Eelco has made several early contributions to NixOS including writing
the samba module among other things, but is more or less inactive these

By my brief inspection, he has not committed to the nixos/ tree since
releasing Nix 2.13 in early 2023 and merging a PR to networking tests
slightly before that. A lot of these tests/modules are actually
unmaintained in practice, so we should update the code to reflect the
practical reality so someone can consider picking them up.

pathsInNixDB isn't a very accurate name when a Nix store image is
built (virtualisation.useNixStoreImage); rename it to additionalPaths,
which should be general enough to cover both cases.
