3ef8d6ad5c nixos-install: Add operation --chroot
"nixos-install --chroot" runs a command (by default a login shell) in
a chroot inside the NixOS installation in /mnt. This might useful for
poking around a new installation.

6f7aaf10a5 Containers: Use systemd-nspawn's --network-veth flag
Note that this causes the name of the host-side interface to change
from c-<name> to ve-<name>.

3fe96bcca1 Rename hardware.opengl.videoDrivers back to services.xserver.videoDrivers
Fixes #2379.
The new name was a misnomer because the values really are X11 video
drivers (e.g. ‘cirrus’ or ‘nvidia’), not OpenGL implementations. That
it's also used to set an OpenGL implementation for kmscon is just
confusing overloading.

29027fd1e1 Rewrite ‘with pkgs.lib’ -> ‘with lib’
Using pkgs.lib on the spine of module evaluation is problematic
because the pkgs argument depends on the result of module
evaluation. To prevent an infinite recursion, pkgs and some of the
modules are evaluated twice, which is inefficient. Using ‘with lib’
prevents this problem.
