The old cygwin support used -pc-windows-cygnus as the config. This is
supported by LLVM, but not by GNU. This will change it to -pc-cygwin,
which is more generally supported.
Because the kernel is now 'cygwin' rather than 'windows', isWindows will
return false. There are lots of different reasons isWindows is used in
nixpkgs, but in my experience they often have to do with posix
compatibility and don't apply to cygwin.

It was voluntarily retired. Still, it's used in some projects.
Specifically, openvswitch ships some files under lib/sflow*[ch] under
this license.
This license will be added to both openvswitch and ovn packages (the
latter embeds openvswitch libraries, including sflow).
Allows marking an option as invisible, without excluding its sub-options.
In practice, this is similar to `visible = true; internal = true;`,
however it is more explicit and less reliant on implementation details.
renamed `mac` to `octets` in hextets combining step for better var
naming; rephrased error message to provide a hint of expected format;
replaced `Arguments` with `Inputs` in docstring; added more test cases
for invalid hex digits; added comments in hextets combining step;
At the scale of Nixpkgs, actively maintaining a package is only possible
with integration into CI. To be able to be pinged for review requests,
the maintainer must have a GitHub handle, which:
- Leads to an invitation to the NixOS org, which comes with additional
privileges.
- Allows to request the maintainer for review as a member of this org.
- Automatically requests the maintainer for review in CI.
Currently, the GitHub handle is not strictly enforced. This leads to
some new maintainers accidentally forgetting to set these. We can avoid
these mistakes and enforce them via CI.
The GPL-2.0-with-classpath-exception is deprecated in spdx and the exception Classpath-exception-2.0 should be used instead.
Other Classpath license hace also benn replaced with it.
