Fix build of lbzip2. Depends on #80905.

Things done

  • 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.

ZHF: #80379 @NixOS/nixos-release-managers

This update makes gnulib work even if it is installed into a readonly
location, so some hacks in nixpkgs can be removed.
The release tarball is no longer available at the specified URL, so
building from git. Also, the gnulib in the release tarball was too old
for our recent glibc version.

also did this in #80560
though the updated gnulib sure is nicer than --symlinks --more-symlinks

Could this be backported to 20.03 branch? I really would like to use it for a package!

This is backport of #80560 (since we don't have updated gnulib in 20.03)
and #80906.

Based on 07cf036
