Announced in [1], versioned tarballs allow to make sure that a
specific version is fetched. This does not guarantee that all previous
versions are retained on the main mirrors.
Logically, we would want to first try to download versioned tarballs
from any mirror and only then try the unversioned ones. But right now
we only have two mirrors and only some of the tarballs are versioned
in texlive-2019, so the order is changed to not hammer the weak
tug.org mirror.

The biber package is now at 2.14, but TextBibTeX is still required.
Few changes were needed for newly introduced scripts-extra path. This
broke some of our old tricks which were relying on having writable
script directories. The changes to the script locations made buildEnv
create symlinks to the script directories instead of directories of
symlinks to scripts. The changes to texlinks.sh and texlive/TeXLive
perl path were made because of this.
The shell script doesn't work very well in non-GNU environments like
darwin. This provides an implementation that uses just a single GNU tool
- gawk, thus reduces number of points of failure.
The `bash` pragma gives syntax highlighting on the file, and removing the
prompts allows a user to just copy-paste the entire block into the terminal to
run the update.
biber: 2.12 -> 2.13
Vendored potrace was moved from libs/potrace to
texk/dvisvgm/dvisvgm-src/libs/potrace. Unfortunately, it is not trivial
to remove it from there, so for now dvisvgm seems to be using its
vendored dependencies.
There ver very many conflicts, basically all due to
name -> pname+version. Fortunately, almost everything was auto-resolved
by kdiff3, and for now I just fixed up a couple evaluation problems,
as verified by the tarball job. There might be some fallback to these
conflicts, but I believe it should be minimal.

texlive attribute was accidentally added in attrset wrapped with
stdenv.lib.optionalAttrs (!stdenv.isDarwin)
Fixes: dbc2c1c4b8 ('texlive: add missing perl dependencies for latexindent')
Initial language.{dat,def} configuration files provided by
`texlive.hyphen-base` may declare languages that were not part of the
combined packages. Those are filtered out by a sed script that had few
problems:
1) The sed script was generated from a list of potentially non-unique
packages. Every repetition of a select and print clause would produce a
copy of a language declaration in the output file. This became a problem
for update to the 2018-final, the fmtutil would crash from too much
German hyphenation.
2) The select clauses were ambiguous: both '^% from hyphen' and
'^% from hyphen-welsh' will match a line 'from hyphen-welsh'.
mkUniqueOutPaths used to produce empty paths for dummy packages, this
version strips those out. This does not affect `pkgList.bin` at all, but
`pkgList.nonbin` is affected, so this is not exactly a refactoring. It
should not harm to have a cleaner `paths`.
Also, original comment said "here we deal with those dummy packages
needed for hyphenation filtering". This doesn't seem to be true, the
packages that were really filtered are actually metapackages that
represent collections. I also could not find any dummy packages even in
the originally committed version.
