llvmPackages_latest picks too old LLVM for ccls on macOS. Which breaks
the build.

Motivation for this change

For some reason after merging #56673 llvmPackages_latest behaviour has changed. Instead of using the actual latest version on macOS, it uses a version that has Clang 5.x which is too old for ccls.

Things done
  • Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS)
  • 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 nox --run "nox-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)
  • Assured whether relevant documentation is up to date
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

Out of interest, what does

$ nix eval '(with import <nixpkgs> {}; llvmPackages_latest.llvm.name)'

return on your machine?

This should be llvm_8 right now, so this is a downgrade to llvm_7.

So maybe the actual problem is, that it does not work with llvm 8.

Ah. That might actually be it. Maybe the version 5 thing was me misreading build output.

"llvm-8.0.0rc2" so it actually finds 8. So I guess you are correct above that the problem is with 8. So forcing to 7 is accidentally the right solution to this I guess.
