Adapt to changes introduced in Systemd 250:

Replaces the `dhcpV6PrefixDelegationConfig` with
`dhcpPrefixDelegationConfig` and throws an error if the old option is
used.
Also adapt the respective IPv6 prefix delegation test.
now nix-doc-munge will not introduce whitespace changes when it replaces
manpage references with the MD equivalent.
no change to the manpage, changes to the HTML manual are whitespace only.
make (almost) all links appear on only a single line, with no
unnecessary whitespace, using double quotes for attributes. this lets us
automatically convert them to markdown easily.
the few remaining links are extremely long link in a gnome module, we'll
come back to those at a later date.
the conversion procedure is simple:
- find all things that look like options, ie calls to either `mkOption`
or `lib.mkOption` that take an attrset. remember the attrset as the
option
- for all options, find a `description` attribute who's value is not a
call to `mdDoc` or `lib.mdDoc`
- textually convert the entire value of the attribute to MD with a few
simple regexes (the set from mdize-module.sh)
- if the change produced a change in the manual output, discard
- if the change kept the manual unchanged, add some text to the
description to make sure we've actually found an option. if the
manual changes this time, keep the converted description
this procedure converts 80% of nixos options to markdown. around 2000
options remain to be inspected, but most of those fail the "does not
change the manual output check": currently the MD conversion process
does not faithfully convert docbook tags like <code> and <package>, so
any option using such tags will not be converted at all.
The networkd.conf file controls a variety of interesting settings
which don't seem to be configurable at the moment, including
adding names to route tables (for networkd only, although this commit
also exports them into iproute2 for convenience's sake), and
the speed metering functionality built into networkd.
Importantly, however, this also allows disabling the systemd
functionality where it likes to delete all the routes and routing rules
that haven't been configured through networkd whenever something causes
it to perform a reconfiguration.
As of systemd/systemd@e908434458,
systemd-networkd now automatically configures routes to addresses
specified in AllowedIPs unless explicitly disabled with
"RouteTable=off".
Add `systemd.network.networks.*.dhcpServerStaticLeaseConfig` to allow
for configuring static DHCP leases through the `[DHCPServerStaticLease]`
section. See systemd.network(5) of systemd 249 for details.
Also adds the NixOS test `systemd-networkd-dhcpserver-static-lease` to
test the assignment of static leases.
allows configuration of foo-over-udp decapsulation endpoints. sadly networkd
seems to lack the features necessary to support local and peer address
configuration, so those are only supported when using scripted configuration.
`systemd.network.networks.*.dhcpServerConfig` did not accept all of
the options which are valid for networkd's [DHCPServer] section. See
systemd.network(5) of systemd 247 for details.
networkd's [IPv6PrefixDelegation] section and IPv6PrefixDelegation=
options have been renamed as [IPv6SendRA] and IPv6SendRA= in systemd
247.
Throws if the deprecated option ipv6PrefixDelegationConfig is used.
