Motivation for this change

The previous hash was too short and caused evaluation-time errors like:

invalid SRI hash 'sha256-AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA='

Additionally, since the fact that this is broken implies that nobody could have been using it, "SRI" is a bit of a vague and obscure term, fakeSriHash would be somewhat of a mouthful, and the relevant fetcher parameters are just called hash, rename it to fakeHash.

(Does anyone know why this is in lib/deprecated.nix?)

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.

The previous hash was too short and caused evaluation-time errors like:

    invalid SRI hash 'sha256-AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA='

Additionally, since the fact that this is broken implies that nobody
could have been using it, "SRI" is a bit of a vague and obscure term,
`fakeSriHash` would be somewhat of a mouthful, and the relevant fetcher
parameters are just called `hash`, rename it to `fakeHash`.
