Eelco Dolstra f3d94cfc23 Revert "Add the tool "nixos-typecheck" that can check an option declaration to:"
This reverts commit cad8957eab. It
breaks NixOps, but more importantly, such major changes to the module
system really need to be reviewed.

Thomas Strobel cad8957eab Add the tool "nixos-typecheck" that can check an option declaration to:
- Enforce that an option declaration has a "defaultText" if and only if the
   type of the option derives from "package", "packageSet" or "nixpkgsConfig"
   and if a "default" attribute is defined.

 - Enforce that the value of the "example" attribute is wrapped with "literalExample"
   if the type of the option derives from "package", "packageSet" or "nixpkgsConfig".

 - Warn if a "defaultText" is defined in an option declaration if the type of
   the option does not derive from "package", "packageSet" or "nixpkgsConfig".

 - Warn if no "type" is defined in an option declaration.

Eelco Dolstra 214d4fb73c Allow options with type "package" to be store paths
For example, this allows writing

  nix.package = /nix/store/786mlvhd17xvcp2r4jmmay6jj4wj6b7f-nix-1.10pre4206_896428c;

Also, document types.package in the manual.
