server.py tries to launch a matrix_sso_helper binary when connecting to
a homeserver that uses some SSO mechanism instead of plain login and
password, but doesn't have $out/bin in $PATH.
Using substituteInPlace to patch server.py so that the helper process is
started by using its actual filesystem location instead of relying on
$PATH.

matrix.py tries to import its dependencies, and its own code from
$out/${python.sitePackages}, and neither of these worked because
nothing was telling Python where to load that stuff from.
Using patchPythonScript made it so matrix.py could find its
dependencies, but it still wasn't able to find its own code, so that
had to be added to program_PYTHONPATH beforehand so patchPythonScript
would include it as well.

@the-kenny did a good job in the past and is set as maintainer in many package,
however since 2017-2018 he stopped contributing. To create less confusion
in pull requests when people try to request his feedback, I removed him as
maintainer from all packages.

wee-slack now (optionally) depends on a data file called weemoji.json
that allows it to translate between Slack emoji names (like
"slight_smile") and Unicode codepoints. For convenience, the derivation
now installs this file and patches the script so that the user doesn't
need to do any extra configuration to use it.

irc: fix crash when a new message 005 is received with longer nick prefixes
