Motivation for this change

Qemu will only install desktop files on "system" builds,
if you build qemu for emulation (eg: aarch64-linux-user) as
it is used for nix emulated builds, build will fail with error:
rm: cannot remove '/nix/store/nzwv6nkzidyp6vvclip70a5kw1vlvwpp-qemu-5.2.0/share/applications/qemu.desktop': No such file or directory

As it is not installed.

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.
