They are not doing anything right now. This is in preparation for their
complete removal from the tree.
Note: several changes that affect the derivation inputs (e.g. removal of
references to stub paths in build instructions) were left out. They will
be cleaned up the next iteration and will require special care.
Note: this PR is a result of a mix of ugly regex (not AST) based
automation and some manual labor. For reference, the regex automation
part was hacked in: https://github.com/booxter/nix-clean-apple_sdk

This reverts commit 65a333600d.
This wasn't tested for correctness with something like fodwatch [0],
and should not have been (self-)merged so quickly, especially without
further review.
It also resulted in the breakage of at least one package [1] (and that's
the one we know of and was caught).
A few packages that were updated in between this commit and this revert
were not reverted back to using `rev`, but other than that, this is a
1:1 revert.

fixes the following traceback when compiling an exercise:
```bash
$ rustlings run
error: linker `cc` not found

= note: No such file or directory (os error 2)
error: could not compile `exercises` (bin "variables1") due to 1 previous error
```
Cargo 1.84.0 seems to have changed the output format of cargo vendor
again, once again invalidating fetchCargoTarball FOD hashes. It's
time to fix this once and for all, switching across the board to
fetchCargoVendor, which is not dependent on cargo vendor's output
format.
It should be possible to reproduce this diff. To do so, get the list
of files changed by this commit, e.g. with git diff --name-only, then
run the following two commands, each with that list of files as their
standard input:
xargs sed -i 's/^\(. *\)\(cargoHash\)\b/\1useFetchCargoVendor = true;\n\1cargoHash/'
cut -d / -f 4 | xargs -n 1 nix-update --version=skip
This will take a long time. It might be possible to parallelize it
using xargs' -P option. I haven't tested it.
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.
