openjdk11: enable ZGC on x86_64-linux
The Z Garbage Collector is a concurrent, scalable, low latency garbage collector designed to meet extremely-low-pause-time requirements for small-to-multi-TB heap sizes. ZGC can be enabled with the magical incantation: $ java -XX:+UnlockExperimentalVMOptions -XX:+UseZGC ... Currently, ZGC is only available for x86_64-linux (though a port for aarch64-linux may become available at a future time.) There are also a number of other features that currently aren't present, such as JVMCI integration (meaning compiler tools like Graal which require JVMCI will not work with ZGC enabled.)

foundationdb: rework python bindings, build system
FoundationDB uses Python at build time for some code generation. However, it also has the official python bindings inside the source code too, and the code for the Python bindings has some of it auto-generated at compile time. This made building python packages unattractive: we want to use the source code generated from the FoundationDB build, but we don't want to rebuild it. Previously we would override the 'python' input to the FoundationDB module, but this meant we would do a complete rebuild, as it was a necessary build time dependency, even though the resulting generated code itself would not change. Furthermore, FoundationDB versions < 6.0 don't properly support Python 3 *for the build system*, though the bindings supported it, so that caused build failures. But the first effect is the worst: it meant building separate python2 and python3 packages implied two complete rebuilds of a single FoundationDB version. This meant rather than 3 FDB builds, we'd do 3*N where N = the number of major Python versions we support. Finally, because we did not use pip to generate a wheel that we install with metadata recorded for the installation, the FoundationDB python package couldn't be used as an input to other setup.py-based packages: there would be no recorded metadata in the dist-info folder which would say this is the foundationdb package. This greatly limits its utility. To fix all this, we do a few things: - Apply some patches to fix the build system with Python 3.x for older FoundationDB versions. (This is nice if end-users have overridden the global Python version for some reason.) - Move python directly into nativeBuildInputs, so it is only a build time dependency. - Take the python source code from the ./bindings directory and tar it up use later after the build is done, so we get to keep the generated code. This is the new 'pythonsrc' output from the build. This code doesn't change based on whether or not the input or resulting package is using Python 2 or 3, it's totally deterministic. - The build system also patches up the python source code a little, so it can be installed directly with setup.py (it needs a little stuff that it normally expects the build system to do.) - Rework the python package to a separate file that uses buildPythonPackage directly. Because the source code is already prepared, it needs almost nothing else. Furthermore, this kills the override itself for the foundationdb package, meaning rebuilds are no longer needed. - This package is very simple and just uses foundationdb.pythonsrc as its source input. It also ensures a link to libfdb_c.so can be found by ctypes (using substituteInPlace) - python-packages.nix now just uses callPackage directly. The net effect of this is, most importantly, that python packages do not imply a full rebuild of the server source code: building python2 and python3 packages from a version of FoundationDB now does not need to override the foundationdb python input, reducing the number of needless builds. They instead just run setup.py with the given version as input. The second biggest effect is that wheel metadata is recorded correctly, meaning dependent-python-packages that want to use the FoundationDB bindings e.g. from PyPi should now work fine with buildPythonPackage.
