* Move kernel patches out of all-packages.nix to
os-specific/linux/kernel/patches.nix.
* Make the kernel config available under $out/config (it's also in
$out/lib/modules/$version/build/.config, but that's kind of hard to
find).

`generate-config.pl' runs `make config' to generate a Linux kernel
configuration file. For each question (i.e. kernel configuration
option), unless an override is provided, it answers "m" if possible,
and otherwise uses the default answer (as determined by the default
config for the architecture). This is safer than allmodconfig,
which answers "y" everywhere it can't answer "m" and thus ends up
enabling a lot of experimental or debug options. (For this reason,
a configuration generated by allmodconfig must be carefully checked
with every new release to ensure that nothing dangerous is enabled.
The default config should be safer wrt new kernel releases.)
Overrides are specified in the `config' argument to generic.nix,
which is a string that contains lines such as `EXT2_FS_POSIX_ACL y'.
The script warns about ignored options, and aborts if `make config'
selects an answer inconsistent with the one in `config'. This
allows us to be sure that `make config' doesn't silently override
our configuration values (e.g., depending on other options, it will
set FB_TILEBLITTING to "y" even if we want it to be "n").

* Build the PC speaker as a module. This allows people who are
annoyed by beeps (e.g. users of Dell Latitude D6xx laptops) to get
rid of them :-)

builders. These are redundant now.
* Inlined some trivial builders.
* Removed a few explicit setup-hook creations. This is done
automatically now if setupHook is set.
* Deleted the initscripts package. NixOS doesn't use it anymore.

Linux kernel 2.6.29 (release) has a slightly changed Makefile. They now add the prefix for depmod. So in NixOS "make modules_install" fails on depmod. To fix it, our old '/-b \$(INSTALL_MOD_PATH) -r/d' should be replaced with '/-b \$(INSTALL_MOD_PATH)/d'.
