Takes the extended features of nix substituteAll to a replaceVars
variant to get rid of those cases that use substituteAll to build a full
package with meta information etc.
This allows users to simply enable support for all hardware by enabling the option `hardware.enableAllHardware`, instead of having to import `modules/profiles/all-hardware.nix`.
This is better, as the enableAllHardware option will be discoverable via search.nixos.org, while the `all-hardware.nix` is hidden inside nixpkgs and hard to discover.
Backward compatibility is provided by replacing the old `profiles/all-hardware.nix` with a file that sets the `enableAllHardware` option to true.
After final improvements to the official formatter implementation,
this commit now performs the first treewide reformat of Nix files using it.
This is part of the implementation of RFC 166.
Only "inactive" files are reformatted, meaning only files that
aren't being touched by any PR with activity in the past 2 months.
This is to avoid conflicts for PRs that might soon be merged.
Later we can do a full treewide reformat to get the rest,
which should not cause as many conflicts.
A CI check has already been running for some time to ensure that new and
already-formatted files are formatted, so the files being reformatted here
should also stay formatted.

E.g. when overriding `nix` with `pkgs.lix`, `nixos-option` will fail.
Given that I haven't used it in a very long time, I wanted to disable
it, but finding an option to turn off `nixos-option` is kinda hard given
that the options are generated here using `mkToolModule`.
I assumed that this isn't possible until I learned that
`system.tools.X.enable` exists. To me, this is a clear sign that these
shouldn't be internal.
Raspberry Pi 0 was stuck at rainbow image on hdmi
output and was not booting.
Both dtbs are needed _and_ the enable_uart=1. Any
of them missing leaves RPI0 stuck at the rainbow
image.
This is no longer referenced anywhere and so will inevitably bitrot,
and doesn’t do anything that isn’t simple to achieve with the
module documentation.
Make sure that when re-assigning an overridden derivation to system.build.*,
the overridden derivation is also the one that ends up in
environment.systemPackages.
The Firefox module installs and enables the selected locale whereas the
Firefox package just uses the default locale. Hence, Firefox's language
was still English even when choosing a language other than English.
I have no idea what this escape sequence even is, but it breaks the nix parser with cryptic errors if not used in a comment.
A friend let me know MacOS is prone to input weird spaces, not sure if that is the source.
Candidates were located and created with:
chr="$(echo -e '\xc2\xa0')"; rg -F "$chr" -l | xe sd -F "$chr" " "
There are some examples left, most being example output from `tree` in various markdown documents, some patches which we can't really touch, and `pkgs/tools/nix/nixos-render-docs/src/tests/test_commonmark.py` which I'm not sure if should be addressed
4b836fb680 added `pkgs.grub2_efi` to `environment.systemPackages` so that it would be in the Nix store and available for install. But `pkgs.grub2` is already in the list. This causes the various paths of the two GRUB2 versions to collide. To fix this, put `pkgs.grub2_efi` into `system.extraDependencies` instead. This should achieve the same effect of adding the second GRUB2 version to the Nix store without the paths colliding in the environment.
To reproduce the problem, execute `nix-build nixos -I nixos-config=nixos/modules/installer/cd-dvd/iso-image.nix -A config.system.build.isoImage` and look for messages like
```
warning: collision between `/nix/store/9jk1p9n5dl431lcm4w9p6x6x8a00dm0q-grub-2.12/bin/grub-install' and `/nix/store/809l0i6aydg4zhn3kqf723brjyp2qm8h-grub-2.12/bin/grub-install'
```
