This is essentially the same fix as #161740, except not just for macOS.
The `dnspython` build was failing on Linux with a certificate
verification failure just like in #161740:
```ShellSession
$ nix build nixpkgs#python3Packages.dnspython --rebuild
error: builder for '/nix/store/c1v553fzq3yybsd0lm398qf87jmy47qd-python3.10-dnspython-2.3.0.drv' failed with exit code 1;
last 10 log lines:
>
> /nix/store/iw1vmh509hcbby8dbpsaanbri4zsq7dj-python3-3.10.10/lib/python3.10/ssl.py:1342: SSLCertVerificationError
…
```
… and this change fixes that build failure.
checkInputs used to be added to nativeBuildInputs. Now we have
nativeCheckInputs to do that instead. Doing this treewide change allows
to keep hashes identical to before the introduction of
nativeCheckInputs.

Since the last time I ran this script, the Repology API changed, so I had to
adapt the script used in the previous PR. The new API should be more robust, so
overall this is a positive (no more grepping the error messages for our relevant
data but just a nice json structure).
Here's the new script I used:
```sh
curl https://repology.org/api/v1/repository/nix_unstable/problems \
| jq -r '.[] | select(.type == "homepage_permanent_https_redirect") | .data | "s@\(.url)@\(.target)@"' \
| sort | uniq | tee script.sed
find -name '*.nix' | xargs -P4 -- sed -f script.sed -i
```
I will also add this script to `maintainers/scripts`.
The `buildPython*` function computes name from `pname` and `version`.
This change removes `name` attribute from all expressions in
`pkgs/development/python-modules`.
While at it, some other minor changes were made as well, such as
replacing `fetchurl` calls with `fetchPypi`.
