Motivation for this change

I wanted to run a docker-machine VM based on the xyhve hypervisor (which uses the built-in hypervisor in macOS). However, the currently packaged version did not support file system sharing, so I enabled lib9p. I then figured out that it is currently broken and my upstream pull request is pending.

Things done
  • Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS linux)
  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • macOS
    • other Linux distributions
  • Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nix-review --run "nix-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Determined the impact on package closure size (by running nix path-info -S before and after)
  • Ensured that relevant documentation is up to date
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

remove explicit dependencies, upstream vendorizes them properly
The lib9p library for host-guest file sharing in xhyve needs to be built separately.
File modes are not properly translated from L9P to host values.
Instead, they are assumed to be identical, which is wrong on macOS.
