How libinput tries to create /etc changed in upstream commit
05501cd34f9c ("meson: use install_emptydir to create directory"),
so we have to update our sed expression.
This was missed in when libinput was updated in Nixpkgs due to a Nix
bug[1], which made the sandbox's /etc writeable.

checkInputs used to be added to nativeBuildInputs. Now we have
nativeCheckInputs to do that instead. Doing this treewide change allows
to keep hashes identical to before the introduction of
nativeCheckInputs.
- format with nixpkgs-fmt
- use more conventional attribute ordering
- remove non-existent file from patchShebang args
- remove unnecessary if from sphinx-build binding (Nix is lazy so we do not need to null it when not used)

pkgconfig was aliased in 2018, however, it remained in
all-packages.nix due to its wide usage. This cleans
up the remaining references to pkgs.pkgsconfig and
moves the entry to aliases.nix.
python3Packages.pkgconfig remained unchanged because
it's the canonical name of the upstream package
on pypi.
This reverts commit c778945806.
I believe this is exactly what brings the staging branch into
the right shape after the last merge from master (through staging-next);
otherwise part of staging changes would be lost
(due to being already reachable from master but reverted).
Running subcommands like `libinput measure` requires python and some python modules.
I previously added the dependencies in [1] but [2] accidentally moved them to checkInputs so they are not available at runtime by patchShebangs (especially since tests are disabled).
Additionally, the tools were ported from evdev python module to python-libevdev in libinput 1.14, which was missed [3] during upgrade.
Finally, other python modules are needed so let's add them as well.

If the user wants to configure libinput locally (e.g. to tune
touchpad sensitivity) the advertised[*] mechanism to do this
upstream is by adding a file /etc/libinput/local-overrides.quirks
Add --sysconfdir option to the libinput configurePhase so that we
build libinput to look for the file there instead of in libinput's
store path
[*] can't quite claim it as "supported", but it's certainly the
mechanism that's publically described. See
https://wayland.freedesktop.org/libinput/doc/latest/device-quirks.html
He prefers to contribute to his own nixpkgs fork triton.
Since he is still marked as maintainer in many packages
this leaves the wrong impression he still maintains those.
