Eelco Dolstra f3d94cfc23 Revert "Add the tool "nixos-typecheck" that can check an option declaration to:"
This reverts commit cad8957eab. It
breaks NixOps, but more importantly, such major changes to the module
system really need to be reviewed.

The configuration of the Nix Packages collection. (For
details, see the Nixpkgs documentation.) It allows you to set
package configuration options, and to override packages
globally through the <varname>packageOverrides</varname>
option. The latter is a function that takes as an argument
the <emphasis>original</emphasis> Nixpkgs, and must evaluate
to a set of new or overridden packages.

Specifies the Nix platform type for which NixOS should be built.
If unset, it defaults to the platform type of your host system.
Specifying this option is useful when doing distributed
multi-platform deployment, or when building virtual machines.
