The ability to specify "-drive if=scsi" has been removed in QEMU version
2.12 (introduced in 3e3b39f173).

So whenever the diskInterface is "scsi" we use the new way to specify
the drive and fall back to the deprecated way for the time being. The
reason why I'm not using the new way for "virtio" and "ide" as well is
because there is no simple generic way anymore to specify these.
This also turns the type of the virtualisation.qemu.diskInterface option
to be an enum, so the user knows which values are allowed but we can
also make sure the right value is provided to prevent typos.
I've tested this against a few non-disk-related NixOS VM tests but also
the installer.grub1 test (because it uses "ide" as its drive interface),
the installer.simple test (just to be sure it still works with
"virtio") and all the tests in nixos/tests/boot.nix.
In order to be able to run the grub1 test I had to go back to
8b1cf100cd (which is a known commit where
that test still works) and apply the QEMU update and this very commit,
because right now the test is broken.
Apart from the tests here in nixpkgs, I also ran another[1] test in
another repository which uses the "scsi" disk interface as well (in
comparison to most of the installer tests, this one actually failed
prior to this commit).
All of them now succeed.

The usb_add and usb_del monitor commands have been removed in QEMU
version 2.12 (introduced in 3e3b39f173).

So we're doing exactly that and the udisks2 test now works again.

Darling has a case conflict which means that its src hash will be
different between case sensitive and case insensitive file systems.
This is not ideal and the only way around it is basically to remove
the offending files from the output. I use fetchzip here to do that
but I hope there is a better fix available eventually.
I'm not sure why 024b501907 used -q 0
because even netcat-openbsd has the -N flag which IMO is the better way
to shutdown the socket on EOF.
Our default netcat implementation has changed once again[1] in
3c3b82234a and we're now using LibreSSL's
implementation, which doesn't have a -q flag.
See https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/39634 for the pull request
introducing the switch.

I still feel weird about doing this because it seems a little hacky
but this was requested by @Mic92 and seems understandable to not want
to mix up libressl outputs with netcat stuff.
As reported in #39676 the build broke because of ca52152 as the bump of
`pythonPackages.botocore` to 1.10.9 clashed with the wanted dependencies
in `awscli`.
In order to reduce the risk of accidental bugs because of loosened
version constraints I bumped the AWS CLI to `1.15.10` which depends on
`botocore@1.10` as well.
Fixes#39676
The Nix expression here is really hard to read with multiple (and
unnecessarily) nested lets and it also generates attribute names based
on the derivation generated by makeTest, which will result in these
attribute names:
* vm-test-run-predictableInterfaceNames
* vm-test-run-predictableInterfaceNames-with-networkd
* vm-test-run-unpredictableInterfaceNames
* vm-test-run-unpredictableInterfaceNames-with-networkd
With the refactor the attribute names are now:
* predictable
* predictableNetworkd
* unpredictable
* unpredictableNetworkd
So now the code is even shorter and IMHO slightly more readable.
