John Ericson 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.

Kevin Cox 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`.

Frederik Rietdijk 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
