Previously, nix-prefetch-git would report the same JSON whether submodules were being fetched or not; with this change, the --fetch-submodules option will cause the JSON output to include "fetchSubmodules": true, so that fetchgit (builtins.fromJSON (builtins.readFile ./path/to/output.json)) will work.
Commit aa097946d2 only fixed evaluation.
Ssince 37dbd62 however, the fetchurl call is already implied so just
changing the path will still result in fetchurl (fetchurl ...), so let's
drop the outer fetchurl.

Fixes#12794 by reverting the source tree splitup (c92dbff) to use the
source tarball directly into the main Chromium derivation and making the
whole source/ subdirectory obsolete. The reasons for this are explained
in 4f981b4f84.
This also now renames the "sources.nix" file to "upstream-info.nix",
which is a more proper name for the file, because it not only contains
"source code" but also the Chrome binaries needed for the proprietary
plugins (of course "source" could also mean "where to get it", but I
wanted to avoid this ambiguity entirely).
I have successfully built and tested this using the VM tests.
All results can be found here:
https://headcounter.org/hydra/eval/313435
As of 6041cfe, the upstream-info.nix (back then it was called
sources.nix) is no longer in the source/ subdirectory, so we need to fix
that comment to say that the file is autogenerated from update.sh in the
*same* directory.

This reverts commit 5979946c41.
I have tested this by building against the stable version of Chromium
and it seems to compile just fine, so it doesn't seem to be needed
anymore.

This change is not backward compatible, in the sense that this allow you to
override the packages which used to be overriden by the last stage of
stdenv. Note, this does not mean that these packages would be used by
stdenv.
This condition used to be implicit in the sense that the stdenvOverrides
uses pkgs_6, instead of pkgs_7 as its super set, and also that each stage of
the compiler is build again the bootstrap packages of the previous stage,
thus overriden by the stdenv.override function.
* the major change is to set TARGETDIR=${vardir}, and symlink from
${vardir} back to ${out} instead of the other way around. this
gives CP more liberty to write to more directories -- in particular
it seems to want to write some configuration files outside of conf?
* run.conf does not need 'export'
* minor tweaks to CrashPlanDesktop.patch
Only a aesthetics thingy, but also corrects the comment, because we're
essentially precompiling .py files, NOT the .pyc files (the latter are
the results).

This addresses #12794 so that we now have only a single tarball where we
base our build on instead of splitting the source into different outputs
first and then reference the outputs.
The reason I did this in the first place is that we previously built the
sandbox as a different derivation and unpacking the whole source tree
just for building the sandbox was a bit too much.
As we now have namespaces sandbox built in by default we no longer have
that derivation anymore. It still might come up however if we want to
build NaCl as a separate derivation (see #8560), but splitting the
source code into things only NaCl might require is already too much work
and doesn't weight out the benefits.
Another issue with the source splitup is that Hydra now has an output
limit for non-fixed-output derivations which we're already hitting.
Tested the build against the stable channel and it went well, but I
haven't tested running the browser.

We always do something like "fetchurl channelProduct", so let's move it
to getChannel directly so we can avoid those fetchurl calls all over the
place.
Also, we can still access subattributes from the fetchurl call if we
need to, so there really is no need to expose the product's attributes
directly.

This patch change the behaviour or overridePackages:
- Before, overridePackages was based on top of the set of packages
overriden by `~/.nixpkgs/config.nix` file.
- After, overridePackages should when given a function f, behave almost¹
the same as-if the packageOverrides attribute of `~/.nixpkgs/config.nix`
file attribute was set to f, assuming that we ignore the extra `self`
argument.
¹ It is not yet exactly the same because we have many paths which are
re-entering nixpkgs while taking the default attributes, such as the
bootstrap phase of stdenv. Thus if the nixpkgs configuration overrides any
of the dependencies need for the bootstrap, then we might get different sha.
Yes, I know I'm a bit nitpicky, but lines >80 chars are very ugly if you
have two windows side-by-side.
Thus no feature changes here.

The plugin was looking for pvr.hts.so.2.2.13, so as only pvr.hts.so was copied, the plugin would not load. This symlinks all variants of the name to the addons folder.
We now should have only the default.nix left in the source directory and
we can start to factor out the pieces into the Chromium main derivation
attributes.

There were two problems:
- because buildPhase is specified directly, preBuild ends up never being
executed; and
- the source is missing a header, resulting in an undefined reference error
The "sources.nix" also contains information about where to get binary
packages, so calling it "upstream-info.nix" fits better in terms of
naming.
Also, we're moving it away from the sources dir, because the latter will
soon vanish.

We're going to reference the patches in the Chromium main build rather
than applying it to the sources. So as a first step, this should keep
the patches away from the "source" subdirectory so we can make it flat.

Extract stdenvDefault from the set of all packages. As this set of
attributes are inter-dependant, probably due to stdenvOverrides, we have to
keep them in a close set of inter-dependent options.
I guess I will have to investigate more ...
While evaluating the derivation of xbursttools:
the condition `pkgs.stdenv ? overrides` causes the evaluation of
`stdenvCross`. This evaluation comes too early during the execution, as
it prevents the resolution of names such as `pkgs.lib`, and
`stdenvAdapaters.makeStdenvCross`, which we want to take from `pkgs`
instead of `self` in following patches.
By swapping the conditions, we effectively make the resolution of `pkgs.lib`
and `stdenvAdapaters.makeStdenvCross` possible through the pkgs attribute.
Note, the aliases are now computed against the set of packages defined in
the set of all packages, and no longer apply to any overriden package.
I think this is better as this reduces the amount of surprizes.
This modification change the names bound to the `helperFunctions` attribute
set, to be bound to `self` which is constructed by merging the same
`helperFunctions` set with the set of all packages.
This patch works as expected because none of the helperFunction names is
aliased by the name of a package.
The `helperFunctions` and `stdenvAdapters` both use the `pkgs` attribute as
input, either to inherit some properties, either to use it as argument.
The `pkgs` binding used in both expressions of the `helperFunctions` and
`stdenvAdapters` is no longer the result of the `applyGlobalOverrides`
function, but the argument of the `pkgsFun` function.
The `pkgsFun` functions is called twice under `applyGlobalOverrides`, and in
both cases, the first argument of `pkgsFun` correspond to the result of
`applyGlobalOverrides`.
Thus, this modification will change the bindings, but the evaluation of
`<nixpkgs>`.
A third call the `pkgsFun` exists under `overridePackages` in the set of all
packages. Previously, the `helperFunctions` and `stdenvAdapaters` would use
the functions defined as part of the default `<nixpkgs>` set. With this
modification, the `helperFunctions` and the `stdenvAdapters` are now using
the fix-point of the newly evaluated package set.
This implies that this modification allow the user to use
`overridePackages`, which is already not recommended for performance
reasons, to override the inputs of the `helperFucntions` and
`stdenvAdapaters` too, where this was not possible before.
We were previously getting collissions for the following
2 files with files from the dropbox package:
- bin/dropbox
- share/applications/dropbox.desktop
As a consequence the binary has been renamed to dropbox-cli and
the .desktop removed as it is redundant.
