We are migrating packages that meet below requirements:
1. using `callPackage`
2. called path is a directory
3. overriding set is empty (`{ }`)
4. not containing path expressions other than relative path (to
makenixpkgs-vet happy)
5. not referenced by nix files outside of the directory, other
than`pkgs/top-level/all-packages.nix`
6. not referencing nix files outside of the directory
7. not referencing `default.nix` (since it's changed to `package.nix`)
8. `outPath` doesn't change after migration

The indentation stripping semantics of strings are fairly bad and have a
few gotchas where the resulting string has not the intended indentation.
This commit fixes most if not all such instances in Nixpkgs.
I tried to strive a balance between keeping the diff small and
reformatting/refactoring the code to look better. In general,
reformatting should be left to Nixfmt.
Note that this causes a lot of rebuilds by design. All changes need to
be thoroughly vetted and reviewed for correctness. There is no automatic
way to prove correctness.
List of files to fix generated by running
https://gerrit.lix.systems/c/lix/+/2092 on Nixpkgs and looking at the
warnings.
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.

This package has been broken since 24.05 (`pkg_resources` error when
running `toil --help`), and hasn’t built since Python 3.12 became
the default. There have been two major upstream releases since this
package was last updated. I tried to package the newest version, which
drops the boto dependency, but unfortunately it requires obsolete
versions of other Python libraries that we no longer package. Since
it’s been broken for this long anyway and can’t be updated,
let’s drop it for now.
The `mathmore` part of ROOT it the part of ROOT math that depends on the
GNU Scientific Library (GSL). Since the GSL is already in the list of
inputs, it should be harmless to enable this feature set. This will
benefit RooFit in particular, wich uses the numeric integrators from the
GSL that are wrapped in mathmore.
