LTO is disabled during bootstrap to keep the bootstrap tools small and
avoid unnecessary LLVM rebuilds, but is enabled in the final stdenv
stage and should be usable by normal packages.
Source master rebase of my [PR #34].
Eventually, we might consider doing something for GNU binutils too, in
order that we switch (the normal) ld-wrapper to always use this to
leverage ld to resolve libraries, rather than faking it in bash.
[PR #34]: https://github.com/tpoechtrager/cctools-port/pull/34
Certain tools, e.g. compilers, are customarily prefixed with the name of
their target platform so that multiple builds can be used at once
without clobbering each other on the PATH. I was using identifiers named
`prefix` for this purpose, but that conflicts with the standard use of
`prefix` to mean the directory where something is installed. To avoid
conflict and confusion, I renamed those to `targetPrefix`.
- Give cctools a dev output for the headers
- Update Libsystem to grab the headers from that dev output
- Don't include the headers in Darwin binutils, just as GNU Binutils no
longer does.
* pkgs: refactor needless quoting of homepage meta attribute
A lot of packages are needlessly quoting the homepage meta attribute
(about 1400, 22%), this commit refactors all of those instances.

commit
* Fixed some instances
We want platform triple prefixes and suffixes on derivation names to
be used consistently. The ideom this commit strives for is
- suffix means build != host, i.e. cross *built* packages. This is
already done.
- prefix means build != target, i.e. cross tools. This matches the
tradition of such binaries themselves being prefixed to disambiguate.]
Binutils and cctools, as build tools, now use the latter
- No more *Cross duplication for binutils on darwin either.
`cctools_cross` is merged into plain `cctools`, so `buildPackages`
chains alone are used to disambiguate.
- Always use a mashup of cctools and actual GNU Binutils as `binutils`.
Previously, this was only done in the native case as nobody had
bothered to implement the masher in the cross case. Implemented it
basically consisted of extending the wrapper to deal with prefixed
binaries.
It's a long build and generally painful to split into smaller commits,
so I apologize for lumping many changes into one commit but this is far
easier.
There are still several outdated parts of the darwin stdenv but these
changes should bring us closer to the goal.
