nixos/xss-lock: specify a default locker
Having a default locker is less error-prone and more convenient.
Incorrect values might leave the machine vulnerable since there is no
fallback.

4db2d4d1fd nixos/xsslock: wait until pgrep xlock succeeds (#40810)
Please refer to the conversation in the original PR (#40619) for further
reference: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/40619#issuecomment-390437845

It takes some time after the standby to trigger the locker which might
break the test on Hydra.

641a623053 nixos/xss-lock: add module (#40619)
`xsslock` (which was originally packaged in 6cb1d1aaaf02a72329bedf9c6960e54fea6f5c6e)
is a simple screensaver which connects a given screen locker (e.g.
`i3lock`) with `logind`. Whenever `loginctl lock-sessions` is invoked
the locker will be used to lock the screen. This works with its power
management features (e.g. `lid switch`) as well, so the PC can be locked
automatically when the lid is closed.

The module can be used like this:

```
{
  services.xserver.enable = true;

  programs.xss-lock.enable = true;
  programs.xss-lock.lockerCommand = "i3lock";
}
```
