coding-conventions.chapter.md: update to account for #89885 (#191378) 
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/89885 ensures that fetches are
done securely (i.e. without `--insecure`) when the `hash` parameter is one of
the four special "fake" hashes.  However the manual was not updated in that PR.
This commit updates the manual to account for the already-merged changes from
that PR.

buildDotnetModule: move nugetDeps throw to when its actually needed 
Previously we had an assert that would complain when nugetDeps wasnt set,
which also didnt allow any passthru attributes (like fetch-deps) to be
build. That causes a cycle where you need nugetDeps to fetch the nuget
deps, but arent able to build the script to do so.

Adam Joseph aad7f1d6b3 doc/../rust.section.md: prominently mention buildRustXX names 
This was a source of massive confusion for me when I first learned my way around nixpkgs' rust machinery.  I seek to save others from that confusion.

* `buildRustPackage` should have been named `buildRustPackageUsingCargo`

* `buildRustCrate` should have been named `buildRustPackageUsingNix`

It is, unfortunately, too late to fix this.  Let's do the next best thing and make the names `buildRustPackage` and `buildRustCrate` very prominent in the documentation, so readers see immediately that they need to learn the following jargon:

* `buildRustPackage` means "build this Rust crate by calling `cargo` in one (or two) monolithic derivations"

* `buildRustCrate` means "build this Rust crate by calling `rustc` in one derivation for each crate"

dockerTools.buildImage: make VM memSize configurable 
Fixes #186752. This adds buildVMMemorySize (defaults to 512 MiB) to
buildImage, which is passed to vm.runInLinuxVM. This is needed for
larger base images, which may otherwise cause container build failures
due to OOM in the VM.

Frederik Rietdijk 2270b66d75 pythonPackagesExtensions: override all Python package sets at once 
Python package sets can be overridden by overriding an interpreter
and passing in `packageOverrides = self: super: {...};`. This is fine
in case you need a single interpreter, however, it does not help you
when you want to override all sets.

With this change it is possible to override all sets at once by
appending a list of "extensions" to `pythonPackagesExtensions`.

From reading the implementation you might wonder why a list is used, and
not
`lib.composeExtensions`? The reason is the latter requires knowledge of
the library function. This approach should be easier for most users
as it is similar to how we append to lists of e.g. inputs or patches
when overriding a derivation.

This change mimics existing strip{All,Debug}List variables to

The primary use case in mind is gcc where package has to install
both host and target ELFs. They have to be stripped by their own
strip tools accordingly.

buildDotnetModule: allow passing derivations to nugetDeps 
Sometimes I want to pass a different implementation of `mkNugetDeps`.
For example in private repos, it can be handy to use `__noChroot = true`
and bypass the deps.nix generation altogether. Or some Nuget packages
ship with ELF binaries that need to be patched, and that's best done as
soon as possible.

Malo Bourgon 399732b449 buildPerlPackage: don't mess with pname and phase out use of name 
Currently `buildPerlPackage` prefixes the Perl version to the package's
`pname`, which results in `nix run` not being able to work for any
packages build with it out of the box. This commit corrects that and
phases out the ability to set `name` directly, as well as refactors the
code to not require `cleanedAttrs`.

    error: undefined variable 'shadowSetup' at docker-image.nix:20:7

Instead use the full reference to `shadowSetup` in the example so it will work
as stated.

Adam Joseph 81bc106e08 meta.sourceProvenance documentation: clarify it is unaffected by changes to meta.license 
This commit clarifies that the meaning of the `meta.sourceProvenance`
field is independent of and unaffected by the value of the
`meta.license` field.  This is based on the intent of the RFC author
as expressed here:

  https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/161098#issuecomment-1081270201

This clarification is added for two reasons:

1. If in the future there should be some disagreement about what
   `sourceProvenance` to assign to a package, this may help resolve
   the disagreement.  Any interpretation of `sourceProvenance` which
   is influenced by the `meta.license` is clearly an incorrect
   interpretation.

2. If it should turn out that it is impossible to disentangle
   `sourceProvenance` from `meta.license`, this would indicate the
   need for changes to the `sourceProvenance` scheme.  That change
   might be as simple as replacing the sentence added by this commit
   with some other sentence explaining how the two fields influence
   each other.

This commit implements the recommendation made in the paragraph of
this comments which begins with "Please say this explicitly...":

This is the term that PEP 621 uses and it is less likely to be

I was never sure if it was `extra` or `extras`, or `require` or
`requires` and finally committed a mistake in #167405.
