Revert "nixos/specialisation: Rephrase in terms of extendModules, noUserModules"

This reverts commit e2bea4427b.

While this commit was probably fine, I want to be conservative
with changes right before the release branch-off.
So far the extendModules commits have been adding and refactoring
expressions that did not affect derivation hashes, whereas this
commit changes the module ordering. I will open a separate PR for
it.
