4e907dbca1 stdenv: Force doCheck and doInstallCheck to be false when we are cross compiling 
I hope this will be a temporary measure. If there is consensus around
issue #33599, then we can follow an explicit `dontCheck`, but default to
not checking during cross builds when none is given.

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

I beleive this is a better alternative to:
- https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/25080
- https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/27058

Replacing `$out/share/shell` with `$bin/share/fzf` was necessary to
prevent dependency loop in produced derivations.

I've seen that mistake at least a few times already, e.g.
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/26209#issuecomment-305925562
It might perhaps seem counter-intuitive if one doesn't know nixpkgs well.

manual: add "declarative package management" section 
This section gives some details on how to setup an "environment"
without having to go through NixOS (although it could be used there
too). I’ve tried to make it straightforward and have a kind of
"tutorial" feel. Not sure if that’s appropriate for the manual, so any
recommended changes would be helpful.

manual: add "Emacs" section to manual 
This gives some basics on configuring Emacs within Nix. The
configuration is fairly long just to give a good idea of what’s going
on. I can trim out some of it if it’s not necessary. Note that there
is already a section for Emacs in the NixOS manual. However, this is
aimed at avoiding using modules altogether to make things easier for
non-NixOS users. This configuration should work on NixOS anyway,
however.

863d79b364 top-level: Introduce targetPackages and a "double link fold" 
Each bootstrapping stage ought to just depend on the previous stage, but
poorly-written compilers break this elegence. This provides an easy-enough
way to depend on the next stage: targetPackages. PLEASE DO NOT USE IT
UNLESS YOU MUST!

I'm hoping someday in a pleasant future I can revert this commit :)
