Cleanup (#17)

* rename eval-format.nix to nixos-generate.nix

Make it clear that it's meant to be used by the nixos-generate script

* rename config.nix to configuration.nix

Bring the name closer to /etc/nixos/configuration.nix

* fix the NIXOS_CONFIG

this is the env name that nixos-rebuild uses

* use -I to load the configuration and format

This has a nice side-effect of allowing URLs as configuration

* add Travis CI

* cleanSource

* gitignore nix result files

* use modulesPath everywhere

this makes sure that the passed pkgs in nixos-generate.nix is the same
one we use to load these other modules

* use toString to avoid evaluation error

 The nixos-generators project allows to take the same NixOS configuration, and
 generate outputs for different target formats.
