Benefits
- Reduce the derivation closure.
- This reduces rebuilds and makes derivations that use
qemu-utils less susceptible to build errors.
- Includes extra qemu tools that weren't included before.
- Removes fragile binary copying (old qemu-utils impl).
- Can't forget to copy somethat that a binary needs.
- Less custom packaging is better.
Cost
- Adds an 80 second build, but the time is offset by rebuilding
its dependents less.
- The output of qemu-utils goes from ~7 MB to ~40 MB, but it
provides more functionality.
