fix: Adding libtool to allow darwin compiles
Libtool seems to be required for mongodb to compile on darwin.
fix: Marking MongoDB as broken on aarch64
fix: Adding libtools to the pkg imports
Update mongodb to 4.0.4
Currently, not providing `name` to `cleanSourceWith` will use the name
of the imported directory. However, a common case is for this to be the
top level of some repository. In that case, the name will be the name of
the checkout on the current machine, which is not necessarily
reproducible across different settings, and can lead to e.g. cache
misses in CI.
This is documented in the comment on `cleanSourceWith`, but this does
not stop it being a subtle trap for users.
There are different tradeoffs in each case:
1. If `cleanSourceWith` defaults to `"source"`, then we may end up with a
user not knowing what directory a source store path corresponds to.
However, it being called "unnamed" may give them a clue that there is a
way for them to name it, and lead them to the definition of the
function, which has a clear `name` parameter.
2. If `cleanSoureWith` defaults to the directory name, then a user may face
occasional loss of caching, which is hard to notice, and hard to track
down. Tracking it down likely requires use of more advanced tools like
`nix-diff`, and reading the source of a lot of nix code.
I think the downside of the status quo is worse.
This is really another iteration of
https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/1305: that led to adding the `name`
argument in the first place, this just makes us use a better default
`name`.
The _module option is added as an internal option set, and it messes up
the results of module evaluations, requiring people to manually filter
_modules out.
If people depend on this, they can still use config._module from inside
the modules, exposing _module as an explicitly declared user option. Or
alternatively with the _module attribute now returned by evalModules.
newlib is the default for most tools when no kernel is provided. Other
exist, but this seems like a safe default.

This helps with troubleshooting exceptions in config values, which were hard
to track down for options with many definitions.
The trace will look like:
error: while evaluating the attribute 'config.foo' at undefined position:
[...]
while evaluating the option `foo':

where the `/home/user/mymod.nix` module is

};
config.foo = builtins.throw "Value error!";
}
In 87a19e9048 I merged staging-next into master using the GitHub gui as intended.
In ac241fb7a5 I merged master into staging-next for the next staging cycle, however, I accidentally pushed it to master.
Thinking this may cause trouble, I reverted it in 0be87c7979. This was however wrong, as it "removed" master.
This reverts commit 0be87c7979.
I merged master into staging-next but accidentally pushed it to master.
This should get us back to 87a19e9048.
This reverts commit ac241fb7a5, reversing
changes made to 76a439239e.
Let’s call them by what they are, option names.
`generators.mkValueStringDefault` is a better value string renderer
than plain `toString`.
Also add docs to all options.
The semantic difference between `encode` and `to` is not apparent.
Users are likely to confuse both functions (which leads to unexpected
error messages about the wrong types). Like in `generators.nix`, all
functions should be prefixed by `to`.
Furthermore, converting to a string depends on the target context. In
this case, it’s a POSIX shell, so we should name it that (compare
`escapeShellArg` in `strings.nix`).
We can later add versions that escape for embedding in e.g. python
scripts or similar.
