This allows Plymouth to show the “NixOS 21.03” label under the logo at
startup like it already does at shutdown.
Fixes#59992.

Renaming an interface must be done in stage-1: otherwise udev will
report the interface as ready and network daemons (networkd, dhcpcd,
etc.) will bring it up. Once up the interface can't be changed and the
renaming will fail.
Note: link files are read directly by udev, so they can be used even
without networkd enabled.
It was introduced in c10fe14 but removed in c4f910f.
It remained such that people with older generations in their boot
entries could still boot those. Given that the parameter hasn't had any
use in quite some years, it seems safe to remove now.
Fixes#60184
`unitOption` is only used inside of `attrsOf` wich is perfectly capable of
handling the attrsets from `mkIf`, though the checkUnitConfig test
forbids it. This commit weakens that restriction to allow the usage of
`mkIf` inside of `systemd.services.<name>.serviceConfig.<something>`
etc.
The `platform` field is pointless nesting: it's just stuff that happens
to be defined together, and that should be an implementation detail.
This instead makes `linux-kernel` and `gcc` top level fields in platform
configs. They join `rustc` there [all are optional], which was put there
and not in `platform` in anticipation of a change like this.
`linux-kernel.arch` in particular also becomes `linuxArch`, to match the
other `*Arch`es.
The next step after is this to combine the *specific* machines from
`lib.systems.platforms` with `lib.systems.examples`, keeping just the
"multiplatform" ones for defaulting.
Declaring them as lists enables the concatenation, supporting
lib.mkBefore, lib.mkOrder, etc.
This is useful when you need to extend a service with a pre-start
script that needs to run as root.
Originally, changes to the kernel don't propagate to the other
derivation within the same package set. This commit allows for the
changes in the kernel to be propagated.
A distinct example is setting `boot.kernel.randstructSeed` to a non-zero
length string which would result in building 2 kernels, one with the
correct seed and the other with the zero length seed. Then, when using
an out-of-tree kernel driver, it would be built with the zero length
seed which differs from the non-zero length seed used to boot,
contradicting the purpose of the `boot.kernel.randstructSeed`.
For in NixOS it is beneficial if both plasma5 and pam use the same Qt5
version. Because the plasma5 desktop may use a different version as the
default Qt5 version, we introduce plasma5Packages.
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/107497 broke booting on many systems that
use tmpOnTmpfs due to the lack of specifying the mount type.
This commit explicitly adds the mount type, which should fix booting
such systems.
The original change may want to be revisited however too.
