The cntr sometimes hangs until the 10-hour hydra limit. This behaviour
appears to be an edge-case related to the type of TTY in which the cntr
command runs during test execution. We can work around this by running
the command as a background job.
I additionally added a wait_for_open_port to fix nondeterministic test
failures I observed after fixing the hanging issue.

Trying to use confinement on packages providing their systemd units
with systemd.packages, for example mpd, fails with the following
error:
system-units> ln: failed to create symbolic link
'/nix/store/...-system-units/mpd.service': File exists
This is because systemd-confinement and mpd both provide a mpd.service
file through systemd.packages. (mpd got updated that way recently to
use upstream's service file)
To address this, we now place the unit file containing the bind-mounted
paths of the Nix closure into a drop-in directory instead of using the
name of a unit file directly.
This does come with the implication that the options set in the drop-in
directory won't apply if the main unit file is missing. In practice
however this should not happen for two reasons:
* The systemd-confinement module already sets additional options via
systemd.services and thus we should get a main unit file
* In the unlikely event that we don't get a main unit file regardless
of the previous point, the unit would be a no-op even if the options
of the drop-in directory would apply
Another thing to consider is the order in which those options are
merged, since systemd loads the files from the drop-in directory in
alphabetical order. So given that we have confinement.conf and
overrides.conf, the confinement options are loaded before the NixOS
overrides.
Since we're only setting the BindReadOnlyPaths option, the order isn't
that important since all those paths are merged anyway and we still
don't lose the ability to reset the option since overrides.conf comes
afterwards.

Currently the test-watch.service gets started in a loop as long as
/testpath exists, so `rm /testpath /testpath-modified` runs into a race
condition where if the service was just getting activated, it will
create /testpath-modified and make the test fail.
This is fixed by making the service RemainAfterExit so that it only
starts once, and stopping it manually after we remove /testpath.
logrotate.timer is enough for rotating logs. Enabling logrotate.service would
make the service start on every configuration switch, leading to tests failure when
logrotate is enabled.
Also update test to make sure the timer is active and runs the service
on date change.
The test was looking at the wrong interface and relying on silly
behaviour by the dummy driver, which autocreated a `dummy0` interface on
modprobe.
Fix this by making it look at the actual `foo` interface that the test
creates.
Previously the bonding driver would create an initial `bond0` interface
when it was loaded. If the network management integration used that
interface and did not recreate it, it was stuck to the default
`balance-rr` mode.
Deploying systemds modprobe.d configuration sets `max_bonds=0`, so we
don't run into that issue anymore.
Hence we now make sure that we can indeed create `bond0` with `802.3ad`
(LACP), which is a non default mode.
