- `localSystem` is added, it strictly supercedes system
- `crossSystem`'s description mentions `localSystem` (and vice versa).
- No more weird special casing I don't even understand

Among other things, this will allow *2nix tools to output plain data
while still being composable with the traditional
callPackage/.override interfaces.
This can be disabled with the `withKerberos` flag if desired.
Make the relevant assertions lazy,
so that if an overlay is used to set kerberos to null,
a later override can explicitly set `withKerberos` to false.
Don't build with GSSAPI by default;
the patchset is large and a bit hairy,
and it is reasonable to follow upstream who has not merged it
in not enabling it by default.

Using pkgs.lib on the spine of module evaluation is problematic
because the pkgs argument depends on the result of module
evaluation. To prevent an infinite recursion, pkgs and some of the
modules are evaluated twice, which is inefficient. Using ‘with lib’
prevents this problem.
E.g.
The unique option `fileSystems./.device' is defined multiple times, in `/etc/nixos/configuration.nix' and `/etc/nixos/foo.nix'.
This requires passing file/value tuples to the merge functions.
For instance, if time.timeZone is defined multiple times, you now get
the error message:
error: user-thrown exception: The unique option `time.timeZone' is defined multiple times, in `/etc/nixos/configurations/misc/eelco/x11vnc.nix' and `/etc/nixos/configuration.nix'.
while previously you got:
error: user-thrown exception: Multiple definitions of string. Only one is allowed for this option.
and only an inspection of the stack trace gave a clue as to what
option caused the problem.
