nixos-generate-config: Fix reference to <nixos>.
IIUC, <nixos> is going to be deprecated someday in the future, and as
most of those references are already replaced I guess it's safe to
replace it here as well, as it is only relevant on new/updated
installations.

Eelco Dolstra 49e73ea117 nixos-generate-config: Don't suggest setting fileSystems in configuration.nix
It's already set in hardware-configuration.nix so this just confuses
people.

Also get rid of boot.initrd.kernelModules, since
hardware-configuration.nix is supposed to figure that out as well.

nixos-rebuild: Drop references to <nixos>.
Commit 31203732b3 dropped the reference to
<nixos> from NIX_PATH (nixos/modules/programs/environment.nix) and thus
prevents systems that are not using channels from rebuilding.

nixos-generate-config: Add --show-hardware-config.
So, we get the old behaviour of nixos-hardware-scane if we run the
following command:

nixos-generate-config --no-filesystems --show-hardware-config

This allows to use scripts in order to fetch NixOS specific hardware
information, without the need to duplicate code elsewhere.

nixos-generate-config: Remove unnecessary spaces.
The attributes swapDevices and imports add a space character after the
eqals sign, which is unnecessary. I know, I'm a pedantic douche bag but
it hurts my eyes.

nixos-generate-config: Add --no-filesystems flag.
This is to get back the old behavior of nixos-hardware-scan, which
didn't include fileSystems and swapDevices.

Eelco Dolstra ca3725bfc9 nixos-generate-config: Add --root option
If this option is given, nixos-generate-config will write the
configuration to /etc/nixos under the given root, and only emit
fileSystems attributes for filesystems under the given root directory.

The typically use case is at installation time, where you can say:

  $ nixos-generate-config --root /mnt

which will create /mnt/etc/nixos/{configuration.nix,hardware-configuration.nix}.

Also add a --force flag to force overwriting configuration.nix.

Eelco Dolstra ac13bd2575 Merge "nixos-option --install" into nixos-generate-config
Having configuration.nix generation hidden underneath nixos-option
never made sense, also given that there was another command to
generate part of the configuration (nixos-hardware-scan).  Now
nixos-generate-config produces both configuration.nix and
hardware-configuration.nix.  The latter is overwritten while the
former is not.
