288118cdfa sd-image: Adds removed options for removed options
This will keep configuration configuring the size of the /boot partition
still build, while showing the deprecation warning.

In 99.9% of cases I assume ignoring the configuration is better, as the
sd-image builder already is pretty opinionated in that matter.

c113c094cf sd-image: Pull less slack in the image by accounting for slack
The slack, seemingly, accounted for more than the minimum required for
slack plus the two partitions.

This change makes the gap a somewhat abstracted amount, but is not
configurable within the derivation.

6e9e78b618 sd-image: Moves /boot into rootfs
The current FAT32 partition is kept as it is required for the Raspberry
Pi family of hardware. It is where the firmware is kept.

The partition is kept bootable, and the boot files kept in there until
the following commits, to keep all commits of this series individually
bootable.

8f551be935 nixos-generate-config: don't emit tmpfs entry for /tmp
Because it most likely comes from the boot.tmpOnTmpfs option in

4213e48dd9 nixos-generate-config: add dm-snapshot module if LVM is detected
Without this, the system becomes unbootable if the user creates a LVM
snapshot and reboots.

Fixes https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/33646

(The same kind of problem was fixed in RHEL a few years back:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1287940)

9e45f6feac nixos-generate-config: don't generate swapDevices for *files*
Up until now, the output has been the same for swap devices and swap
files:

  { device = "/var/swapfile"; }

Whereas for swap *files* it's easier to manage them declaratively in
configuration.nix:

  { device = "/var/swapfile"; size = 8192; }

(NixOS will create the swapfile, and later resize it, if the size
attribute is changed.)

With the assumption that swap files are specified in configuration.nix,
it's silly to output them to hardware-configuration.nix.

5d92d16b49 sd-image-aarch64: Allows early modesetting for Allwinner boards
This will reduce the confusion at boot, where the only thing visible is
the last message from u-boot; where it looks like the board is
hung, while in reality it's likely resizing partitions.

4755811a12 nixos-generate-config: add support for bcache
Add "bcache" to boot.initrd.availableKernelModules if a bcache device is
detected.

This fixes a problem I've had one too many times: I install NixOS and
forget to add "bcache", resulting in an unbootable machine (until fixed
with Live CD). Now NixOS will do it for me.

nixos-generate-config: do not build btrfs-tools when btrfs is not used
cross-compilation of `btrfs-tools` is broken, and this usually needless dependency of each system closure on `btrfs-tools` prevents cross-compilation of whole system closures

nixos/netboot: import -> callPackage
Copy-paste from iso-image.nix

Besides the simplification, it should use `pkgs.buildPackages.squashfsTools` because it is used in `nativeBuildInputs` instead of incorrect `pkgs.squashfsTools` which was forced by `import'

syslinux: change serial bit rate to 115200

0d67c6a52b syslinux: change serial bit rate to 115200
Prior to this commit an installation over serial via syslinux would
involve:
1. setting bitrate to BIOS's bitrate (typically 115200)
2. setting bitrate to syslinux's bitrate (38400)
3. setting bitrate to stty's bitrate (115200)

By changing syslinux's bitrate to 115200, an installation over serial
is a smoother experience, and consistent with the GRUB2 installation
which is also 115200 bps.

    [root@nixos:~]# stty
    speed 115200 baud; line = 0;
    -brkint ixoff iutf8
    -iexten

In a future commit I will add default serial terminals to the syslinux
kernel lines.

475c8aa018 nixos-rebuild: get Nix from channel
If our old Nix can’t evaluate the Nixpkgs channel, try the fallback
from the new channel /first/. That way we can upgrade Nix to a newer
version and support breaking changes to Nix (like seen in the upgrade
o Nix 2.0).

This change should be backported to older NixOS versions!

nixos-generate-config: Don't suggest setting a uid
This hasn't been needed for a long time, even when `mutableUsers =
false`. Setting a uid manually is potentially risky since it could
collide with non-declarative user accounts. (We do check for
collisions between declarative accounts.)

c3d22fdca1 nixos-generate-config: Include extraGroups "wheel"
I've been asked, on numerous occasions, by my students and others, how
to 'sudo' on NixOS.

Of course new users could read up in the manual on how to do that, or we
could make it more accessible for them by simply making it visible in
the default `configuration.nix` file.

Additionally, as raised in [1], replacing `guest` with something more
recognizable could be potentially beneficial to new users. I've
opted for `jane` for now.
