Using the `nix-env` command is far more robust. It also has the
benefit that if the per-user `profiles` and `gcroots` directories do
not exist then they will be created with the correct permissions.
Because of the second point this commit also removes the `mkdir` step
of the installation instructions.

Otherwise, the pager (typically `less`) pauses execution of
`home-manager switch` until the pager is dismissed, if the content is
larger than would fit on the screen.

This option used to make the `home-manager` command use the `nix` tool
from Nix 2. Unfortunately the `nix` tool is a bit experimental and it
is best to await its stabilization before supporting it in Home
Manager.
This switches the type of `matchBlocks` from `loaOf` to `listOrDagOf`.
The former has been deprecated in Nixpkgs. The latter allows
dependencies between entries to be expressed using the DAG functions.
Specifically, trigger NUR updates for all release branches by default.
Also updates the GitLab CI definition to use the new `rules` attribute
rather than the deprecated `only` attribute.
Add a new 'bookmarks' option, for managing `~/.config/gtk3/bookmarks`,
a list of URIs to display as bookmarks in the sidebar of GTK file
browsers.

It can be useful to simply instantiate a Home Manager configuration
without actually building it, for example for the purpose of
pre-building it with some custom command.
PR #1099
Nixpkgs no longer packages compton, and instead packages picom, a
(mostly) compatible fork of compton, providing an alias from compton
to picom. Because some configuration options have been changed, and
all references to "compton" have been made deprecated and replaced
with "picom", 'services.compton' has been deprecated in favor of the
new 'services.picom'.

- Pass arguments verbatim to the `systemctl` subprocess, obviating the
need for shell escaping.
- Use open3 for capturing subprocess output.
- Fix printing of commands during dry run.
- Simplify `X-RestartIfChanged` regular expression.
1. Use \s to match whitespace, \b to match a word boundary.
2. Rename variable to conform to Ruby's underscore naming
conventions.
- Remove no-op set operation. Specifically, 'no_restart' and 'to_stop'
are disjunct since
1. After reloading the daemon with the new generation, units in
'to_stop' (i.e. units from the old gen that are missing in the
new gen) are not registered anymore in the systemd daemon.
2. Hence, 'systemctl cat' returns no output for these units.
3. Because this output is needed to detect 'no_restart' units,
'no_restart' includes no units from 'to_stop'.
So 'to_stop -= to_restart' is a no-op.
- Only notify about units that would otherwise be restarted. That is,
exclude units that are started but not restarted.
- Previously, all inactive units, like short-running services, were
handled as failed units.
Now systemd activation doesn't fail for oneshot services like
'setxkbmap' while 'servicesStartTimeoutMs' is set.
- Don't start unchanged oneshot services.
