I thought about doing a seperate output for these, but they're tiny
compared to the size of the binary, so there's no point.

Cargo uses git-rs which is made to be built against the bundled libgit2
version that hasn't been part of a stable release yet. Using our libgit2
instead of the master version fails during runtime as they are not
compatible anymore.
After the next libgit2 update we can try again but it is likely that
there will also be yet another cargo release at that point in time…
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`.

simplify the boostrap hashes a bit
build with bundled llvm:
the rust project has forked the llvm compiler to solve some
issues.
With pkgs.llvm the test suite fails.

Since cargo build became a rust package, postInstall hook was no longer
called. When the hook was reenabled in
cdd11368426380db545cad84c76e350e5e201adc, it revealed that scripts
leftover from the component based installer are no longer present.
