with structuredAttrs lists will be bash arrays which cannot be exported
which will be a issue with some patches and some wrappers like cc-wrapper
this makes it clearer that NIX_CFLAGS_COMPILE must be a string as lists
in env cause a eval failure
This reverts commit a9e6a5c1bc.
commit 8c80bd08b7
("build-support/cc-wrapper: pass in non-existent --sysroot= to untangle
from libc") was reverted. We can drop the workaround.
`ipxe` build broke after https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/210004
where we started dropping default libc include path and switched to
`-idirafter` way of specifying libc headers.
Unfortunately the way it's implemented it injects `-idirafter` after
user's flags, not before. That allows users to inject their paths before
libc include paths, not after (as it would notmally happen).
The change works it around for `ipxe` by pulling `-idirafter` libc flags
before user's flags.
iPXE does not make stable releases[1]. The tag we were using was an
anomoly[2], and is from 2020.
The geniso script has been replaced with a generic genfsimg script
that works differently. There are no longer variables we can set to
tell it where to find isolinux.bin or ldlinux.c32, so we have to patch
the script. It'll look in the same place for both files.
The --preserve=mode modification doesn't seem to be necessary any more
— when it was introduced in 4d7bea7e5e ("ipxe: fix ISO build"), it
was required to make a working ISO with an embedded script. But my
ISO with an embedded script now works fine without that change.

For example BANNER_TIMEOUT can be overriden like:
```
ipxe.overrideArgs(old: {
enableOptions = old.enableOptions ++ [ "BANNER_TIMEOUT 100" ];
});
```

According to https://repology.org/repository/nix_unstable/problems, we have a
lot of packages that have http links that redirect to https as their homepage.
This commit updates all these packages to use the https links as their
homepage.
The following script was used to make these updates:
```
curl https://repology.org/api/v1/repository/nix_unstable/problems \
| jq '.[] | .problem' -r \
| rg 'Homepage link "(.+)" is a permanent redirect to "(.+)" and should be updated' --replace 's@$1@$2@' \
| sort | uniq > script.sed
find -name '*.nix' | xargs -P4 -- sed -f script.sed -i
```
imgtrust is needed to run netboot.xyz scripts.
ping is useful for testing network settings.
Also add HTTP option for clarity (it's already being built).
