Still actively developed and yet stuck on python2. Also marked as
vulnerable and their issue tracker contains yet another security issue
reported in 2021/10 that the upstream hasn't acknowledged yet.
Mind blown.
Closes: #135543, #97274, #97275
Upstream repositories do no longer exists. There has been no release in
a while. - Not a good combination for a network daemon running as root
in C that parses network packets...
udev gained native support to handle FIDO security tokens, so we don't
need a module which only added the now obsolete udev rules.
Fixes: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/76482
Due to the support of the systemd-logind API the udev rules aren't
required anymore which renders this module useless [0].
Note: brightnessctl should now require a working D-Bus setup and a valid
local logind session for this to work.

This module allows root autoLogin, so we would break that for users, but
they shouldn't be using it anyways. This gives the impression like auto
is some special display manager, when it's just lightdm and special pam
rules to allow root autoLogin. It was created for NixOS's testing
so I believe this is where it belongs.
On numerous occasions I have seen users mistake this
module as libinput because it being called "multitouch"
and them being unaware that the actually module they want
is libinput. They then run into several decrepit bugs due
to the completely out-of-date nature of the underlying package.
The underlying package hasn't been changed to an up-to-date
fork in a period of 8 years. I don't consider this to be production quality.
However, I'm not opposed for the module being readded to NixOS
with new packaging, and a better name.
As of 2020-01-09, way-cooler is officially dead:
http://way-cooler.org/blog/2020/01/09/way-cooler-post-mortem.html
hence, remove the package and the module.

A centralized list for these renames is not good because:
- It breaks disabledModules for modules that have a rename defined
- Adding/removing renames for a module means having to find them in the
central file
- Merge conflicts due to multiple people editing the central file
This PR is part of the networking.* namespace cleanup. We feel that
networking.hostConf is rarely used and provides little value compared to
using environment.etc."host.conf" directly.
Provide sensible default: multi on

ssmtp used to be configured via `networking.defaultMailServer` which is
sort of misleading since it provides options only for ssmtp. Other
dumb mail relays like nullmailer have always been living under
services.
The intent of this PR is to align ssmtp's options with those of similar
services. Specifically, two renames have been done:
* Rename `networking.defaultMailHost` to `services.ssmtp`.
* Rename `directDelivery` to `enable` because this is what it basically does.
osquery was marked as broken since April.
If somebody steps up to fix it, we can always revive it from the
histroy, but there's not much value in shipping completely broken things
in current master.

As part of the networking.* name space cleanup, connman should be moved
to services.connman. The same will happen for example with
networkmanager in a separate PR.
This PR is part of the networking.* namespace cleanup.
The Cisco VPN module is currently of limited value since it just creates
config files but does not manage services. The same functionality can be
achieved by using _environment.etc_ instead.
It would be a different situation if we had a full service module. So if
you are annoyed by this change, please consider write a more featureful
module and put its options unter _services.networking.vpnc_.
Note that this change removes options for *Cisco VPN*, not
*networkmanager-vpn*.
