ae1e304a60 haskell docs: add info about hoogle's --local flag to section 9.5.2.3
Relevant section: 9.5.2.3. How to install a compiler with libraries, hoogle and documentation indexes

Since version 5 `hoogle server`s --local flag solves the problem with links from
`http:` to `file:` URIs:

    hoogle server --local -p 8080

bf6d796a27 haskell: allow overriding all package sets at once
Setting haskell.packageOverrides like so:

  haskell = super.haskell // {
    packageOverrides = self: super: {
      my-package = ...;
      my-other-package = ...;
    };
  };

causes all compiler-specific package sets to be overridden with those
overrides.

dc40fca23f nixpkgs: remove ancient 'ecj' package
Nobody has stepped up to keep maintaining this and it's several
years old, and the last strict Java 7 dependency, as it won't work
with newer versions without an update.

perlPackages: Add cross-compilation support.
This involved:

* Installing miniperl as $dev/bin/perl
* Setting miniperl to take INC from
  lib/perl5/{site_perl/,}cross_perl/${version} as well as
  lib/perl5/{site_perl/,}/${version}/${runtimeArch}, in that
  order. miniperl taking from runtimeArch is not really correct, but
  it works in some pure-perl cases (e.g. Config.pm) and can be
  overridden with the cross_perl variant.
* Installing perl-cross's stubs into
  $dev/lib/perl5/cross_perl/${version}
* Patching MakeMaker.pm to gracefully degrade (very slightly) if B.pm
  can't be loaded, which it can't in cross-compilation.
* Passing the right build-time and runtime perls to Makefile.PL

5f8cf0048e rust: update cargo builder to fetch registry dynamically
The biggest benefit is that we no longer have to update the registry
package. This means that just about any cargo package can be built by
nix. No longer does `cargo update` need to be feared because it will
update to packages newer then what is available in nixpkgs.

Instead of fetching the cargo registry this bundles all the source code
into a "vendor/" folder.

This also uses the new --frozen and --locked flags which is nice.

Currently cargo-vendor only provides binaries for Linux and
macOS 64-bit. This can be solved by building it for the other
architectures and uploading it somewhere (like the NixOS cache).

This also has the downside that it requires a change to everyone's deps
hash. And if the old one is used because it was cached it will fail to
build as it will attempt to use the old version. For this reason the
attribute has been renamed to `cargoSha256`.

345b35c48a Python: add buildPythonPackage.overridePythonPackage method.
This allows one to always override the call to `buildPythonPackage`.

In the following example we create an environment where we have the `blaze` package using an older version of `pandas`. We override first the Python interpreter and pass `packageOverrides` which contains the overrides for packages in
the package set.

```
with import <nixpkgs> {};

(let
  python = let
    packageOverrides = self: super: {
      pandas = super.pandas.overridePythonPackage(old: rec {
        version = "0.19.1";
        name = "pandas-${version}";
        src =  super.fetchPypi {
          pname = "pandas";
          inherit version;
          sha256 = "08blshqj9zj1wyjhhw3kl2vas75vhhicvv72flvf1z3jvapgw295";
        };
      });
    };
  in pkgs.python3.override {inherit packageOverrides;};

in python.withPackages(ps: [ps.blaze])).env

dfcc9e2994 ghc: support building with integer-simple and provide package sets for it
If the flag enableIntegerSimple is true GHC will be build with the GPL-free but
slower integer-simple library instead of the faster but GPLed integer-gmp
library.

The attribute `pkgs.haskell.compiler.integer-simple."${ghcVersion}"` provides a
GHC compiler build with `integer-simple`.

Similarly, the attribute `pkgs.haskell.packages.integer-simple."${ghcVersion}"`
provides a package set supporting `integer-simple`.

f5dfe78a1e Add overlays mechanism to Nixpkgs.
This patch add a new argument to Nixpkgs default expression named "overlays".

By default, the value of the argument is either taken from the environment variable `NIXPKGS_OVERLAYS`,
or from the directory `~/.nixpkgs/overlays/`.  If the environment variable does not name a valid directory
then this mechanism would fallback on the home directory.  If the home directory does not exists it will
fallback on an empty list of overlays.

The overlays directory should contain the list of extra Nixpkgs stages which would be used to extend the
content of Nixpkgs, with additional set of packages.  The overlays, i-e directory, files, symbolic links
are used in alphabetical order.

The simplest overlay which extends Nixpkgs with nothing looks like:

```nix
self: super: {
}
```

More refined overlays can use `super` as the basis for building new packages, and `self` as a way to query
the final result of the fix-point.

An example of overlay which extends Nixpkgs with a small set of packages can be found at:
  https://github.com/nbp/nixpkgs-mozilla/blob/nixpkgs-overlay/moz-overlay.nix

To use this file, checkout the repository and add a symbolic link to
the `moz-overlay.nix` file in `~/.nixpkgs/overlays` directory.
