Jasper has been marked insecure for a while, and upstream has not
been responsive to CVEs for over a year.

Previously the only way to deprecate a type was using
theType = lib.warn "deprecated" (mkOptionType ...)
This caused the warning to be emitted when the type was evaluated, but
the error didn't include which option actually used that type.
With this commit, types can specify a deprecationMessage, which when
non-null, is printed along with the option that uses the type

It's not used at all in-tree now, so we can remove it completely after
any remaining users are given notice.
An easy-to-make mistake when declaring e.g. a submodule is the accidental
confusion of `options` and `config`:
types.submodule {
config = {
foo = mkOption { /* ... */ };
};
}
However the error-message
The option `[definition 1-entry 1].foo' defined in `<expr.nix>' does not exist.
is fairly unhelpful because it seems as the options are declared at the
first sight. In fact, it took a colleague and me a while to track down such
a mistake a few days ago and we both agreed that this should be somehow caught
to save the time we spent debugging the module in question.
At first I decided to catch this error in the `submodules`-type directly
by checking whether `options` is undeclared, however this becomes fairly
complicated as soon as a submodule-declaration e.g. depends on existing
`config`-values which would've lead to some ugly `builtins.tryExec`-heuristic.
This patch now simply checks if the option's prefix has any options
defined if a point in evaluation is reached where it's clear that the
option in question doesn't exist. This means that this patch doesn't
change the logic of the module system, it only provides a more detailed
error in certain cases:
The option `[definition 1-entry 1].foo' defined in `<expr.nix>' does not exist.
However it seems as there are no options defined in [definition 1-entry 1]. Are you sure you've
declared your options properly? This happens if you e.g. declared your options in `types.submodule'
under `config' rather than `options'.
The refactoring in fd75dc8765
introduced a mistake in the error message that doesn't show the full
context anymore. E.g. with this module:
options.foo.bar = lib.mkOption {
type = lib.types.submodule {
baz = 10;
};
default = {};
};
You'd get the error
The option `baz' defined in `/home/infinisil/src/nixpkgs/config.nix' does not exist.
instead of the previous
The option `foo.bar.baz' defined in `/home/infinisil/src/nixpkgs/config.nix' does not exist.
This commit undoes this regression
Submodules that have a freeform type set behave as if that was the type
of the option itself (for values that don't have an option). Since the
submodules options are shown as separate entries in the manual, it makes
sense to show the freeform type as the submodule type.
