Since last update minio pre allocates 2GiB of memory, so the test VM
needs more than that to not run out of memory.
We also remove the time based tests as it makes the test non deterministic

The goal here was to get the following flake to build and run on
`aarch64-darwin`:
```nix
{ inputs.nixpkgs.url = <this branch>;
outputs = { nixpkgs, ... }: {
checks.aarch64-darwin.default =
nixpkgs.legacyPackages.aarch64-darwin.nixosTest {
name = "test";
nodes.machine = { };
testScript = "";
};
};
}
```
… and after this change it does. There's no longer a need for the
user to set `nodes.*.nixpkgs.pkgs` or
`nodes.*.virtualisation.host.pkgs` as the correct values are inferred
from the host system.
Without sort-keys specified on entries, the entries are sorted only by
file name (in decreasing order, so starting at the end of the alphabet!),
without taking any other fields into account (see
[the boot loader specification reference][1]).
Moreover, entries without a sort-key are always ordered after all
entries with a sort-key, so by not adding a sort-key to the NixOS ones,
we cannot add a sort-key to any other entry while keeping it below the
NixOS entries.
So currently we have options to set the file names for additional entries like
memtest and netbootxyz.
However, as mentioned above, the sorting by file name is not very intuitive and
actually sorts in the opposite order of what is currently mentioned in the option
descriptions.
With this commit, we set a configurable sort-key on all NixOS entries,
and add options for setting the sort-keys for the memtest and netbootxyz
entries.
The sorting by sort-key is more intuitive (it starts at the start of the
alphabet) and also takes into account the machine-id and version for entries
with identical sort-keys.
We use a bootspec extension to store the sort keys, which allows us to
redefine the sort key for individual specialisations without needing any
special casing.

systemd-boot-builder.py calls nix-env --list-generations which creates
$HOME/.nix-defexpr/channels/nixos if it doesn't exist. This would cause a folder
/homeless-shelter to show up in the final image which in turn breaks nix builds
in the target image if sandboxing is turned off (as /homeless-shelter is never
allowed to exist).
The `zfs` alias already has equivalent semantics. Instead, make this
like zfs_2_1 so folks who want to pin a specific release series can do
so easily and clearly to have more control over when more substantial
updates occur.
Rename all tests to match the pkg attr they are testing.
The change is insignificant when the owner is root. However, when it
is not root, this change is needed to allow using Nix (as an
unprivileged user) inside the container.
