A few changes needed here:
- We don’t want to guess what our platform is. We can patch location
and targetdir to not put things in an unpredictable directory.
- Make premake4 a native build input.
- Set the premakefile variable.
Adds a configure phase for packages using premake.
premakeConfigurePhase runs the correct premake version for the premake
you are using (see premake_cmd).
Although the tests are passing locally, it seems as the excessive
filesystem usage causes several build failures and timeouts in the Hydra
and OfBorg infrastructure:
* https://hydra.nixos.org/build/84374861 (python3 on linux.x86_64)
* https://hydra.nixos.org/build/84368459 (python2 on linux.x86_64)
Some of these tests are failing after several seconds though, but I
couldn't identify a pattern and I'm not overly surprised that a FTP
library has impure tests. However the API seems to be usable in a Python
{2,3} environment, so it should be safe to use even with disabled tests.

b Batch mode. Optimized for huge recursive copies, but less secure if a crash happens during the copy.
```
It seems the "less secure if a crash happens" does not need a crash to
happen.
With batch mode:
```
/[...]/.
Start (0) does not point to parent (___)
```
For pretty much everything copied in.
Without batch mode, everything passes `fsck`.
See #51150

Some trivial builders use the name attr to choose the exec name
produced. For example nixos-install,
nixos-install = makeProg {
name = "nixos-install";
src = ./nixos-install.sh;
nix = config.nix.package.out;
path = makeBinPath [ nixos-enter ];
};
When cross compiling, this puts the prog in,
/bin/nixos-install-powerpc64le-unknown-linux-gnu
When separateDebugInfo = true & !stdenv.hostPlatform.isLinux, we
always gave an error. There is no reason to do this. Instead, just
don’t add separate debug info when we aren’t on Linux.
