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.

Regardless of mutable or immutable users, systemd-sysupdate never
updates existing user records and thus will for example never change
passwords for you.
It only support initial passwords and now actively asserts agains other
paswords.
On Linux we cannot feasbibly generate users statically because we need
to take care to not change or re-use UIDs over the lifetime of a machine
(i.e. over multiple generations). This means we need the context of the
running machine.
Thus, stop creating users statically and instead generate them at
runtime irrespective of mutableUsers.
When /etc is immutable, the password files (e.g. /etc/passwd etc.) are
created in a separate directory (/var/lib/nixos/etc). /etc will be
pre-populated with symlinks to this separate directory.
Immutable users are now implemented by bind-mounting the password files
read-only onto themselves and only briefly re-mounting them writable to
re-execute sysusers. The biggest limitation of this design is that you
now need to manually unmount this bind mount to change passwords because
sysusers cannot change passwords for you. This shouldn't be too much of
an issue because system users should only rarely need to change their
passwords.
systemd-sysusers cannot create normal users (i.e. with a UID > 1000).
Thus we stop trying an explitily only use systemd-sysusers when there
are no normal users on the system (e.g. appliances).
these changes were generated with nixq 0.0.2, by running
nixq ">> lib.mdDoc[remove] Argument[keep]" --batchmode nixos/**.nix
nixq ">> mdDoc[remove] Argument[keep]" --batchmode nixos/**.nix
nixq ">> Inherit >> mdDoc[remove]" --batchmode nixos/**.nix
two mentions of the mdDoc function remain in nixos/, both of which
are inside of comments.
Since lib.mdDoc is already defined as just id, this commit is a no-op as
far as Nix (and the built manual) is concerned.
