Rationale:
As of release 1.1.2[1], the configuration ini file supports
declaration of the `[main]` header as an alternative to global
properties by enumerating all sections and mapping each to the
respective parsing function. Global properties will still be parsed
correctly by fnott however generation adds unnecessary complexity to
the module. This commit removes the need for global properties
generation.
Changes:
- Fixed the FIXME at L118.
- Cleaned up unneeded let bindings.
- Changed the generation method to use the `pkgs.formats.ini` from
pkgs-lib instead of the raw `generators` library. This was done for
consistency and clarity as the `pkgs.formats.ini` is still required
for type declaration and uses `generators` internally.
- Removed `global-properties` testcase.
- Updated `example-settings` testcase.

As discussed in this issue:
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/140879
`types.anything` was never meant to be used for arbitrary modules.

The SVG and PNG options were adjusted to account for upstream changes
on the meson build options and additional nanosvg backend for SVG support
independent of cairo.
Until now we merged kernel updates even if no hardened versions were
available yet. On one hand we don't want to delay patch-level updates,
on the other hand users of hardened kernels have frequent breakage now[1].
This change aims to provide a solution this issue:
* The hardened patchset now references the kernel version it's released
for (including a sha256 hash for the fixed-output path of the source
tarball).
* The `hardenedKernelFor`-function doesn't just append hardened patches
now, but also overrides version & src to match the kernel version the
patch was built & tested for.

Now there are a few more folks who should get pinged on kernel changes:
