In preparation for the deprecation of `stdenv.isX`.
These shorthands are not conducive to cross-compilation because they
hide the platforms.
Darwin might get cross-compilation for which the continued usage of `stdenv.isDarwin` will get in the way
One example of why this is bad and especially affects compiler packages
https://www.github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/343059
There are too many files to go through manually but a treewide should
get users thinking when they see a `hostPlatform.isX` in a place where it
doesn't make sense.

The previous upstream has been dead for six years; this fork is by
Linux kernel developer Wolfram Sang, and is already used by Fedora,
openSUSE, and Buildroot.
This focuses on Rust packages, since the most commonly used argument
parser library (clap/structopt) makes the following pattern natural and
thus common:
postInstall = ''
installShellCompletion --cmd foo \
--bash <($out/bin/foo completion bash) \
…
This commit just guards those with
lib.optionalString (stdenv.buildPlatform.canExecute stdenv.hostPlatform)
splitting the string where unrelated actions are performed.
