Motivation for this change

It may seem nice and abstract to just override the default version, but that breaks the alias relationship where the original llvmPackages_* is no longer in sync. Put another away, modifying the referee rather instead of breaking the reference "copy-on-write" is impossible.

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/)
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.
