The library does not depend on stdenv, that stdenv exposes lib is
an artifact of the ancient origins of nixpkgs.

I didn’t run the generator since it takes quite a while, but it should
be automatically done the next time somebody updates a package.

Motivation for this change
Things done
  • Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS linux)
  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • macOS
    • other Linux distributions
  • Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nixpkgs-review --run "nixpkgs-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Determined the impact on package closure size (by running nix path-info -S before and after)
  • Ensured that relevant documentation is up to date
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

I think the generator should be run to avoid confusing the next person who runs it.

I've always wondered why it's exposed in two places.
Would it make sense to do this change treewide?
