`rustc.config` is called `rust.rustcTarget` now, and
`{rustc -> rust}.platform`.
This is the new way (tm), and is preferred since
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/271707 -
though the documentation still is outdated, and some expressions in
nixpkgs were using the old interface.
This updates both.
linuxManualConfig involves more boilerplate to change the kernel. Use
the wrapper linuxPackages_custom which is wrapper that takes an
attribute sets and calls linuxManualConfig approrpriately.
This is much easier for beginners to use instead of linuxManualConfig
helper.
Point to linuxManualConfig for further customizations.
* doc: add stdenv passthru chapter
Broad strokes:
- create the chapter
- move existing stdenv passthru coverage into it
- move out-of-place coverage of passthru.tests from the stdenv meta chapter into it
- (try to) apply 1-sentence-per-line to text I've touched
- add legacy anchors for everything moved
- update existing links to the new anchors
- add tentative motivating text
- make nixpkgs-internal links relative/branchless
razor: if it is only ever needed by contributors, which is likely if links
refer to the latest revision of the source code, then it's for
the contributor guide

Context:
@FlafyDev: I think flutter apps in nixpkgs should be required to specify
a flutter version. like flutter319 and flutter322 instead of using
flutter.

This makes `justStaticExecutables` error if the produced store path
contains references to GHC. This is almost always erroneous and due to
the generated `Paths_*` module being imported. This helps prevent
`justStaticExecutables` from producing binaries with closure sizes in
the gigabytes.

* doc: autogenerate python interpreter table
This serves as a practical example on generating documentation by
inspection of the evaluated Nixpkgs tree.

This change fixes cross-compilation for .NET packages (that are not
using .sln as project files). See relevant comment in the change list
for more details.
In addition to that, it removes dotnet-test-sdk that appears to be
broken, that is, dotnet --list-sdks does not recognize SDKs from PATH,
and when propagated from the check hook it was shadowed by inputs from
preceding hooks.
Note that dotnet-test-sdk used to work when it was introduced in PR
144062, but PR 155257 probably overlooked this case. However, currently
it is not used in Nixpkgs and I think dotnetCorePackages.combinePackages
should cover the intended use case for dotnet-test-sdk.
