This adds a way to specify the `evalSystem` or `evalPackages` explicitly when calling the `project` functions.
Currently if we want to make a `flake` that supports multiple systems we have few options:
* Require builders for all the supported systems (even just for `nix flake show`).
* Pass `--impure` so that haskell.nix can see `builtins.currentSystem` to set up `pkgs.evalPackages` to use that. Unfortunately this prevents nix from caching some of the work it does and often results in it recalculating for each supported system when it would otherwise be cached and take no time at all.
* Add an overlay to replace `evalPackages`. This works, but it is not straight forward.
* Materialize the nix files for the project.
This change allows `evalSystem = "x86_64-linux";` to be passed telling `haskell.nix` to run `cabal` and `nix-tools` on that system. The user will have to have a builder for that system, but does not need to have builders for the others (unless building outputs for them).
This change updates to the latest `nix-tools` to get the following fixes (there are 3 PRs in nix-tools, but just the one in haskell.nix to avoid having to update the materialized files multiple times):
## Better support for source repository packages
* https://github.com/input-output-hk/nix-tools/pull/107
Currently these are replaced by the `cabalProject` functions with regular `packages:` before running cabal configure. Cabal does not treat these the same (the setting of `tests:` and `benchmarks:` in the `cabal.project` file):
* The plan found by `cabalProject` may not match the one used when running `cabal`.
* The performance of the solver may not be consistent with running `cabal`.
This change replaces `source-repository-package` with another `source-repository-package` pointing at a minimal git repo.
## Only include planned components
* https://github.com/input-output-hk/nix-tools/pull/108
Only the components in the `plan.json` are now included in the haskell.nix cabal projects. This avoids missing dependencies attempting to build components that were not in the plan. Should fix#993.
## Pick latest packages
* https://github.com/input-output-hk/nix-tools/pull/109
When the same package occurs more than once in a `plan.json` file (perhaps because it is needed both by the project itself and by one of the `setup` dependencies or `build-tool-dependencies` of the project) the latest version will now be the one picked by haskell.nix. This is a work around for a common issue with `cabal-doctest` when cross compiling to windows (an old version of Win32 is used even if a newer one was required by the projects `constraints`).
Fixes:
Warning: `stdenv.lib` is deprecated and will be removed in the next release. Please use `pkgs.lib` instead. For more information see https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/108938
This requires explicitly identifying the things tht don't work and
removing them. I used our own `disabled` attribute, because `broken` is
weird and breaks evaluation, which isn't really what we want.
Cuts the number of jobs from over 2000 to 216. This seems to greatly
speeds up the time it takes small changes (where most stuff remains the
same) to be processed by hydra.
Uses https://github.com/NixOS/hydra/issues/715 to reference the
jobs in required by name avoiding OOM issues.

* Include `tests` in path for cross compiled tests
* Add ghc-boot-packages-nix to haskellNixRoots
* Fix naming warnings in tests sources
* Uses a single cleanGit call for all the tests
* Add memoize code for ghc-boot and ghc-extra pkgs
* Memoize ghc-boot and ghc-extra pkgs nix
* Fix release.nix being more strict than ci.nix by updating filterAttrsOnlyRecursive in ci-lib.nix
* Nicer errors when materialized path does not exist
* Updated materialization docs
* Add internalHackageIndexState to set the index-state used within haskell.nix
Changes to the haskell.nix code to fix broken tests:
* Add missing `then` to `call-cabal-project-to-nix.nix`.
* Fix default `hsSourceDirs` so that `.` gets included for `.all` component if one of the components does not have a `hsSourceDir` set.
* Fix `haskellNixRoots` so it works when cross compiling to windows.
Improvements to the haskell.nix tests:
* Run haskell.nix tests of nixpkgs 19.03 and 19.09.
* Run haskell.nix tests cross compiled to Windows under Wine (when possible).
* Add nix used as IFD inputs as tests to ensure they are cached.
* Use `haskell-nix.cabal-install` instead of `nixpkgs.cabal-install` in tests.
* tests: Add regression test for shellFor build-tools bug
* tests: Fix regen script
* Regenerate nix expressions for tests
* tests: ghc 8.4.4 -> 8.6.5
* shellFor: Fix bug where packages were not excluded from the env
If a multi-package project had an build-tools dependency between
packages, they would not be correctly removed from the shell's inputs.
Providing hackage and stackage here simplifies usage of the new
Haskell Infrastructure.
With this change, the user doesn't need to specify revisions of the
external repos, or update them.
Basically, with hackage.nix and stackage.nix, the latest version is
always best, because snapshots and package versions are added on
top. So there is no need for users to choose a revision.
Also add mkStackPkgSet which is a shortcut for building stack
projects.
