builders. These are redundant now.
* Inlined some trivial builders.
* Removed a few explicit setup-hook creations. This is done
automatically now if setupHook is set.
* Deleted the initscripts package. NixOS doesn't use it anymore.

* klibc: build against the regular kernel headers instead of depending
on a kernel build. This way we don't have to rebuild klibc every
time the kernel changes.
* splashutils 1.3: compile properly with a klibc that uses unpatched
kernel headers.

library.
* Removed devicemapperStatic, e2fsprogsDiet, lvm2Static since they're
redundant (it's what you get when you use pkgsDiet/pkgsStatic).

modules) together in an attribute set returned by the function
"kernelPackagesFor" that takes a kernel as argument. For instance,
kernelPackages_2_6_23 is the result of calling this function with
kernel_2_6_23.
This is necessary in NixOS to make it easier to override the kernel:
it's not enough to just specify a different kernel (via the
boot.kernel option), but you also need matching nvidiaDriver, aufs,
iwlwifi, etc. Having a single attribute set that contains all
kernel-related packages makes this much easier.
* The kernel now has a passthru attribute "features" that allows NixOS
expressions to test whether a kernel has certain features. For
instance, the externel "iwlwifi" kernel module package should only
be built on kernels < 2.6.24, as kernels >= 2.6.24 have iwlwifi
support integrated. So the NixOS expressions can do the test
"kernel.features ? iwlwifi" to see if the iwlwifi package should be
built.
Kernel patches can declare additional features. E.g., the fbsplash
patch adds a "fbSplash" feature.

from the fbsplash kernel patch. So use the actual patched kernel as
an input to klibc, instead of Glibc's kernel headers.
