  /* Creates an Option attribute set for an option that specifies the

     package a module should use for some purpose.

     The package is specified as a list of strings representing its attribute path in nixpkgs.

     Type: mkPackageOption :: pkgs -> (string|[string]) ->

      { default? :: [string], example? :: null|string|[string], extraDescription? :: string } ->

      option

     Because of this, you need to pass nixpkgs itself as the first argument.

     The package is specified in the third argument under `default` as a list of strings

     representing its attribute path in nixpkgs (or another package set).

     Because of this, you need to pass nixpkgs itself (or a subset) as the first argument.

     The second argument is the name of the option, used in the description "The <name> package to use.".

     The second argument may be either a string or a list of strings.

     It provides the display name of the package in the description of the generated option

     (using only the last element if the passed value is a list)

     and serves as the fallback value for the `default` argument.

     You can also pass an example value, either a literal string or a package's attribute path.

     To include extra information in the description, pass `extraDescription` to

     append arbitrary text to the generated description.

     You can also pass an `example` value, either a literal string or an attribute path.

     You can omit the default path if the name of the option is also attribute path in nixpkgs.

     The default argument can be omitted if the provided name is

     an attribute of pkgs (if name is a string) or a

     valid attribute path in pkgs (if name is a list).

     Type: mkPackageOption :: pkgs -> string -> { default :: [string]; example :: null | string | [string]; } -> option

     If you wish to explicitly provide no default, pass `null` as `default`.

     Example:

       mkPackageOption pkgs "hello" { }

         example = "pkgs.haskell.packages.ghc92.ghc.withPackages (hkgs: [ hkgs.primes ])";

       }

       => { _type = "option"; default = «derivation /nix/store/jxx55cxsjrf8kyh3fp2ya17q99w7541r-ghc-8.10.7.drv»; defaultText = { ... }; description = "The GHC package to use."; example = { ... }; type = { ... }; }

     Example:

       mkPackageOption pkgs [ "python39Packages" "pytorch" ] {

         extraDescription = "This is an example and doesn't actually do anything.";

       }

       => { _type = "option"; default = «derivation /nix/store/gvqgsnc4fif9whvwd9ppa568yxbkmvk8-python3.9-pytorch-1.10.2.drv»; defaultText = { ... }; description = "The pytorch package to use. This is an example and doesn't actually do anything."; type = { ... }; }

**Note**: You shouldn’t necessarily make package options for all of your modules. You can always overwrite a specific package throughout nixpkgs by using [nixpkgs overlays](https://nixos.org/manual/nixpkgs/stable/#chap-overlays).

The default package is specified as a list of strings representing its attribute path in nixpkgs. Because of this, you need to pass nixpkgs itself as the first argument.

The package is specified in the third argument under `default` as a list of strings

representing its attribute path in nixpkgs (or another package set).

Because of this, you need to pass nixpkgs itself (or a subset) as the first argument.

The second argument is the name of the option, used in the description "The \<name\> package to use.". You can also pass an example value, either a literal string or a package's attribute path.

The second argument may be either a string or a list of strings.

It provides the display name of the package in the description of the generated option

(using only the last element if the passed value is a list)

and serves as the fallback value for the `default` argument.

You can omit the default path if the name of the option is also attribute path in nixpkgs.

To include extra information in the description, pass `extraDescription` to

append arbitrary text to the generated description.

You can also pass an `example` value, either a literal string or an attribute path.

The default argument can be omitted if the provided name is

an attribute of pkgs (if name is a string) or a

valid attribute path in pkgs (if name is a list).

If you wish to explicitly provide no default, pass `null` as `default`.

During the transition to CommonMark documentation `mkPackageOption` creates an option with a DocBook description attribute, once the transition is completed it will create a CommonMark description instead. `mkPackageOptionMD` always creates an option with a CommonMark description attribute and will be removed some time after the transition is completed.
