`description` : Optional string describing the option. This is required if option documentation is generated.
`relatedPackages` : Optional related packages used in the manual (see `genRelatedPackages` in `../nixos/lib/make-options-doc/default.nix`).
`type` : Optional option type, providing type-checking and value merging.
`apply` : Optional function that converts the option value to something else.
`internal` : Optional boolean indicating whether the option is for NixOS developers only.
`visible` : Optional boolean indicating whether the option shows up in the manual. Default: true. Use false to hide the option and any sub-options from submodules. Use "shallow" to hide only sub-options.
`readOnly` : Optional boolean indicating whether the option can be set only once.
`...` (any other attribute) : Any other attribute is passed through to the resulting option attribute set.

/** Creates an Option attribute set for an option that specifies the package a module should use for some purpose.
The package is specified in the third argument under `default` as a list of strings representing its attribute path in nixpkgs (or another package set). Because of this, you need to pass nixpkgs itself (usually `pkgs` in a module; alternatively to nixpkgs itself, another package set) as the first argument.
If you pass another package set you should set the `pkgsText` option. This option is used to display the expression for the package set. It is `"pkgs"` by default. If your expression is complex you should parenthesize it, as the `pkgsText` argument is usually immediately followed by an attribute lookup (`.`).
The second argument may be either a string or a list of strings. It provides the display name of the package in the description of the generated option (using only the last element if the passed value is a list) and serves as the fallback value for the `default` argument.
To include extra information in the description, pass `extraDescription` to append arbitrary text to the generated description.
You can also pass an `example` value, either a literal string or an attribute path.
The `default` argument can be omitted if the provided name is an attribute of pkgs (if `name` is a string) or a valid attribute path in pkgs (if `name` is a list). You can also set `default` to just a string in which case it is interpreted as an attribute name (a singleton attribute path, if you will).
If you wish to explicitly provide no default, pass `null` as `default`.
If you want users to be able to set no package, pass `nullable = true`. In this mode a `default = null` will not be interpreted as no default and is interpreted literally.
# Inputs
`pkgs`
: Package set (an instantiation of nixpkgs such as pkgs in modules or another package set)
`name`
: Name for the package, shown in option description
Structured function argument : Attribute set containing the following attributes.
`nullable` : Optional whether the package can be null, for example to disable installing a package altogether. Default: `false`
`default` : Optional attribute path where the default package is located. Default: `name` If omitted will be copied from `name`
`example` : Optional string or an attribute path to use as an example. Default: `null`
`extraDescription` : Optional additional text to include in the option description. Default: `""`
`pkgsText` : Optional representation of the package set passed as pkgs. Default: `"pkgs"`
