It seems like we'd want to build every package in nixpkgs except select
few (unfree non-distributable). Does this mean that we should add
packages to release.nix when adding new expressions? You say it's
somewhat deprecated, does this mean that we should remove the packages
from release.nix and instead use meta.platforms for each?
