Jörg Thalheim c9c8a2c5b3 nixos/memcached: make unix sockets usuable
before:
  - /var/run/memcached is a bad default for a socket path, since its
    parent directory must be writeable by memcached.
  - Socket directory was not created by the module itself -> this was
    left as a burden to the user?
  - Having a static uid with a dynamic user name is not very useful.

after:
  - Replace services.memcached.socket by a boolean flag. This simplifies
    our code, since we do not have to check if the user specifies a
    path with a parent directory that should be owned by memcached
    (/run/memcached/memcached.sock -> /run/memcached).
  - Remove fixed uid/gid allocation. The only file ever owned by the
    daemon is the socket that will be recreated on every start.
    Therefore user and group ids do not need to be static.
  - only create the memcached user, if the user has not specified a
    different one. The major use case for changing option is to allow
    existing services (such as php-fpm) opening the local unix socket.
    If we would unconditionally create a user that option would be
    useless.

Jan Malakhovski 67ec6371d5 nixos, lib: implement relatedPackages option
This allows one to specify "related packages" in NixOS that get rendered into
the configuration.nix(5) man page. The interface philosophy is pretty much
stolen from TeX bibliography.

Jan Malakhovski 182463dc79 nixos/doc: push all the enable*' and package*` options to the top of their option group
Why? Because this way configuration.nix(5) can be read linearly.

Before:

> virtualisation.xen.bootParams
> ...
> virtualisation.xen.enable
> ...
> virtualisation.xen.package
> ...

After:

> virtualisation.xen.enable

Profpatsch f09f49d483 nixos/doc/manual: print context on failing xmllint validation

nixos/ssh: Update 18.03 release notes
Since ssh-dss is no longer supported by default, users relying on those
keys for their login may be locked out. They should ideally use stronger
keys, but adding the support for ssh-dss back in can also be done
through extraConfig.

Herwig Hochleitner e64dc25434 Revert "services.xserver: assert that either desktop- or window manager is not "none""
This reverts commit 93c54acf97.
This reopens #30517 @nbp @Ma27

Breaking people's config for this is hardly reasonable as is. If it
absolutely cannot be avoided, at the very least, we need to provide
clear instructions on what people need to upgrade in their config. I
actually had to bisect to the commit, to even find out what property I
should change or define, as the error message was useless. It didn't
even mention a property name.

Discussion on the PR seems to be ongoing, so I'm reverting this, so we
don't break people's systems on unstable.

postage is no longer maintained and has been replaced by the identical pgmanage. See:

https://github.com/workflowproducts/postage#postage-has-been-replaced-with-pgmanage

The following error is raised when a user enables the deprecated `services.postage.enable` option:

Failed assertions:
- services.postage is deprecated in favor of pgmanage. They have the same options so just substitute postage for pgmanage.

Dave Laing 0cf74190a9 nixos manual: Adds some examples of how to use fdisk.
Also unifies the BIOS and UEFI installation instructions.

It's a fairly basic usage, but it makes explicity the fact that
you should at least have a main partition and a swap partition,
and will save some users a bit of internet searching while they
are getting set up.
