The build.rs script shipped with evdev-sys attempts to detect cross
compilation and uses a completely different codepath which does a
`git fetch` inside the build script. This doesn't work in nixpkgs.
This PR adds a `touch libevdev/.git` to trick the `build.rs` into
thinking that it is not necessary to do a `git fetch`.
Thanks to @figsoda for finding this more-elegant solution to the
problem (my original solution needed to patch `build.rs`):
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/224893#pullrequestreview-1373809617
Tested on:
- [x] `aarch64-linux` (cross from `x86_64-linux`)
Also begin to start work on cross compilation, though that will have to
be finished later.
The patches are based on the first version of
https://reviews.llvm.org/D99484. It's very annoying to do the
back-porting but the review has uncovered nothing super major so I'm
fine sticking with what I've got.
Beyond making the outputs work, I also strove to re-sync the packages,
as they have been drifting pointlessly apart for some time.

Other misc notes, highly incomplete
- lvm-config-native and llvm-config are put in `dev` because they are
tools just for build time.
- Clang no longer has an lld dep. That was introduced in
db29857eb3, but if clang needs help
finding lld when it is used we should just pass it flags / put in the
resource dir. Providing it at build time increases critical path
length for no good reason.

A note on `nativeCC`:
`stdenv` takes tools from the previous stage, so:
1. `pkgsBuildBuild`: `(?1, x, x)`
2. `pkgsBuildBuild.stdenv.cc`: `(?0, ?1, x)`
while:
1. `pkgsBuildBuild`: `(?1, x, x)`
2. `pkgsBuildBuild.targetPackages`: `(x, x, ?2)`
3. `pkgsBuildBuild.targetPackages.stdenv.cc`: `(?1, x, x)`
This makes the command ‘nix-env -qa -f. --arg config '{skipAliases =
true;}'’ work in Nixpkgs.

- qtikz: use libsForQt5.callPackage
This ensures we get the right poppler.

docbook5_xsl -> docbook_xsl_ns
