In preparation for the deprecation of `stdenv.isX`.
These shorthands are not conducive to cross-compilation because they
hide the platforms.
Darwin might get cross-compilation for which the continued usage of `stdenv.isDarwin` will get in the way
One example of why this is bad and especially affects compiler packages
https://www.github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/343059
There are too many files to go through manually but a treewide should
get users thinking when they see a `hostPlatform.isX` in a place where it
doesn't make sense.

The nixpkgs-unstable channel's programs.sqlite was used to identify
packages producing exactly one binary, and these automatically added
to their package definitions wherever possible.
stdenv.targetPlatform really shouldn't be used by software that
doesn't generate or manipulate binaries. I reviewed all uses of
targetPlatform outside of pkgs/development/compilers and pkgs/stdenv
and replaced those which weren't involved in something which fits
these criteria.
@the-kenny did a good job in the past and is set as maintainer in many package,
however since 2017-2018 he stopped contributing. To create less confusion
in pull requests when people try to request his feedback, I removed him as
maintainer from all packages.
This will make it easier for people to access old versions.
You can now access attributes like:
- dwarf-fortress_0_44_11
- dwarf-fortress_0_43_05
- etc.
dwarf-therapist: 37.0.0-Hello71 -> 39.0.0
dfhack: 0.43.05-r1 -> 0.44.02-alpha1
cla-theme: 43.05-v23 -> 44.01-v24
phoebus-theme: 43.05c -> 44.02a
There is a new maintained repository for
dwarf-therapist: http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=168411
dfhack is still in alpha, so make backups, if you use it.

A lot of packages are needlessly quoting the homepage meta attribute
(about 1400, 22%), this commit refactors all of those instances.
