Various packages under minimal-bootstrap explicitly use the musl gcc
wrapper (especially the *-static packages).
In #494106, the desire is to allow these packages to run on a host
platform which may differ from the bootstrap seed platform. That host
platform may be a non-musl platform, and furthermore musl may not even
be available on the desired host architecture.
This change aims to make the packages more generic wrt libc. It is
extracted out of #494106.
Install the single bzip2 binary with bunzip2 and bzcat symlinks instead of duplicate binaries, and skip unused recovery tools, headers, libraries, scripts, and man pages. The smoke test covers compression plus both decompression entry points.
Size impact against upstream/staging:
- bzip2-static closure: 0.665 MiB -> 0.159 MiB (-0.505 MiB)

This commit was created by a combination of scripts and tools:
- an ast-grep script to prefix things in meta with `lib.`,
- a modified nixf-diagnose / nixf combination to remove unused `with
lib;`, and
- regular nixfmt.

After final improvements to the official formatter implementation,
this commit now performs the first treewide reformat of Nix files using it.
This is part of the implementation of RFC 166.
Only "inactive" files are reformatted, meaning only files that
aren't being touched by any PR with activity in the past 2 months.
This is to avoid conflicts for PRs that might soon be merged.
Later we can do a full treewide reformat to get the rest,
which should not cause as many conflicts.
A CI check has already been running for some time to ensure that new and
already-formatted files are formatted, so the files being reformatted here
should also stay formatted.
