[Backport release-24.11] lib.extendMkDerivation: init

[philiptaron]

BotHuman-based backport to release-24.11, triggered by a label comment in #389635.

• Before merging, ensure that this backport is acceptable for the release.
  • Even as a non-commiter, if you find that it is not acceptable, leave a comment.

The merge conflicts were a result of nixfmt being applied on lib and the evolution of the Nixpkgs manual's redirects.json functionality. Nothing major.

I certify that this backport is acceptable for NixOS 24.11 release.

As a member of the honorary judiciary, I also direct the commiter in action
(CIA) to also backport commits that enable finalAttrs support in individual builders.

You can see my manual conflict resolution in the cherry-pick failure.

As a member of the honorary judiciary, I also direct the commiter in action (CIA) to also backport commits that enable finalAttrs support in individual builders.

Your righteous honor, the humble committer in action finds that multiple PRs allow the risk profile to be distributed and understood in ways that a single PR might not be, and so humbly defers to the ones who have the power to edit or merge this PR as to the right course of action.

[JohnRTitor]

Your wisdom and prudence are duly noted. The council of commiters (COC) acknowledges the merit of distributing risk across multiple PRs. With due respect to the esteemed council, I shall now take it upon myself to merge this PR, wielding the power entrusted to me. May the repository remain ever stable and just!

[drupol]

Hark! Ye noble scribes and valiant stewards of the code, verily doth mine heart swell with mirth at the discourse here inscribed. Lo, the council of commiters hath spoken, and the weighty matter of backporting hath been debated with the wisdom of yore.

Prithee, let not thine hands be idle nor thine resolve waver, for in these scrolls of GitHub doth lie the fate of stable builds and righteous derivations! May the merges be swift, the conflicts be few, and the CI ever merciful!

Signed in good faith, A humble observer of these digital annals.
