Nixpkgs module

Prototype a more extensive Nixpkgs module in flake-parts before perhaps eventually doing #41 https://twitter.com/ldesgoui/status/1592576468789628928

Diagnostic messages that a flake author may or may not care about. For example, a module might detect that it's used in a weird way, but not be sure whether...

Remove the nixpkgs module

2

It violates the architecture and should be replaced by a `NixOS/nixpkgs` default `flakeModule`.

Add a function that reports which option values change how when adding a definition. This may have to assume that `self` is defined by `mkFlake` only.

Test failure on GHC 9.8

Add `builtins.warn`

# Motivation A variation of `trace`, but - with the correct log level - no ANSI codes in expressions - can be debugged without stopping for actual `trace` calls (ie...

**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.** The Rust bindings use `GC_allow_register_threads` and `GC_register_my_thread`/`GC_unregister_my_thread` to make its unit tests work (avoid "collecting from unknown thread"). This limits...
