1350e522fa nixos-generate-config: Fix generated hostPlatform.system
While the intent of the code was correct, the system string can not be used
in the substituteAll function.

c68a5bb85a nixos/iso-image: enable BIOS boot by default if possible
The change introduced in commit e5b072eca1
breaks backwards compatibility for some users, see
e5b072eca1 (commitcomment-113775008)
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/219351#discussion_r1139773448

This change updates the implementation to enable BIOS boot if possible
for the build and host platforms, and also assert that BIOS boot is not
enabled for non-x86 host platforms.

nixos/netboot: add squashfsCompression option
This is copied from isoImage.squashfsCompression.  It's useful to be
able to customise, as iteration cycles are very slow with xz, and
subjectively systems booted with less efficiently compressed squashfs
stores appear to have faster reads (although I didn't test that
scientificly so there could be other factors).

4787ebf7ae nixos/hidpi: remove
The single option tries to do too much work, which just ends up confusing people.

So:
- don't force the console font, the kernel can figure this out as of #210205
- don't force the systemd-boot mode, it's an awkward mode that's not supported
  on most things and will break flicker-free boot
- add a separate option for the xorg cursor scaling trick and move it under the xorg namespace
- add a general `fonts.optimizeForVeryHighDPI` option that explicitly says what it does
- alias the old option to that
- don't set any of those automatically in nixos-generate-config

nixos-generate-config: update microcode only on bare metal
Guest operating systems inside VMs or containers can't update the host CPU's microcode for obvious security reasons, so setting the `hardware.cpu.*.updateMicrocode` options is pointless.

e5b072eca1 nixos/iso-image: add an option to disable BIOS boot
This change adds an option to disable legacy BIOS boot support for ISO
images. The implementation uses syslinux package that currently does not
support non-x86 platforms and thus cannot be cross-compiled, e.g. from
AArch64 system.

f99e8bafe6 nixos/installer: add sd-image-powerpc64le.nix
This builds on top of nixpkgs mainline 00d8347180
with the following two PRs cherry-picked:

- https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/192670
- https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/192668

using the following command:

```
nix build -f nixos -L \
  -I nixos-config=nixos/modules/installer/sd-card/sd-image-powerpc64le.nix \
  config.system.build.sdImage
```

I was able to successfully boot the image, although it boots to a login prompt
rather than a shell, and won't accept the empty password for `root`.  I guess
I'll have to figure out why that is.

To boot the image: `zstd`-decompress the it, mount it, and use `kexec`:

```
cd boot/nixos
kexec -l \
  *-vmlinux \
  --initrd *-initrd \
  --dt-no-old-root \
  --command-line="$(grep APPEND ../extlinux/extlinux.conf | sed 's_^ *APPEND *__')"
```

The machine I used for testing has only one storage device which is completely
allocated to LVM.  It appears that the NixOS ISO loader doesn't look for
partition tables within LVM volumes.  To work aroundn this, I had to extract the
`ext4` image within the partition table within the `sd-card` image and put that
in its own LVM volume.  This likely won't be an obstacle for users who write the
image to a USB stick or similar.

b1bb9bb6c8 treewide: fix backwards smart apostrophes
According to the Unicode Standard, you should use U+2019 RIGHT SINGLE
QUOTATION MARK for apostrophes [1]. Before this change, some of the text
in this repo would use U+2018 LEFT SINGLE QUOTATION MARKs instead.

nixos-install: remove root requirement for bind mount
This moves the creation of the bind mount inside the `nixos-enter`
invocation. The command are executed in an unshared mount namespace, so
they can be run as an unprivileged user.

nixos-install: fix missing initrd.secrets paths
When installing NixOS in the target filesystem /mnt, paths relative to
configuration.nix in `initrd.secrets` are turned by Nix into absolute
paths that reference /mnt. While building the system derivation works,
installing the bootloader fails because the latter process takes place
inside the chroot environment where /mnt does not exist.

Ideally, we would also build the system within chroot, but this greatly
complicates the matter as it requires  manually copying over Nix, its
runtime dependencies and all channels. Possibly, this would also break
several assumptions users have about how nixos-install works.

A simpler and safer (but less neat) solution is to temporarily bind
mount all mount points in /mnt under /mnt/mnt to keep the paths
functional while the bootloader is being installed.
This is essentially the workaround described in issue #73404.
