First, we need check against the host platform, not the build platform. That's simple enough. Second, we move away from exahustive finite case analysis (i.e. exhaustively listing all platforms the package builds on). That only work in a closed-world setting, where we know all platforms we might build one. But with cross compilation, we may be building for arbitrary platforms, So we need fancier filters. This is the closed world to open world change. The solution is instead of having a list of systems (strings in the form "foo-bar"), we have a list of of systems or "patterns", i.e. attributes that partially match the output of the parsers in `lib.systems.parse`. The "check meta" logic treats the systems strings as an exact whitelist just as before, but treats the patterns as a fuzzy whitelist, intersecting the actual `hostPlatform` with the pattern and then checking for equality. (This is done using `matchAttrs`). The default convenience lists for `meta.platforms` are now changed to be lists of patterns (usually a single pattern) in `lib/systems/for-meta.nix` for maximum flexibility under this new system.
