Description of changes

Clang 15 does not like the fake xpc headers. Use the real ones instead. Doing this no longer causes an infinite recursion because xnu now depends on python3Minimal, which does not include configd support.

Things done
  • Built on platform(s)
    • x86_64-linux
    • aarch64-linux
    • x86_64-darwin
    • aarch64-darwin
  • For non-Linux: Is sandbox = true set in nix.conf? (See Nix manual)
  • Tested, as applicable:
  • Tested compilation of all packages that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nixpkgs-review --run "nixpkgs-review rev HEAD". Note: all changes have to be committed, also see nixpkgs-review usage
  • Tested basic functionality of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • 23.05 Release Notes (or backporting 22.11 Release notes)
    • (Package updates) Added a release notes entry if the change is major or breaking
    • (Module updates) Added a release notes entry if the change is significant
    • (Module addition) Added a release notes entry if adding a new NixOS module
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

Clang 15 does not like the fake xpc headers. Use the real ones instead.
Doing this no longer causes an infinite recursion because xnu now
depends on python3Minimal, which does not include configd support.
The 10.12 SDK uses `xar`, which depends on Python indirectly, which
depends on configd by default. This causes an infinite recuresion when
building configd because it needs SDK headers to build with clang 16.

Fix the infinite recursion by disabling Python support in libxml2 when
building the SDK, and use a minimal Python in the SDK build itself.

@toonn I think I fixed the infinite recursion. The problem with making configd use SDK headers is building the SDK requires Python, which requires configd. I swapped to a minimal Python and overrode xar not to need Python. Unfortunately, this one slipped through the cracks because the gnugrep issue has made it difficult to continue testing on x86_64-darwin.
