Avoids confusion: `vim-full`'s build-time features are configurable, but both
`vim` and `vim-full` are *customizable* (in the sense of user configuration).
I'm well aware that this issue is currently under discussion[1] and that
these things may change. Also, please don't misinterpret this as an
attempt to end the discussion.
This topic made it obvious that people are surprised by the way this
issue is handled and only finding out about this unwritten rule because
of asking is not a good state IMHO, so I decided to document the
following things:
* Right now we drop kernels as soon as they get out of maintenance (LTS
kernels even before the next stable NixOS that will exceed their
lifespan).
* The `latestCompatibleLinuxPackages` attribute from ZFS isn't
monotonic since latest only refers to the latest supported kernel.
* In fact `latestCompatibleLinuxPackages` doesn't seem to be documented
at all in the manual, so I also did that.

When using the declarative shared folder configuration for resilio sync
it is now possible to pass a path from which to read the secret should
be read at runtime. The path will not be added to the nix store.
The 'secret' parameter to specify the secret directly is still
supported. This option will still store the secret in the nix store.
This commit follows the pattern described in this issue, for upstream
programs that do not provide support for setting a password using a
file: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/24288
Add a section on ordering option definitions.
Also mention `mkDefault` in the section on `mkOverride`.
Clarify the code a bit by renaming `defaultPriority` to
`defaultOverridePriority` and introducing `defaultOrderPriority`.
The placement of this option under `nix` was misleading, as it is not
configuration of the Nix daemon, but rather configuration of the NixOS
boot process and how it mounts the Nix store. As such, make it an option
of `boot` to clarify what it actually affects, and imply that it will
only take effect on a reboot.
Since it no longer has the context of nix, adjust the name to include
it.
