Add a new `aarch64-freebsd` double and example system,
then fix include and libc to work.
This is enough to build packages like `hello`,
either static or dynamic.
This is useful for testing nix FreeBSD on a Raspberry Pi.
- remove duplicated patches directory attribute
- make several version number checks >= or <= instead of ==
- add kernel derivation parameters to adjust build config
FreeBSD loves to access system headers for platform-specific builtins.
This is fine on FreeBSD but often breaks when building utilities for
Linux. `BOOTSTRAPPING` disables using most of these headers.
Instead of adding workarounds to every package, just set `BOOTSTRAPPING`
when the host platform is not FreeBSD.
OpenBSD loves hardcoding paths to programs.
The only example of this in `bsd.obj.mk` is `/bin/pwd`,
so `substituteInPlace` is fine.

OpenBSD does not provide a compatibility library for running
build tools on other OSes, but we still need one.
`openbsd.compat` inspired by the `freebsd.compat` package and provides
a header-only compatibility layer that can be used across multiple
openbsd build packages. The source is included in the nixpkgs tree
because it functions similarly to per-package patches.
`openbsd.compatHook` provides a build hook that can be added into
`extraNativeBuildInputs` to include `compat` in the library search
path as a system library.
Some packages require extra hooks or tools.
Rather than overriding all of the nativeBuildInputs
and needing to specify all of them, add a field so that
we just need to specify inputs that are not always required.

We are migrating packages that meet below requirements:
1. using `callPackage`
2. called path is a directory
3. overriding set is empty (`{ }`)
4. not containing path expressions other than relative path (to
makenixpkgs-vet happy)
5. not referenced by nix files outside of the directory, other
than`pkgs/top-level/all-packages.nix`
6. not referencing nix files outside of the directory
7. not referencing `default.nix` (since it's changed to `package.nix`)
8. `outPath` doesn't change after migration
The tool is here: https://github.com/Aleksanaa/by-name-migrate.
OpenBSD's makefs is used to create filesystem images for ramdisks
or VM/install images. The build was fixed with a patch instead of
adding to `compat` because `makefs` relies heavily on unintended
and undocumted transitive header inclusions. Fixing with `compat`
causes hard-to-debug header loops.

This stand package builds all variants of OpenBSD's
`stand` bootloader, including both UEFI and BIOS versions.
This package will likely need changes if we ever support
`aarch64-openbsd`, but that isn't even a target yet.

OpenBSD does not have a tool comparable to FreeBSD's
`mkimg`, but we still need one to create OpenBSD install
and VM images.
FreeBSD's mkimg already does what we need except setting
the correct partition ID, so add a new `openbsd-ufs` type.
rtld contains ld.so, the dynamic linker on OpenBSD.
This package does not include related scripts (ldd and ldconfig),
because they would create a dependency loop.
rtld (run-time ld) is an os-agnostic term for dynamic linker.
For simplicity, also link this into the libc symlinkJoin package
bsd.prog.mk makes sure libc is built before programs that use it by
making all programs depend on core files.
We handle this dependency by referencing libc in cc-wrapper,
but that isn't sufficient to tell bsd.prog.mk that e.g. crtbegin.o
exists.
Clear libc-related variables to fix OpenBSD program build
To avoid adding headers to the SDK it does not have normally
(`libutil.h`), darwin.libutil is not propagated. It must be included as
a build input when it is needed by packages.
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.

For a long time, we've had `crossLibcStdenv`, `*Cross` libc attributes,
and `*bsdCross` pre-libc package sets. This was always bad because
having "cross" things is "not declarative": the naming doesn't reflect
what packages *need* but rather how we *provide* something. This is
ugly, and creates needless friction between cross and native building.
Now, almost all of these `*Cross` attributes are gone: just these are
kept:
- Glibc's and Musl's are kept, because those packages are widely used
and I didn't want to risk changing the native builds of those at this
time.
- generic `libcCross`, `theadsCross`, and friends, because these relate
to the convolulted GCC bootstrap which still needs to be redone.
The BSD and obscure Linux or freestnanding libcs have conversely all
been made to use a new `stdenvNoLibc`, which is like the old
`crossLibcStdenv` except:
1. It usable for native and cross alike
2. It named according to what it *is* ("a standard environment without
libc but with a C compiler"), rather than some non-compositional
jargon ("the stdenv used for building libc when cross compiling",
yuck).
I should have done this change long ago, but I was stymied because of
"infinite recursions". The problem was that in too many cases we are
overriding `stdenv` to *remove* things we don't need, and this risks
cyles since those more minimal stdenvs are used to build things in the
more maximal stdenvs.
The solution is to pass `stage.nix` `stdenvNoCC`, so we can override to
*build up* rather than *tear down*. For now, the full `stdenv` is also
passed, so I don't need to change the native bootstraps, but I can see
this changing as we make things more uniform and clean those up.

Using _Static_assert under -std=c++98 -pedantic-errors will fail in
FreeBSD 14.1. This fixes that, allowing software like gbenchmark to
run its tests against legacy c++ standards. This patch is pending for
FreeBSD 14.2, and should be removed for that release.
