Ihar Hrachyshka 567e8dfd8e treewide: clean up 'meta = with' pattern
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.

longDescription = ''
The SSH agent is usually spawned by running eval $(ssh-agent), however this
spawns a new SSH agent at every invocation. This project provides an
ssh-agent wrapper called ssh-agents that is capable of spawning an SSH
agent and caching the environment variables for later invocation.
Features
- One SSH agent across all terminals
- Add all un-encrypted SSH keys to the agent upon spawning. Please note
that encrypted SSH keys can only be added via ssh-add after having
started the agent.
- Ability to have different keys in different agents for security purposes.
- Multiple SSH agents
- To use multi-SSH agents, start ssh agent with the --name flag. The
given name is expected to be a folder under ~/.ssh/name containing the
keys to include in the agent.
