feat(nix): allow override of RUSTFLAGS for certain features

- enabling the `http3` features requires unstable features, namely `reqwest_unstable`
- the main suggestion of cargo is to enable this through RUSTFLAGS
- we had no way to customize RUSTFLAGS, now we do
- changed the max-perf package to showcase this feature
- also turn on http3 by default in both max-perf and the default build
  (jade approved this)
