So skip these on non-Linux
Using getOutput prevents eval failures on other platforms.

got broken in 6ea1a2a1be which changed
runCommandCC to runCommand but was not
noticed because it was failing silently
runCommand doesn't include CC or bintools
Example 10. of man page of systemd.network(5) shows:
```
Example 10. MacVTap
This brings up a network interface "macvtap-test" and attaches it to "enp0s25".
# /usr/lib/systemd/network/25-macvtap.network
[Match]
Name=enp0s25
[Network]
MACVTAP=macvtap-test
```
Which is a MACVTAP example and is currently unsupported in NixOS.
This is useful for people using "modern" technologies with virtual machines.
The whole option set was recommended against since mid-2019, and never
worked with the Raspberry Pi 4 family of devices.
We should have deprecated it in early 2020 for removal by 2021. At the
time I did not feel confident in making such a decision, and never
ended-up getting around to it.
The ***only*** supported-by-NixOS boot methods for AArch64 are
standards-based boot methods, namely UEFI or the pragmatically
almost-standard extlinux-compatible for U-Boot.
You can quote me on that.
According to networkd netdev's manpage:
```
Independent=
Takes a boolean. When true, the vxlan interface is created without any underlying network interface. Defaults to false, which means that a .network
file that requests this VXLAN interface using VXLAN= is required for the VXLAN to be created.
```
is a valid option for [VXLAN] section.
According to systemd.netdev manpage:
```
MACAddress=
Specifies the MAC address to use for the device, or takes the special value "none". When "none", systemd-networkd does not request the MAC address for
the device, and the kernel will assign a random MAC address. For "tun", "tap", or "l2tp" devices, the MACAddress= setting in the [NetDev] section is
not supported and will be ignored. Please specify it in the [Link] section of the corresponding systemd.network(5) file. If this option is not set,
"vlan" device inherits the MAC address of the master interface. For other kind of netdevs, if this option is not set, then the MAC address is
generated based on the interface name and the machine-id(5).
Note, even if "none" is specified, systemd-udevd will assign the persistent MAC address for the device, as 99-default.link has
MACAddressPolicy=persistent. So, it is also necessary to create a custom .link file for the device, if the MAC address assignment is not desired.
```
Therefore, `none` is an acceptable value.
These variables were previously used by the activation script
build commands, but are now embedded into those commands for
to improve reusability for an upcoming addition.
Without this change, GRUB installation on non-PC systems (such as
aarch64-linux) only works if boot.loader.grub.devices is set to exactly
`["nodev"]`. If boot.loader.grub.devices was any other value (including
the default `[]`), users got the error:
Died at /nix/store/an9ngv2vg95bdcy0ifsxlbkasprm4dcw-install-grub.pl line 586.
install-grub.pl verifies that if both $grub and $grubEfi are set, then
$grubTarget (e.g. i386-pc) and $grubTargetEfi (e.g. x86_64-efi) must
both be set, or the script will `die`. On non-PC systems, $grubTarget
is "".
When boot.loader.grub.devices is ["nodev"], $grub is set to null,
disabling non-EFI installation. But if a user has devices set for an
x86_64 config, or is using only mirroredBoots without setting devices,
they will hit this `die`.
This change sets $grub to "" if $grubTarget is "".
This helps with understanding the code.
We might make this not depend on environment variables later.
systemBuilderArgs is a form of global state, which isn't helpful.
