This requires some small changes in the stdenv, then working around the
weird choice LLVM made to hardcode @rpath in its install name, and then
lets us remove a ton of annoying workaround hacks in many of our Go
packages. With any luck this will mean less hackery going forward.
* pkgs: refactor needless quoting of homepage meta attribute
A lot of packages are needlessly quoting the homepage meta attribute
(about 1400, 22%), this commit refactors all of those instances.

For some reason I haven't been able to figure out, sift does not build on OSX.
I think it is because sift uses cgo for some of its functionality which you can
see here:
https://github.com/svent/sift/blob/master/matching_cgo.go#L23
The error which hydra found (and is reproducible on OSX) can be seen here:
https://hydra.nixos.org/build/37169149
Ideally I would like to get sift building on OSX, however my nix-fu is weak.
Any suggestions are welcome. In the meantime I would like to get sift into one
of the release channels for Linux where it works fine.
