Improve the pip.parse API to allow for incremental building of the configuration #2747

Description

@aignas

Currently the API for defining different parameters by target platform is not ideal and we need to jump over hoops whilst trying to maintain it. The main difficulties are:

  • We would like to specify different pip.parse attributes per target platform, but we cannot, because some of the parameters need to be labels, label lists or other.
  • We cannot have overrides for these things easily and the definitions of what those target platforms are are hard-coded in the code.

The idea that I have is to reuse the same recipe from #2578, where we create a builder for the configuration and it allows us easily define:

What is more the override API could be blended in more easily to provide better support for specifying different, patches, etc.
