[Nix-dev] Zero Hydra Failures (ZHF) project

[Domen Kožar]

During the NixOS Sprint in Ljubljana I worked on ZHF project, mostly
tackling python packages. I'm still fighting with pypy and sqlite3, but in
general we should be down to around 300 failing builds for NixOS.

What's left are mostly kernelPackages and some haskell/ocaml stuff.
