Benjamin Hipple 131a32a5af rust: update docs on legacyCargoFetcher; remove unnecessary defaults
As mentioned in #79975, the default on `legacyCargoFetcher` if left unspecified
is now `false`.

Benjamin Hipple 2115a2037c fetchcargo: use flat tar.gz file for vendored src instead of recursive hash dir
This has several advantages:

1. It takes up less space on disk in-between builds in the nix store.
2. It uses less space in the binary cache for vendor derivation packages.
3. It uses less network traffic downloading from the binary cache.
4. It plays nicely with hashed mirrors like tarballs.nixos.org, which only
   substitute --flat hashes on single files (not recursive directory hashes).
5. It's consistent with how simple `fetchurl` src derivations work.
6. It provides a stronger abstraction between input src-package and output
   package, e.g., it's harder to accidentally depend on the src derivation at
   runtime by referencing something like `${src}/etc/index.html`. Likewise, in
   the store it's harder to get confused with something that is just there as a
   build-time dependency vs. a runtime dependency, since the build-time
   src dependencies are tarred up.

Disadvantages are:
1. It takes slightly longer to untar at the start of a build.

As currently implemented, this attaches the compacted vendor.tar.gz feature as a
rider on `verifyCargoDeps`, since both of them are relatively newly implemented
behavior that change the `cargoSha256`.

If this PR is accepted, I will push forward the remaining rust packages with a
series of treewide PRs to update the `cargoSha256`s.

Benjamin Hipple 4988805287 doc: consistent formatting on python manual section
No material changes to docs, but trying to sanitize them for consistent
readability prior to looking at #75837.

- Use `*` for lists instead of `-`. I have no opinion one way or the other, but
  the latter was only used in 1-2 places.
- Pad the code blocks with whitespace.
- Wrap to 80 characters, except for a few 1-liners that were only slightly over.

Dima e9ba4b94fb doc: python: fixing mistake in venv example
When updating the section to python 3 some places still
referred to pythonPackages and were overlooked.
Decided to switch it to be more similar to the first
example binding pythonPackages and clarified comments a
bit based on confusion I observed on IRC.

Related to https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/77569

Dima 25d0d2b5e8 doc: python: refreshing virtualenv section for venv
Updating section about imperative use of ad-hoc virtual-environments for
use of pythons built-in `venv` module via venvShellHook.  Also trying to
make it a bit friendlier to beginners by adding a bit more explanation
to the code snippet and some remarks old-school virtualenv.

Adjusting for venvShellHook and adding manual example

zimbatm f373ecec8f buildGoModule: support impure modules (#76532)
When modSha256 is null, disable the nix sandbox instead of using a
fixed-output derivation. This requires the nix-daemon to have
`sandbox = relaxed` set in their config to work properly.

Because the output is (hopefully) deterministic based on the inputs,
this should give a reproducible output. This is useful for development
outside of nixpkgs where re-generating the modSha256 on each mod.sum
changes is cumbersome.

Don't use this in nixpkgs! This is why null is not the default value.

Reorganize the chapters into parts and reduce the TOC depth to make the

because every part will have its own TOC.

Section titles of languages/frameworks are also simplified to just
the name of the language/framework.

@garbas and @seppeljordan, are these updates correct?

I removed `offlinehacker/pypi2nix` as an unmaintained ancestor of the current repo `nix-community/pypi2nix`. It appears @garbas forked `offlinehacker/pypi2nix` to `garbas/pypi2nix` and then handed off maintainership to @seppeljordan, transferring the repo to `nix-community/pypi2nix`.

buildRustPackage: add verifyCargoDeps option
One issue with cargoSha256 is that it's hard to detect when it needs to
be updated or not. It's possible to upgrade a package and forget to
update cargoSha256 and run with old versions of the program or
libraries.

This commit introduces `verifyCargoDeps` which, when enabled, will check
that the Cargo.lock is not out of date in the cargoDeps by comparing it
with the package source.
