Waiting to know whether it's better to patch shaderc inside the package or in all-packages. (#309064)

[hrdinka]

@SuperSamus thanks a lot for continuously updating this package! As always I am very happy about your contribution.

Regarding the shaderc patch: IMHO it should be overriden in all-packages.nix. There are many other packages doing it this way as well. The pcsx2 derivation should be agnostic of its input and not try to override them, it cannot know what exact derivations are passed as input. It should basically just ask for a shaderc package and be happy with whatever it gets. The caller should make sure to pass the right one. If a package needs a special version of an input, it is always done via callPackage in all-packages.nix and this here is not different.

Further a fetch* variant should be preferred and used whenever possible like in the duckstation PR to not bloat nixpkgs unnecessarily.

I would however not be happy about moving it to the bottom in all-packages.nix like it was proposed in the duckstation PR. I appreciate its good intentions but in the end this will mess up the ordering in all-packages.nix even more since I expect only few people to notice and adhere to it. In the light of RCF140, eventually all default package calls will be removed from all-packages.nix anyway.

Some minor cleanup.

Besides, LGTM

P.S.: we should have a team for emulators.

Tested locally. Thanks to everyone and thanks @SuperSamus for maintaining pcsx2 🙂

I had to dismiss the outdated review which blocked the merge.
