In preparation for the deprecation of `stdenv.isX`.
These shorthands are not conducive to cross-compilation because they
hide the platforms.
Darwin might get cross-compilation for which the continued usage of `stdenv.isDarwin` will get in the way
One example of why this is bad and especially affects compiler packages
https://www.github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/343059
There are too many files to go through manually but a treewide should
get users thinking when they see a `hostPlatform.isX` in a place where it
doesn't make sense.

This change switches the xar package from unmaintained fork of the
original project to the Apple Open Source tarball. See also
https://repology.org/project/xar/versions
Since the package is essentially rewritten from scratch, we take an
opportunity and move it to pkgs/by-name/xa/xar (formatted with nixfmt).
We also remove Windows from the supported platforms because even before
this change pkgsCross.mingwW64.xar failed with
xar> configure: error: can not detect the size of your system's uid_t type
Since theey is not active from at least six years.
All the packages on this commit became orphans.

There are files not covered by this commit, because they will be adopted
soon. Namely:
- pkgs/by-name/zs/zsync/package.nix
- pkgs/games/bsdgames/default.nix
- pkgs/misc/ghostscript/default.nix
- pkgs/os-specific/linux/kernel/perf/default.nix

* xdelta: remove meta.homepage
the website is unavailable and the domain is used by a gambling website at the moment
* xdelta: set homepage to GitHub repo

Prior to August 2023, any config.guess generated by autoconf will
include a hardcoded /usr/bin/uname invocation for FreeBSD on any
architecture other than arm. This clearly doesn't work under nix.
We must then update or otherwise patch each old config.guess.
This package distributes shell scripts in /bin. Its shebangs are
always patched to a /nix/store shell, but by default, they are patched to
use the stdenv's shell, which during bootstrap is build in the previous
stdenv. By using runtimeShell from the current stdenv, we can shorten the
FreeBSD bootstrap process significantly.
This was achieved using the following command:
sd 'wrapGAppsHook\b' wrapGAppsHook3 (rg -l 'wrapGAppsHook\b')
And then manually reverted the following changes:
- alias in top-level.nix
- function name in wrap-gapps-hook.sh
- comment in postFixup of at-spi2-core
- comment in gtk4
- comment in preFixup of 1password-gui/linux.nix
- comment in postFixup of qgis/unwrapped-ltr.nix and qgis/unwrapped.nix
- comment in postFixup of telegram-desktop
- comment in postFixup of fwupd
- buildCommand of mongodb-compass
- postFixup of xflux-gui
- comment in a patch in kdePackages.kde-gtk-config and plasma5Packages.kde-gtk-config
- description of programs.sway.wrapperFeatures.gtk NixOS option (manual rebuild)
