I'm well aware that this issue is currently under discussion[1] and that
these things may change. Also, please don't misinterpret this as an
attempt to end the discussion.
This topic made it obvious that people are surprised by the way this
issue is handled and only finding out about this unwritten rule because
of asking is not a good state IMHO, so I decided to document the
following things:
* Right now we drop kernels as soon as they get out of maintenance (LTS
kernels even before the next stable NixOS that will exceed their
lifespan).
* The `latestCompatibleLinuxPackages` attribute from ZFS isn't
monotonic since latest only refers to the latest supported kernel.
* In fact `latestCompatibleLinuxPackages` doesn't seem to be documented
at all in the manual, so I also did that.

Adds a new option for backup jobs `inhibitsSleep` which prevents
the system from going to sleep while a backup is in progress.
Uses `systemd-inhibit`, which holds a "lock" that prevents the
system from sleeping while the process it invokes is running.
This did require wrapping the existing backup script using
`writeShellScript` so that it could be run by `systemd-inhibit`.
Changes sgx-psw to append `aesm` to `LD_LIBRARY_PATH`:
- Append instead of prepend to allow for overriding in service config
- As we already add a wrapper to add `aesm` to `LD_LIBRARY_PATH` it is
not necessary to also set in `LD_LIBRARY_PATH` of the systemd service.

Pin the `nixpkgs` registry entry to the *filtered* nixpkgs source to
avoid copying the entire `.git` directory to the ISO when building
from a local checkout.
Also set `to` directly instead of the `flake.outPath` hack.
The tests would fail after migrating to `buildNpmPackage`, likely
because we are now using nodejs 18.
