This adds an empty `nix-build` command to verify that the user is
having a good Nix install. It also, as a side effect, will create the
necessary per-user `profiles` and `gcroots` directories.
Fixes#1246
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.

Using this function it is possible to make `home.file` create a
symlink to a path outside the Nix store. For example, a Home Manager
configuration containing
home.file."foo".source = config.lib.file.mkOutOfStoreSymlink ./bar;
would upon activation create a symlink `~/foo` that points to the
absolute path of the `bar` file relative the configuration file.

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 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.
Add a new 'bookmarks' option, for managing `~/.config/gtk3/bookmarks`,

browsers.

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.

Enabling this flag for a `home.file` entry causes the target to be
unconditionally overwritten. The option is not visible in
documentation for now and shouldn't be relied on for general use.

When setting values using the `git config --set` command, git formats
the file a bit differently. This changes the output so it maps to that
format.
Differences:
* each `key = value` in a section is prefixed by a tab character
* the `=` between the key and the value is surrounded by spaces

Unfortunately the document generator is not smart enough to quote the
`..` alias in the documentation which is very misleading. By making it
a literal example the quotes stay.
