I hope this will improve the situation on aarch64-linux.
I don't think it could make anything worse.
Recent staging-next timeouts:

For now let's not touch meta.timeout, as there's less consensus and the
setting seems less reliable in practice, too.
This hack reduces the source derivation size from 3.7G to 450M by
removing the src/3rparty submodule .git directory and compressing
the whole directory. This is needed to avoid the 2G limit on hydra.
Without a number of important Qt libraries (all of those with a "dev"
derivation) are not included in the bundled package, and qmake can't
find them.
Fixes#110199
The default 10h timeout caused the cancellation of builds on
aarch64-linux builders.
Perhaps counterintuitively, this wastes resources because it
requires a restart, but never completes.

This reverts commit 8f69090ba5c031f18f70f5b79c9666bbd600ea91, reversing
changes made to e6a852714ad97418e05d0818fc58ad3378decef7.
In 13e3ec0d58a510742bb12f26d7c451ca4c94ce25 this was already addressed
The qmake hook sets its own `CONFIG+=debug` or `CONFIG+=release` depending on
how `qtbase` was built. We no longer rely on using the custom deriver for this
feature.
The `platform` field is pointless nesting: it's just stuff that happens
to be defined together, and that should be an implementation detail.
This instead makes `linux-kernel` and `gcc` top level fields in platform
configs. They join `rustc` there [all are optional], which was put there
and not in `platform` in anticipation of a change like this.
`linux-kernel.arch` in particular also becomes `linuxArch`, to match the
other `*Arch`es.
The next step after is this to combine the *specific* machines from
`lib.systems.platforms` with `lib.systems.examples`, keeping just the
"multiplatform" ones for defaulting.
continuation of #109595
pkgconfig was aliased in 2018, however, it remained in
all-packages.nix due to its wide usage. This cleans
up the remaining references to pkgs.pkgsconfig and
moves the entry to aliases.nix.
python3Packages.pkgconfig remained unchanged because
it's the canonical name of the upstream package
on pypi.
