Adam Joseph 81bc106e08 meta.sourceProvenance documentation: clarify it is unaffected by changes to meta.license 
This commit clarifies that the meaning of the `meta.sourceProvenance`
field is independent of and unaffected by the value of the
`meta.license` field.  This is based on the intent of the RFC author
as expressed here:

  https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/161098#issuecomment-1081270201

This clarification is added for two reasons:

1. If in the future there should be some disagreement about what
   `sourceProvenance` to assign to a package, this may help resolve
   the disagreement.  Any interpretation of `sourceProvenance` which
   is influenced by the `meta.license` is clearly an incorrect
   interpretation.

2. If it should turn out that it is impossible to disentangle
   `sourceProvenance` from `meta.license`, this would indicate the
   need for changes to the `sourceProvenance` scheme.  That change
   might be as simple as replacing the sentence added by this commit
   with some other sentence explaining how the two fields influence
   each other.

This commit implements the recommendation made in the paragraph of
this comments which begins with "Please say this explicitly...":

Valentin Gagarin 311d322feb docs: sync patchShebangs comments with manual 
this is not an actual sync, but rather the manual taking the leading role.
right now it does not make sense to actually change `patch-shebangs.sh`
as that would cause a rebuild of the entire universe.

we should figure out how to keep them aligned with minimal effort both
in terms of maintenance as well as navigation for readers.

Adam Joseph c9d66a7fff cross-compilation.chapter.md: give examples of all depFooBar cases 
This commit describes the "->" notation for dependency types in
greater detail, and uses g++ to provide examples of all six cases
(although the host->target and target->target examples are a bit
artificial).

It also adds three more rows to the table for the "->*" dependency
types for non-compiler-like packages; these dependency types were
already present in the documentation but the "*" was not really
explained.

Lastly, this commit adds a hyperlink to the table from the place where
it is mentioned in the "specifying dependencies" chapter.
