Motivation for this change

Currently the python package is totally separate from the unicorn-emu package ending up performing almost the same compilation, while actually the "bindings" are really just a subdirectory of the main unicorn source. Re-using the compilation result will allow us to keep the two in sync and should allow more flexibility in creating overridden versions (which I'll have to do when I add unicorn support to the aflplusplus package in #76645).

At the same time I've fixed & enabled unicorn-emu on darwin.

Only reverse dependency rebuilds that fail seem already broken.

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.

@GrahamcOfBorg build pythonPackages.unicorn python3Packages.unicorn

…nicorn-emu

this allows us to easily keep the two in sync and gives a more flexible
result, also add self as co-maintainer.
