Motivation for this change

This is to partially address #72964.

This follows up from #76171 to add a way to disable the linter for
NixOS tests using the Python driver, without printing a warning to the
console, as skipLint does. Linting is skipped if either skipLint or
the new skipLintSilently option are true, but a warning about skipping
is only printed if skipLintSilently is false.

This is meant to allow running tests during development, or outside of
Nixpkgs, without forcing unnecessary work to conform to a style guide
when it's not relevant.

skipLintSilently is not meant to be used for merged to Nixpkgs main,
non-feature branches.

I'm open to combining these two parameters or having some other way
to pass them in, I more just want a way to turn off a stream of

trace: warning: Linting is disabled!
trace: warning: Linting is disabled!
trace: warning: Linting is disabled!
...

messages I see when building a bunch of tests with linting disabled.

Things done
  • Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS linux)
  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • macOS
    • other Linux distributions
  • Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nixpkgs-review --run "nixpkgs-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Determined the impact on package closure size (by running nix path-info -S before and after)
  • Ensured that relevant documentation is up to date
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

I'm not sure adding yet another option to disable linting entirely is the right way to approach this, and would rather prefer if we'd have a discussion about how/what linting we want to have in #72964.

I would agree with that

Closing as this isn't needed, Black already offers a way with # fmt: off.
