floorp: drop, replace with floorp-bin; init at 12.1.4 (#439994)

doc/release-notes/rl-2511.section.md

···
 
 - `python3Packages.triton` no longer takes an `enableRocm` argument and supports ROCm in all build configurations via runtime binding. In most cases no action will be needed. If triton is unable to find the HIP SDK add `rocmPackages.clr` as a build input or set the environment variable `HIP_PATH="${rocmPackages.clr}"`.
 
+- `floorp` has been replaced with a binary build, available as `floorp-bin`. Due to major changes in the upstream project structure and build system, building Floorp from source has become unfeasible. No configuration or state migration is necessary.
+
 - `inspircd` has been updated to the v4 release series. Please refer to the upstream documentation for [general information](https://docs.inspircd.org/4/overview/#v4-overview) and a list of [breaking changes](https://docs.inspircd.org/4/breaking-changes/).
 
 - `lima` package now only includes the guest agent for the host's architecture by default. If your guest VM's architecture differs from your Lima host's, you'll need to enable the `lima-additional-guestagents` package by setting `withAdditionalGuestAgents = true` when overriding lima with this input.
