Graham Christensen a32d7e0c74 dockerTools.buildImage: support impure dates
Because dates are an impurity, by default buildImage will use a static
date of one second past the UNIX Epoch. This can be a bit frustrating
when listing docker images in the CLI:

    $ docker image list
    REPOSITORY   TAG      IMAGE ID       CREATED        SIZE
    hello        latest   08c791c7846e   48 years ago   25.2MB

If you want to trade the purity for a better user experience, you can
set created to now.

    pkgs.dockerTools.buildImage {
      name = "hello";
      tag = "latest";
      created = "now";
      contents = pkgs.hello;

      config.Cmd = [ "/bin/hello" ];
    }

and now the Docker CLI will display a reasonable date and sort the
images as expected:

    $ docker image list
    REPOSITORY   TAG      IMAGE ID       CREATED              SIZE
    hello        latest   de2bf4786de6   About a minute ago   25.2MB

ibus-engines.typing-booster: init at 2.1.1
This package providesa completion input method for faster typing.
See https://mike-fabian.github.io/ibus-typing-booster

Detailed instructions how to activate this IBus engine on your desktop
can be found in the upstream docs: https://mike-fabian.github.io/ibus-typing-booster/documentation.html

A simple VM with the Gnome3 desktop and activated `ibus' looks like
this:

```nix
{
  emojipicker = { pkgs, ... }: {
    services.xserver = {
      enable = true;
      desktopManager.gnome3.enable = true;
      desktopManager.xterm.enable = false;
    };
    users.extraUsers.vm = {
      password = "vm";
      isNormalUser = true;
    };
    i18n.inputMethod.ibus.engines = [
      pkgs.ibus-engines.typing-booster
    ];
    i18n.inputMethod.enabled = "ibus";
    virtualisation.memorySize = 2048;
  };
}
```

Jörg Thalheim 953199fd82 vim-plugins: rewrite updater
A new python script has been added to replace the aged viml-based
updater. The new updater has the following advantages:

- use rss feeds to check for updates quicker
- parallel downloads & better caching
- uses proper override mechanism instead of text substitution
- update generated files in-place instead of having to insert updated plugins manually

Automatically reading `dependencies` from the plugins directory has been
not re-implemented.
This has been mostly been used by Mark Weber's plugins, which seem to
no longer receive regular updates.
This could be implemented in future as required.

weechat: 2.1 -> 2.2; improve package configuration
This aims to make the `weechat` package even more configurable. It
allows to specify scripts and commands using the `configure` function
inside a `weechat.override` expression.

The package can be configured like this:

```
with import <nixpkgs> { };
weechat.override {
  plugins = { availablePlugins, ... }: {
    plugins = builtins.attrValues availablePlugins;

    init = ''
      /set foo bar
      /server add freenode chat.freenode.org
    '';

    scripts = [ "/path/to/script.py" ];
  };
}
```

All commands are passed to `weechat --run-command "/set foo bar;/server ..."`.

The `plugins' attribute is not necessarily required anymore, if it's
sufficient to add `init' commands, the `plugins' will be
`builtins.attrValues availablePlugins' by default.

Additionally the result contains `weechat` and `weechat-headless`
(introduced in WeeChat 2.1) now.

John Ericson e51f736076 top-level: Deprecate top-level {build,host,target}Platform
I don't know when we can/should remove them, but this at least gets
people to stop using them. The preferred alternatives also date back to
17.09 so writing forward-compatable code without extra conditions is
easy.

Beginning with these as they are the least controversial.

Maximilian Bosch eb0207f132 citrix_receiver: document installation pitfalls and extraCerts (#44635)
Since #44522 it's possible to specify custom certificates for the Citrix
receiver. As it took me some time to create a proper setup Citrix can
behave fairly unexpected.

I mostly covered two aspects:

* Don't install Citrix with `nix run`: when `citrix.desktop` is linked
  to $XDG_CONFIG_DIRS, it's possible to start a session directly from the
  browser when loading `.ica` files which makes the usage *way* easier.

* It's possible to add custom certificates using the Citrix wrapper. A
  new store path with the original derivation and the certificates will be
  created and therefore no rebuild of the package is needed when adding
  new certs.

Its last mention was on 2017-09-25. Close to a year.

The CODEOWNERS feature of github, though, fills in the gap in a more
appropriate manner (IMHO).
