This is no longer used as we only differentiate between stable and
ungoogled-chromium, which we already track in the "ungoogled" boolean.
Beta and dev channels are gone for good.
It's been a year since their removal in 59719f787e.
There is, however, an additional channel mapping in nixos/tests/chromium
but that one is independent from this one here.

As mentioned in #305146, keeping LLVM 12 is a source of pain because it
is the only version to be built from individual release tarball instead
of the LLVM monorepo. This commit makes LLVM 12 start from the monorepo
as well, simplifying all common LLVM expressions in the process.
With #347887, some quirks in the expressions for LLVM <14 were ironed
out, so building LLVM through from the monorepo is quite simple now.
- Most expressions only required minor changes, mostly removing the
special casing for `sourceRoot`.
- The patch lists from llvm/12/default.nix were ported to
common/default.nix. This only required a few extra conditionals which
could be reduced via a rebuild also involving other LLVM versions.
Outstanding tasks of little urgency have been noted in TODO comments.
I have verified that the patch lists stay the same for all packages
except LLVM where merely the order changes. An extra set of eyes
is appreciated, of course.
- clang: The expression was reworked to use the same symlink location
for clang-tools-extra for all versions including LLVM 12. This
required adjusting the ad hoc patching of the clangd cmake files
slightly.
- libunwind: We no longer need to make the libcxx sources available
manually. We can rely on the monorepo source instead.
- lld: We no longer need to make the libunwind sources available manually.
- llvm: We no longer need to make the polly sources available manually
- On Darwin, we need to bypass CMake's C++ compiler for libcxx and
libunwind now. It isn't a 100% clear why, probably because we've
started to use Darwin's bootstrapStdenv for libcxx in the common
expression compared to LLVM 12 on master [1].
The reordering of flags for wasm causes a rebuild for some packages
like firefox, but this should be tolerable on staging.

This will be EOL at the end of November, so there's little reason to
keep it in 24.11[1]. As discussed, we'd like to keep it for as long as
possible to make sure there's a state in nixpkgs that has the latest
minor of postgresql_12 available with the most recent CVEs fixed for
people who cannot upgrade[2].
This aspect has been made explicit in the manual now for the next .11
release.
During the discussions it has been brought up that if people just do
`services.postgresql.enable = true;` and let the code decide the
postgresql version based on `system.stateVersion`, there's a chance that
such EOL dates will be missed. To make this harder, a warning will now
be raised when using the stateVersion-condition and the oldest still
available major is selected.
Additionally regrouped the postgresql things in the release notes to
make sure these are all shown consecutively. Otherwise it's a little
hard to keep track of all the changes made to postgresql in 24.11.
