uutils-coreutils: init at 2018-02-09
`uutils-coreutils` is an a cross-platform rewrite of GNU/coreutils based on Rust. It aims to increase portability and improve Windows support (see https://github.com/uutils/coreutils#why). Since the derivation provides the same binaries as `coreutils` does a `prefix` argument as been added to the function to avoid any conflicts that can be used like this: ``` nix self: super: { uutils-coreutils = self.uutils-coreutils.override { prefix = "uutils"; }; } ``` Resolves #28114 /cc @NeQuissimus ----- Important notice: the patch depends on #34505 which needs to be merged *FIRST* as it fixes a bug in the `rustc` setup of nixpkgs (see the PR's discussion and https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/commit/5c9665f41c6b4d3b99d3b9f8b48a286f5f154692#commitcomment-27271420 for further reference).
