Motivation for this change
This commit fixes #86272. For full description, see the original bug report. It can be summarized as: previously NixOS didn't provide any gcc tools (like gcov, gcc-ar, gcc-ranlib and others).
Things done
I have tested this changes locally on a slightly outdated version (19.09) and now I cherry-picked them on top of master (there was a conflict). I haven't rebuilt master because compilation on my laptop takes days.
