The src points to the obsidiansystems repo as it has the ghcjs ported from
8.10.5 to 8.10.7, and a bunch of other fixes (#812, #811, #809)
(cherry picked from commit ba25b274f4bb0240a8ffa71e41b55712930af3d8)
Modified the stm_2_5_0_1 -> stm_2_5_0_0
The 8.4.x version of ghcjs hasn't compiled successfully
in ages, so I reckon it's unused. The even older code
in pkgs/development/compilers/ghcjs is unused entirely;
it's not even referenced in Nixpkgs.
We keep the latest minor release of each one of the last 3 major releases,
which currently are GHC versions 8.2.2, 8.4.4, and 8.6.1. We also have
ghc-HEAD, but this doesn't count.
Dropping these compilers implied that we have to drop the corresponding
versions of ghcjs, too. We can also drop a shitload of obsolete compiler
patches that newer versions no longer need.
At some point, we can probably simplify the generic builder, too.
enableShared in generic-builder.nix should default to what the GHC
compiler was compiled with. Add a passthru to all of the GHC compilers
to hold the value of enableShared. If enableShared is not set in the
GHC we just use false as the default value for enableSharedLibraries.
Note: I may have missed some compilers. Only GHC & GHCJS are covered
by this commit but this shouldn’t break evaluation of anything else.
This is needed for some cabal2nix stuff in getting the version.
Previously we had left out the version but apparently this can cause
problems in some scenarios.

* 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
