Yesterday we had a discussion about several Hydra-related problems in the #nixos
IRC channel[1], as a result a lot of stalled PRs were merged.
I think that we want to use the latest Hydra now as it contains lots of
new fixes and folks mentioned that they want to use a self-hosted
Hydra, so they probably use the `nixpkgs` package rather than the
expressions from `NixOS/hydra`.
Simply moving to 2019-03-18 should be fine for now as Hydra doesn't have
a release model.

Also made changes to lua package generation system to account for packages like cqueues
that have one version per lua interpreter.
The csv file also accepts comments now.
Whenever we create scripts that are installed to $out, we must use runtimeShell
in order to get the shell that can be executed on the machine we create the
package for. This is relevant for cross-compiling. The only use case for
stdenv.shell are scripts that are executed as part of the build system.
Usages in checkPhase are borderline however to decrease the likelyhood
of people copying the wrong examples, I decided to use runtimeShell as well.

Since it'short, NEWS is reproduced below
------
* NEWS *
build: Add new --enable-install-elfh option.
Do NOT use this for system installs (it overrides glibc elf.h).
backends: riscv improved core file and return value location support.
Fixes CVE-2019-7146, CVE-2019-7148, CVE-2019-7149, CVE-2019-7150,
CVE-2019-7664, CVE-2019-7665
The component `hydra-evaluator` requires `pool.hh` from Nix which isn't
provided by Nix 1.x and thus fails with the following error in this
case:
```
hydra-evaluator.cc:3:10: fatal error: pool.hh: No such file or directory
#include "pool.hh"
^~~~~~~~~
compilation terminated.
make[3]: *** [Makefile:443: hydra_evaluator-hydra-evaluator.o] Error 1
```
As the commit is from 2016 and fairly hard to revert for Nix 1.x
support, it's easier to drop that.
This has been tested with fixed perl-bindings for Nix1 as done in #55146.
* lua: generate packages from luarocks
* luarocks-nix: update
* removed packages already available in nixpkgs
* adressing reviews
update script can now accept another csv file as input with -c
* Remove obsolete comment
Package attrs should map to the pname. It's confusing otherwise.
pkg-config is also the name used by most distributions:
Debian, Homebrew, Guix, OpenSuse
other distributions like FreeBSD ports, Fedora and Arch Linux call it
"pkgconf"
Waiting a few releases to make a tree-wide change to make it easier to
back-port things.
