Add explicit allRefs = true; argument to fetchGit
Sometimes it's necessary to fetch a git repository at a revision and
it's unknown which ref contains the revision in question. An example
would be a Cargo.lock which only provides the URL and the revision when
using a git repository as build input.

However it's considered a bad practice to perform a full checkout of a
repository since this may take a lot of time and can eat up a lot of
disk space. This patch makes a full checkout explicit by adding an
`allRefs` argument to `builtins.fetchGit` which fetches all refs if
explicitly set to true.

Closes #2409

Provide a more meaningful error-message for builtins.fetchGit if a revision can't be checked out
A common pitfall when using e.g. `builtins.fetchGit` is the `fatal: not
a tree object`-error when trying to fetch a revision of a git-repository
that isn't on the `master` branch and no `ref` is specified.

In order to make clear what's the problem, I added a simple check
whether the revision in question exists and if it doesn't a more
meaningful error-message is displayed:

```
nix-repl> builtins.fetchGit { url = "https://github.com/owner/myrepo"; rev = "<commit not on master>"; }
moderror: --- Error -------------------------------------------------------------------- nix
Cannot find Git revision 'bf1cc5c648e6aed7360448a3745bb2fe4fbbf0e9' in ref 'master' of repository 'https://gitlab.com/Ma27/nvim.nix'! Please make sure that the rev exists on the ref you've specified or add allRefs = true; to fetchGit.
```

Closes #2431

nix show-derivation: Say "system" instead of "platform"
There is really no good reason to use "platform" except that that's
what we use internally (also for no good reason).
