Thomas Strobel cad8957eab Add the tool "nixos-typecheck" that can check an option declaration to:
- Enforce that an option declaration has a "defaultText" if and only if the
   type of the option derives from "package", "packageSet" or "nixpkgsConfig"
   and if a "default" attribute is defined.

 - Enforce that the value of the "example" attribute is wrapped with "literalExample"
   if the type of the option derives from "package", "packageSet" or "nixpkgsConfig".

 - Warn if a "defaultText" is defined in an option declaration if the type of
   the option does not derive from "package", "packageSet" or "nixpkgsConfig".

 - Warn if no "type" is defined in an option declaration.

To build the manual, you need Nix installed on your system (no need
for NixOS). To install Nix, follow the instructions at

    https://nixos.org/nix/download.html

When you have Nix on your system, in the root directory of the project
(i.e., `nixpkgs`), run:

    nix-build nixos/release.nix -A manual.x86_64-linux

When this command successfully finishes, it will tell you where the
manual got generated.
