This prevents seeing lots of warnings about missing hashes/sizes in the
database when running "nix-store --verify --check-contents" for the
first time.
The EBS and S3 (instance-store) AMIs are now created from the same
image. HVM instance-store AMIs are also generated.
Disk image generation has been factored out into a function
(nixos/lib/make-disk-image.nix) that can be used to build other kinds
of images.
This fixes#10077 because after some debugging it turns out that by
default we don't have a font which is able to display Chinese symbols.
Thanks to @anderspapitto, @kmicu and hyper_ch on IRC to help debugging
this issue, see log at:

With unifont we have a reasonable fallback font to ensure that every
written language is rendered correctly and thus less surprise for new
users who keep their font settings at the default.

Since 74209a4 we have initial support for the "vboxsf" (VirtualBox
shared folder) file system support. This will be cherry-picked to
release-15.09 so we need to notice people about the change.

There were quite a few configuration options which were tagged via
<literal/>, so in order to keep consistency with other docbook manuals
in the source tree, let's use <option/> here.

I'm not quite sure why the official Hydra gets a kernel panic in one of
two VMs using the exact same kernels:
https://hydra.nixos.org/build/26339384
Because the kernel panic happens before stage 1, let's wait for the
first VM to boot up and after the bootup is done, start the second one
in hope that it won't trigger the panic.
Oddly enough, whenever I run the test on my own Hydra and on my local
machines, I don't get anything like that.

I forgot to do this in da0e642. It shouldn't be a big problem but it's
more clean to destroy the VM once we're done testing.

We previously had 1024 MB of memory to fit a VirtualBox VM with 512 MB
plus the memory needed of the VirtualBox host VM. That obviously won't
work for two VirtualBox VMs, which are used for testing networking
between two VirtualBox guests.
Now, we have 2048 MB on the qemu guest (the VirtualBox host) and 768 MB
for each VirtualBox guest. That should be enough to fit in two
VirtualBox guests (I hope).
