John Ericson 0eb142cd46 top-level: Expose splicePackages for newScope users
Otherwise extra packages in scope can't be made to work for cross. As
much as I think splicing is an evil trick, I think it's best to do this
and at least have it work consistently for now.

It would seems simpler to expose a `newScopeWithSplicing`, but there's a
few attrs (like `buildPackages` or `buildHaskellPackages`) that
shouldn't be spliced. Users should instead splice, override the splicing
on those packages, and apply `newScope` to that.

Nixpkgs is a collection of packages for the Nix package manager. It is periodically built and tested by the Hydra build daemon as so-called channels. To get channel information via git, add nixpkgs-channels as a remote:

% git remote add channels git://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels.git

For stability and maximum binary package support, it is recommended to maintain custom changes on top of one of the channels, e.g. nixos-18.03 for the latest release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:

% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-18.03

For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.

NixOS Linux distribution source code is located inside nixos/ folder.
