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 has been the case before e45c211, but it turns out that it's very
useful to override the channel packages so we can run tests with
different Chromium build options.

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.
