Motivation for this change

Closes #61725 and reverts #60994
pstree runs on all Unixes whereas psmisc is Linux-only (and BSD) but not Darwin-compatible

cc @lilyball @thefloweringash

Things done
  • Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS)
  • 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 nix-review --run "nix-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)
  • Assured whether relevant documentation is up to date
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

This reverts commit 4f8bf68.

Reason: psmisc is Linux-platforms only
Previous first URL was gone ;
+ refactor
+ enhance meta (homepage, license, maintainer)
+ define priority wrt psmisc

Would it be reasonable to leave a note in the package acknowledging that it's abandonware but stating that we're keeping it around to support non-linux platforms?

Well the last source is from 2015 and the homepage is still around, so for now I guess it's "alive enough".
I also added myself as maintainer as to remind me to check on it later.
