, if that code is still used it should be in
separate repo
- changes a few packages like gitit/mit-scheme to use new texlive
After #16017 there were a lot
of comments saying that `nix` would be better than `JSON`
for Go packages dependency sets.
As said in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/16017#issuecomment-229624046

This PR removes `libs.json` file and puts all package dependencies in
theirs `deps.json`.
