Motivation for this change

The package-option is always useful if modifying a package in an
overlay would mean that a lot of other packages need to be rebuilt as
well.

In case of sudo this is actually the case: when having an override for
it (e.g. for withInsults = true;), you'd have to rebuild e.g. zfs
and grub although that's not strictly needed.

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.

The `package`-option is always useful if modifying a package in an
overlay would mean that a lot of other packages need to be rebuilt as
well.

In case of `sudo` this is actually the case: when having an override for
it (e.g. for `withInsults = true;`), you'd have to rebuild e.g. `zfs`
and `grub` although that's not strictly needed.
