BEFORE:
the python derivation did not contain .nativeDrv and .crossDrv because
it was not from the __splicedPackages set
the python used in mk-python-derivation.nix was for host

AFTER:
the python derivation does contain .nativeDrv and .crossDrv because
it is from the __splicedPackages set
those 2 are what makes nativeBuildInputs and buildInputs function
properly
the python used in mk-python-derivation.nix is for build

Test with:
nix-build -A lua.tests pass
Tests are very limited for now, goal is mostly to put the infra into
place and enrich the tests when dealing with lua issues.
add luaPath/luaCpath as passthrough
makes it easier to generate LUA_PATH/LUA_CPATH
right now the src is ignored in:
```
lush-nvim = buildNeovimPlugin {
pname = "lush.nvim";
version = "2022-08-09";
src = fetchFromGitHub {
owner = "rktjmp";
repo = "lush.nvim";
rev = "6b9f399245de7bea8dac2c3bf91096ffdedfcbb7";
sha256 = "0rb77rwmbm438bmbjfk5hwrrcn5sihsa1413bdpc27rw3rrn8v8z";
};
meta.homepage = "https://github.com/rktjmp/lush.nvim/";
};
```
which is very confusing. With this PR, we correctly override the src and
the version of the package. We introduce a rockspecVersion attribute of
lua package to be able to still find the rockspec when the
"version" field needs to be different than "rockspecVersion".
Since the Nix command used is an implementation detail of the script,
it's the script that will have to be updated if the command changes,
it's the script that should be opting into this, rather than making
the user do it globally.
Since c0972c16dc ("update-python-libraries: add missing dependency nix"),
Nix will be provided as a dependency, so we know we'll always be using
a modern version and no longer need the fallback.
*Flags implies a list
slightly relevant:
> stdenv: start deprecating non-list configureFlags https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/173172
the makeInstalledTests function in `nixos/tests/installed-tests/default.nix` isn't available outside of nixpkgs so
it's not a breaking change
