Assigning a list of 10 or more elements to an option having the type
`loaOf a` produces a configuration value that is not honoring the
order of the original list. This commit fixes this and a related issue
arising when 10 or more lists are merged into this type of option.

ARM ABIs now have a float field. This is used as a fallback to lessen
our use of `platform.gcc.float`. I didn't know what the MIPs convention
is so I kept using `platform.gcc.float` in that case.
Following legacy packing conventions, `isArm` was defined just for
32-bit ARM instruction set. This is confusing to non packagers though,
because Aarch64 is an ARM instruction set.
The official ARM overview for ARMv8[1] is surprisingly not confusing,
given the overall state of affairs for ARM naming conventions, and
offers us a solution. It divides the nomenclature into three levels:
```
ISA: ARMv8 {-A, -R, -M}
/ \
Mode: Aarch32 Aarch64
| / \
Encoding: A64 A32 T32
```
At the top is the overall v8 instruction set archicture. Second are the
two modes, defined by bitwidth but differing in other semantics too, and
buttom are the encodings, (hopefully?) isomorphic if they encode the
same mode.
The 32 bit encodings are mostly backwards compatible with previous
non-Thumb and Thumb encodings, and if so we can pun the mode names to
instead mean "sets of compatable or isomorphic encodings", and then
voilà we have nice names for 32-bit and 64-bit arm instruction sets
which do not use the word ARM so as to not confused either laymen or
experienced ARM packages.

Otherwise obscure cross-compilations are hampered. `all` breaks all but
the initial derivation (which we can't even write yet) in an open world
setting however, so we really shouldn't have it.

Should have commited on here and on merged master to begin with, but I
didn't, so instead I cherry-pick.

First, we need check against the host platform, not the build platform.
That's simple enough.
Second, we move away from exahustive finite case analysis (i.e.
exhaustively listing all platforms the package builds on). That only
work in a closed-world setting, where we know all platforms we might
build one. But with cross compilation, we may be building for arbitrary
platforms, So we need fancier filters. This is the closed world to open
world change.
The solution is instead of having a list of systems (strings in the form
"foo-bar"), we have a list of of systems or "patterns", i.e. attributes
that partially match the output of the parsers in `lib.systems.parse`.
The "check meta" logic treats the systems strings as an exact whitelist
just as before, but treats the patterns as a fuzzy whitelist,
intersecting the actual `hostPlatform` with the pattern and then
checking for equality. (This is done using `matchAttrs`).
The default convenience lists for `meta.platforms` are now changed to be
lists of patterns (usually a single pattern) in
`lib/systems/for-meta.nix` for maximum flexibility under this new
system.
Fixes#30902
Negative reasoning like `allBut` is a bad idea with an open world of
platforms. Concretely, if we add a new, quite different sort of
platform, existing packages with `allBut` will claim they work on it
even though they probably won't.
lib: rename maintainers-list.nix into maintainers/maintainer-list.nix
(cherry picked from commit 1bd790d613d28d40e5ac999639602768b39d74b3)
The intention is to reduce conflicts during maintenance.
Based on a request by @oxij:
“Can we also rename this file to `maintainers/maintainers-list.nix` while we at
this? Motivation: much saner `git log ./lib`.”
Corrected every handle that had no commits to nixpkgs, manually researched the
correct handles by looking at maintained packages & blames/history on Github.
Based on https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/34842, the
nix-instantiate output was pretty-printed and the validity of the github handles
manually verified, by automatically checking whether the user handles exist on
github (https://github.com/userhandle, status 200 or 404).
Each handle under 5 characters was manually checked (because the collision
probability with non-maintainer accounts is high), each missing entry was
manually researched.
The script used is kept in `maintainers/scripts` as an example of how to work
with the mainainers list through nix’ JSON interface.
All 5 daemon types can be enabled and configured through the module and the module both creates the ceph.conf required but also creates and enables specific services for each daemon, based on the systemd service files that upstream provides.
