Description of changes
Since #281374, the nixpkgs-check-by-name tooling is pinned to a specific /nix/store path to avoid having to evaluate Nixpkgs in CI.
The same path is used for local runs, but that doesn't actually work when you're trying to run it on a platform different from CI:
This PR makes it work by being clearer about platforms and making local runs check out the correct Nixpkgs to evaluate the tool from.
