e71a5cb878 stdenv: introduce baseHash() to replace stripHash()
stripHash uses a global variable to communicate it's computation
results, but it's not necessary. You can just pipe to stdout in a
subshell. A function mostly behaves like just another command.

baseHash() also introduces a suffix-stripping capability since it's
something the users of the function tend to use.

- missing cd command
- invoke bundler through nix-shell, so it doesn't need to be on $PATH
  Note: running bundix through nix-shell won't work ATM, as the shell sets
  SSL_CERT_FILE=/no-cert-file.crt which prevents fetching throug https.
- use version from gemset to simplify updating
- don't break line in meta.description

7f7ebe5bf6 nixpkgs manual: Fix license strings docs
The wrong usage of unfree-redistributable fixed in
ea242619fb can be explaind by unclear
documention, specifically the section in the nixpkgs manual describing
generic licenses it is written to use attributes from `stdenv.lib.licenses`
but in the list the strings form was documented without quotation marks.

This confuses people because the package builds fine locally but failes
the tests on travis-ci.

92179785b6 DOC: Overview of Nixpkgs/channels/Hydra/tests (close #11263)
What I missed when I began using Nix and NixOS was a clear overview of
how packages, channels, Hydra, the master branch and updates to channels
relate to each other.

I've noticed I am not the only one, given the amount of times these
questions pop up.

For now I propose to include this in the Nixpkgs manual, since this
seems to be the best fit. However, I think it would be good to include
this in either a new manual, i.e., a user manual, or an 'official'
tutorial.

b8c489e781 Merge branch 'staging'
It seemed very fine on Hydra before it was cancelled due to glibc rebuild,
in particular the nixpkgs unstable job succeeded except for
bootstrap-tarball tests which should be fine after ee994dfae6.

Therefore, let's avoid another mass rebuild by merging now when we don't
have binaries for master anyway.
