signal-desktop: Fix the database encryption by preloading SQLCipher
AFAIK this is the only reliable way for us to ensure SQLCipher will be
loaded instead of SQLite. It feels like a hack/workaround but according
to the SQLCipher developers [0] "this issue can and should be handled
downstream at the application level: 1. While it may feel like a
workaround, using LD_PRELOAD is a legitimate approach here because it
will substitute the system SQLite with SQLCipher which is the intended
usage model;".

This fixes #108772 for NixOS 20.09 users who upgrade to NixOS 21.05 and
replaces #117555.

For nixos-unstable users this will unfortunately break everything again
so we should add a script to ease the transition (in a separate commit
so that we can revert it for NixOS 21.05).

nixos/tests/signal-desktop: test if the SQLite DB is (un)encrypted
Well, this should test if the database is encrypted but currently it is
still unencrypted and we need to notice if this behaviour changes in the
future (as it will cause data loss, see e.g. #108772).
Anyway, this doesn't really matter for security reasons but we need this
test to prevent data loss (unfortunately Signal-Desktop and SQLCipher
handle this badly... :o).

Dominik Xaver Hörl 25bef2d8f9 treewide: simplify pkgs.stdenv.lib -> pkgs.lib
The library does not depend on stdenv, that `stdenv` exposes `lib` is
an artifact of the ancient origins of nixpkgs.

Kai Harries ddd23d6790 signal-desktop: fix test
Test was broken because network is not available during sandboxed test
run and therefore the expected text was never shown.

devhell 534f1337c1 tests: Fix signal-desktop
This test fails due to OOM on the VM. Setting the memory of the VM to
1024 lets the test succeed.

worldofpeace c95612a5a2 nixos/display-managers/auto: remove
This module allows root autoLogin, so we would break that for users, but
they shouldn't be using it anyways. This gives the impression like auto
is some special display manager, when it's just lightdm and special pam
rules to allow root autoLogin. It was created for NixOS's testing
so I believe this is where it belongs.
