function, which is similar to `build-asdf-system` from `packages.nix`, but is
part of the public API.
It takes the following arguments:
- `pname`: the package name
- `version`: the package version
- `src`: the package source
- `patches`: patches to apply to the source before build
- `nativeLibs`: native libraries used by CFFI and grovelling
- `javaLibs`: Java libraries for ABCL
- `lispLibs`: dependencies on other packages build with `buildASDFSystem`
- `systems`: list of systems to build
It can be used to define packages outside Nixpkgs, and, for example, add them
into the package scope with `withOverrides` which will be discussed later.
