We currently send two warnings in case of detecting dead code - W008
inside compile_dead_code, and a more detailed warning in all places that
invoke compile_dead_code:
```
warning[W007]: useless operation on boolean: this expression is always false
--> /nix/store/qz3gjn95gazab4fkb7s8lm6hz17rdzzy-414z9nnj1wy66ymq6vgb693x9xjz6hf2-nixpkgs-src/pkgs/top-level/perl-packages.nix:12079:15
|
12079 | doCheck = false && !stdenv.isDarwin;
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
warning[W008]: this code will never be executed
--> /nix/store/qz3gjn95gazab4fkb7s8lm6hz17rdzzy-414z9nnj1wy66ymq6vgb693x9xjz6hf2-nixpkgs-src/pkgs/top-level/perl-packages.nix:12079:24
|
12079 | doCheck = false && !stdenv.isDarwin;
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
```
The place invoking `compile_dead_code` has more context to why the code
is unused, so it's error message is much more useful.
Stop emitting the less informative warning inside compile_dead_code
(W008), and update the comment that we expect the caller to emit a
warning.
I kept W008 itself still around, in case we end up having places this
will get used again.
