This does not add missing release notes, and it doesn't do anything about the profiles feature we would really like to have so we can have consistent credit. Change-Id: I72a6f7acfcff85f380be17dac76501a6f4693776

Features |
Add a new eval-system option.
Unlike system, it just overrides the value of builtins.currentSystem.
This is more useful than overriding system, because you can build these derivations on remote builders which can work on the given system.
In contrast, system also effects scheduling which will cause Lix to build those derivations locally even if that doesn't make sense.
eval-system only takes effect if it is non-empty.
If empty (the default) system is used as before, so there is no breakage.
