lib.types.package: only call toDerivation when necessary
The current logic assumes that everything that isn't a derivation is a store path, but it can also be something that's *coercible* to a store path, like a flake input. Unnecessary uses of `lib.toDerivation` result in errors in pure evaluation mode when `builtins.storePath` is disabled. Also document what a `package` is.
