The UPC has different dates for the yearly power cut, and Fox can
recover properly from a power loss, so we don't need to have it turned
off before the power cut. Simply disabling the timer is enough.

The cudainfo program checks that we can initialize the CUDA RT library
and communicate with the driver. It can be used as standalone program or
built with cudainfo.gpuCheck so it is executed inside the build sandbox
to see if it also works fine. It uses the autoAddDriverRunpath hook to
inject in the runpath the location of the library directory for CUDA
libraries.

This allows running derivations which depend on cuda runtime without
breaking the sandbox. We only need to add `requiredSystemFeatures = [ "cuda" ];`
to the derivation.

Adds a new patch to fix libxml2: the m4 AM_PATH_XML2 macro has been
deprecated and is no longer included in the latest nixpkgs unstable.
Upstream recommends using `PKG_CHECK_MODULES` instead.

suggests using the proprietary driver for older than Turing:

Intel compiler for C++ (icpc) is not able to parse the location of C++
headers from the output of gcc 14, but works fine for gcc 13.

We need to add the gcc in the PATH, but adding it directly to $PATH
doesn't work, as it will be restored to $path_backup before icc runs. So
for now we simply inject it to path_backup, but ideally we should find a
more robust solution.

Access internal hosts via apex proxy. From the compute nodes we first
open an SSH connection to apex, and then tunnel it through the HTTP
proxy with netcat.
This way we allow reaching internal GitLab repositories without
requiring the user to have credentials in the remote host, while we can
use multiple remotes to provide redundancy.
