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 indentation stripping semantics of strings are fairly bad and have a
few gotchas where the resulting string has not the intended indentation.
This commit fixes most if not all such instances in Nixpkgs.
I tried to strive a balance between keeping the diff small and
reformatting/refactoring the code to look better. In general,
reformatting should be left to Nixfmt.
Note that this causes a lot of rebuilds by design. All changes need to
be thoroughly vetted and reviewed for correctness. There is no automatic
way to prove correctness.
List of files to fix generated by running
https://gerrit.lix.systems/c/lix/+/2092 on Nixpkgs and looking at the
warnings.
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.
```

Done using `grep -rP 'description\s+=\s+"[^"]+[ ]";' | cut -d ':' -f 1 |
xargs -i nvim {}` and sorting the opened files by hand, avoiding
generated packages list
The nixpkgs-unstable channel's programs.sqlite was used to identify
packages producing exactly one binary, and these automatically added
to their package definitions wherever possible.
Adds `saxon_11-he` and `saxon_12-he` attributes for specific versions,
and sets `saxon-he = saxon_12-he`.
Adds an updateScript for the latest versions of Saxon-HE.
