  1. config, src: enable nimPreviewSlimSystem

    From the Nim 2.0.0 detailed changelog [1]:
    
        - Certain definitions from the default `system` module have been moved to
          the following new modules:
    
          - `std/syncio`
          - `std/assertions`
          - `std/formatfloat`
          - `std/objectdollar`
          - `std/widestrs`
          - `std/typedthreads`
          - `std/sysatomics`
    
          In the future, these definitions will be removed from the `system` module,
          and their respective modules will have to be imported to use them.
          Currently, to make these imports required, the `-d:nimPreviewSlimSystem` option
          may be used.
    
        - Enabling `-d:nimPreviewSlimSystem` also removes the following deprecated
          symbols in the `system` module:
          - Aliases with an `Error` suffix to exception types that have a `Defect` suffix
            (see [exceptions](https://nim-lang.github.io/Nim/exceptions.html)):
            `ArithmeticError`, `DivByZeroError`, `OverflowError`,
            `AccessViolationError`, `AssertionError`, `OutOfMemError`, `IndexError`,
            `FieldError`, `RangeError`, `StackOverflowError`, `ReraiseError`,
            `ObjectAssignmentError`, `ObjectConversionError`, `FloatingPointError`,
            `FloatOverflowError`, `FloatUnderflowError`, `FloatInexactError`,
            `DeadThreadError`, `NilAccessError`
          - `addQuitProc`, replaced by `exitprocs.addExitProc`
          - Legacy unsigned conversion operations: `ze`, `ze64`, `toU8`, `toU16`, `toU32`
          - `TaintedString`, formerly a distinct alias to `string`
          - `PInt32`, `PInt64`, `PFloat32`, `PFloat64`, aliases to
            `ptr int32`, `ptr int64`, `ptr float32`, `ptr float64`
    
        - Enabling `-d:nimPreviewSlimSystem` removes the import of `channels_builtin` in
          in the `system` module, which is replaced by `threading/channels`. Use the
          command `nimble install threading` and import `threading/channels`.
