citrix_workspace: add more features, refactor derivation
In #89806 it has been reported that the final package is missing a lot of features like support for the self-service GUI and the config-management. While working on supporting those components in the Nix-package, I decided to refactor the package to simplify the entire setup. This patch changes the following things: * Binaries and libraries are patched using the `autoPatchelfHook` to avoid having unneeded libraries linked (e.g. some programs use gtk2, others use gtk3). * Moved source-declarations into their own file. * Wrapped `configmgr` and `selfservice` and added those to `$out/bin`. * Don't mention the old `citrix_receiver`-packages in the manual anymore since those packages were removed in 19.09 and are EOLed anyways. Closes #89806
