Set `networking.networkmanager.wifi.macAddress` or `networking.networkmanager.ethernet.macAddress`
to one of these values to change your macAddress.
* "XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX": set the MAC address of the interface.
* "permanent": use the permanent MAC address of the device.
* "preserve": don’t change the MAC address of the device upon activation.
* "random": generate a randomized value upon each connect.
* "stable": generate a stable, hashed MAC address.

See #18319 for details. Starting network-online.target manually does not
work as it hangs indefinitely.
Additionally, don't treat avahi and dhcpcd special and sync their systemd units
with the respective upstream suggestion.
Systemd upstream provides targets for networking. This also includes a target network-online.target.
In this PR I remove / replace most occurrences since some of them were even wrong and could delay startup.
This reverts commit c25907d072742e9720b713d7116793e0d8a623c5.
I think this commit broke the NixOS service for NetworkManager. At least
with this, and the two previous reverts, everything is back to normal.
(With multiple-outputs split, it would have reduced the closure size by
3 MiB.)
This reverts commit 7ac1ef05fa162d8e3c35925034df72288df77c8b.
One of a few reverts needed to unbreak networkmanager NixOS service
since the multiple-output split (to save 3 MiB of closure size).
This reverts commit 2875293615adabba44dac3a222e3d483c3f9e6f7.
One of a few reverts needed to unbreak networkmanager NixOS service
since the multiple-output split (to save 3 MiB of closure size).
NetworkManager needs an additional avahi-user to use link-local
IPv4 (and probably IPv6) addresses. avahi-autoipd also needs to be
patched to the right path.
- add missing types in module definitions
- add missing 'defaultText' in module definitions
- wrap example with 'literalExample' where necessary in module definitions

Conflicts:
pkgs/development/libraries/ncurses/default.nix
Fixes#7593 (NM can't find the dnsmasq binary); the NM expression is missing
dnsmasq in its buildInputs, so configure can't find it.
Also creates /var/lib/misc which dnsmasq expects to exist, because it puts
dnsmasq.leases there.
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.
There are two fixes in this commit.
Firstly, I am creating proper symlinks for the Alias= definitions in the
.service files. This achieves the same result as `systemctl enable`, and
I think is preferred over `mv`.
Secondly, `networkmanager-init` now wants `NetworkManager.service`,
along with `ModemManager.service`. ModemManager does not depend on
NetworkManager (according to `systemctl list-dependencies ModemManager`),
thus NetworkManager never got started on boot.
- It now uses JavaScript for configuration (only),
so I had to "convert" config for NetworkManager.
- I tested suspend/restart/(un)mount on KDE/Xfce,
Phreedom tested NetworkManager config conversion.
