7b0e0ca35e nixos-install-tools: init
The essential commands from the NixOS installer as a package

With this package, you get the commands like nixos-generate-config and
nixos-install that you would otherwise only find on a NixOS system, such
as an installer image.

This way, you can install NixOS using a machine that only has Nix.

It also includes the manpages, which are important because the commands
rely on those for providing --help.

be0555b8a8 nixos/doc: Add note about /usr/sbin and /sbin
An installation from Debian buster may fail without adding /usr/sbin to
$PATH because chroot is not in the PATH of a non-root user.

not require to be executed by bash.
