Since Nix 2 is now the stable Nix version, we can use closureInfo
which simplifies the Nix database initialisation (size and hash are
included in the "dump").
Upstream changes:
- Fixed: Don't fail when building the manual with AsciiDoc and xmllint.
- Fixed: Some long options (--rule, --rules-file and --rules-data) were
ignored.
- Fixed: Manpage formatting is now more consistent.
- Added: A new --version command line argument for showing version
information.
With the new upstream release recommending to use AsciiDoc to generate
the manpage, I also switched to AsciiDoc instead of Asciidoctor. The
resulting manpage looks better in some ways (for example when definition
lists are used).
I also added an installCheckPhase to ensure that the manpage exists in
the resulting store path.

Pull request #50246 was merged a bit too quickly and it was supposed to
fix libredirect on Darwin. However it still failed on Darwin and this
was missed by the person merging the pull request.
The reason this was failing was that there is no __xstat* on Darwin.
So I'm adding a wrapper for stat() as well as it works on Darwin and it
still doesn't hurt on GNU/Linux.

This is just a sanity check on whether the library correctly wraps the
syscalls and it's using the "true" executable for posix_spawn() and
execv().
The installCheckPhase is not executed if we are cross-compiling, so this
shouldn't break cross-compilation.
One thing I'm not actually sure is whether ${coreutils}/bin/true is
universally available on all the platforms, nor whether all the
functions we use in the test are available, but we can still fix that
after we've found out about that.

This is to make sure we get the correct shared library suffix of the
target platform. While for example on Darwin it would even work with the
hardcoded .so prefix it's IMHO a bit nicer to have the actual native
extension.

The library can be used also on Darwin using it like this:
NIX_REDIRECTS='foo=bar' \
DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES=${libredirect}/lib/libredirect.so \
DYLD_FORCE_FLAT_NAMESPACE=1 \
some_program
So let's actually not hardcade gcc and add Darwin to meta.platforms.
No other changes seem to be required.
