To fix overriding packages that checks for platform compatibility, like pipewire.
`pipewire` contains the following logic to enable support for ldac depending on library platform compatibility:
```nix
ldacbtSupport = lib.meta.availableOn stdenv.hostPlatform ldacbt
```
Which is used later in the expression to create a Meson flag:
```nix
(lib.mesonEnable "bluez5-codec-ldac" (bluezSupport && ldacbtSupport))
```
This means that attempting to build `pipewire` without `ldacbt` like:
```nix
pipewire.override {
ldacbt = null;
}
```
will fail because the the Meson flag indicates the feature should be enabled, but the library is passed to `buildInputs` as `null`.
lib.strings.escapeC produces single‐digit hexadecimal strings for
character values ≤ 15, which results in an ambiguity. If the following
character is a hex digit, it will be interpreted as being part of the
escape sequence.
systemd, which also relies on C‐style escape sequences, does not
decode single‐digit sequences at all, even if unambiguous.
Padding the hexadecimal string with "0" avoids this problem.
qemu architecture names are fixed — we're using uname here just
because it's more likely to be correct than CPU name (see e.g. POWER).
This means that aarch64 is always called aarch64, even on Darwin where
uname reports arm64.
Fixes: 61582c7043 ("lib/systems: use Darwin architecture names for `config` and `uname`")
So we are adding a simplified version that builds a monolithic nix binary to get finished
in time for the release. Afterwards we will switch to the modular build again.
Format all Nix files using the officially approved formatter,
making the CI check introduced in the previous commit succeed:
nix-build ci -A fmt.check
This is the next step of the of the [implementation](https://github.com/NixOS/nixfmt/issues/153)
of the accepted [RFC 166](https://github.com/NixOS/rfcs/pull/166).
This commit will lead to merge conflicts for a number of PRs,
up to an estimated ~1100 (~33%) among the PRs with activity in the past 2
months, but that should be lower than what it would be without the previous
[partial treewide format](https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/322537).
Merge conflicts caused by this commit can now automatically be resolved while rebasing using the
[auto-rebase script](8616af08d9/maintainers/scripts/auto-rebase).
