systemd: switch to unified cgroup hierarchy by default

See https://www.redhat.com/sysadmin/fedora-31-control-group-v2 for
details on why this is desirable, and how it impacts containers.

Users that need to keep using the old cgroup hierarchy can re-enable it
by setting `systemd.unifiedCgroupHierarchy` to `false`.

Well-known candidates not supporting that hierarchy, like docker and
hidepid=… will disable it automatically.

Fixes #73800

NixOS now defaults to the unified cgroup hierarchy (cgroupsv2).
See the <link xlink:href="https://www.redhat.com/sysadmin/fedora-31-control-group-v2">Fedora Article for 31</link>

If you want to run containers with a runtime that does not yet support cgroupsv2,
you can switch back to the old behaviour by setting
<xref linkend="opt-systemd.enableUnifiedCgroupHierarchy"/> = <literal>false</literal>;
and rebooting.
