After final improvements to the official formatter implementation,
this commit now performs the first treewide reformat of Nix files using it.
This is part of the implementation of RFC 166.
Only "inactive" files are reformatted, meaning only files that
aren't being touched by any PR with activity in the past 2 months.
This is to avoid conflicts for PRs that might soon be merged.
Later we can do a full treewide reformat to get the rest,
which should not cause as many conflicts.
A CI check has already been running for some time to ensure that new and
already-formatted files are formatted, so the files being reformatted here
should also stay formatted.

MATE currently uses a scope, but it doesn't actually expose that scope
to callers, which makes overriding packages in overlays quite difficult
as you have to figure out where each package is plumbed through in the
attrset. You end up with contrived expressions like:
mate = super.mate // {
# ...
extraPackages =
(self.lib.remove super.mate.whatever super.mate.extraPackages)
++ [ self.mate.whatever ];
};
This change exposes the scope so that we can use overrideScope' in
overlays instead.
- Add the 'gitUpdater' helper function to update git based packages, using the
'genericUpdater' function.
- Rework argument passing to the `list-git-tags' and 'list-archive-two-level-versions' scripts.
- Replace 'genericUpdater' plus 'list-git-tags' by 'gitUpdater'
Keep only the version atribute in derivations, with the full version
string of the package. This will make it easier to write a script for
automatic updating of the packages using the update-source-version
command from common-updater-scripts.
