399732b449 buildPerlPackage: don't mess with pname and phase out use of name
Currently `buildPerlPackage` prefixes the Perl version to the package's
`pname`, which results in `nix run` not being able to work for any
packages build with it out of the box. This commit corrects that and
phases out the ability to set `name` directly, as well as refactors the
code to not require `cleanedAttrs`.

8f94a33b38 treewide: ensure pre/post phase hooks are strings
Some derivations use lib.optional or lib.optionals when setting pre/post
phase hooks. Ensure the proper lib.optionalString is used.

doc: add function argument order convention (#110060)
* doc: add function argument order convention

Ordering by usage is the de facto ordering given to arguments. It's
logical, and makes finding argument usage easier. Putting lib first is
common in NixOS modules, so it's reasonable to mirror this in nixpkgs
proper. Additionally, it's not a package as such, has zero dependencies,
and can be found used anywhere in a derivation.

b0c1583a0b doc: stdenv.lib -> lib
Part of: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/108938

Changing the documentation to not refer to stdenv.lib is the first
step to make people use it directly.
