"batch" is a shell script so invoking it via setuid wrapper never worked
anyway. (The kernel drops perms on executables with shebang.) A previous
nixpkgs commit made "batch" invoke the NixOS setuid "at" wrapper to gain
needed privileges.
Thanks to @yesbox for noticing.
Commit 987aac7 and issue #18183 were intended to fix support for other
things, but in the process, changed mdns_minimal to use the wrong return
setting, resulting in permanent failures in early boot, affecting things
like issue #30459.

-s, --script: never prompts for user intervention
Sometimes the NixOS installer tests fail when they invoke parted, e.g.
https://hydra.nixos.org/build/62513826/nixlog/1. But instead of exiting
right there, the tests hang until the Nix builder times out (and kills
the build). With this change the tests would instead fail immediately,
which is preferred.
While at it, use "parted --script" treewide, so nobody gets build
timeout due to parted error (or misuse). (Only nixos/ use it, and only
non-interactive.)
A few instances already use the short option "-s", convert them to long
option "--short".
When autoFormat is enabled, in order to successfully create a filesystem,
certain filesystems require specific options to be passed to mkfs to prevent
it from asking questions. This commit sets default formatOptions to "-q"
for "jfs" and "reiserfs" filesystems for this purpose.
Resolves#29140.
The submodule of the "docker-containers" option isn't recognized as a
proper submodule and thus neither properly type-checks nor are its
options included in the manual.

Regression introduced by 801c920e95.
Since then, the btrfsSimple subtest of the installer VM test fails with:
Btrfs did not return a path for the subvolume at /
The reason for this is that the output for "btrfs subvol show" has
changed between version 4.8.2 and 4.13.1.
For example the output of "btrfs subvol show /" in version 4.8.2 was:
/ is toplevel subvolume
In version 4.13.1, the output now is the following and thus the regular
expressions used in nixos-generate-config.pl and install-grub.pl now
match (which results in the error mentioned above):
/
Name: <FS_TREE>
UUID: -
Parent UUID: -
Received UUID: -
Creation time: -
Subvolume ID: 5
Generation: 287270
Gen at creation: 0
Parent ID: 0
Top level ID: 0
Flags: -
Snapshot(s):
In order to fix this I've changed nixos-generate-config.pl and
install-grub.pl, because both use "btrfs subvol show" in a similar vein,
so the regex for parsing the output now doesn't match anymore whenever
the volume path is "/", which should result in the same behaviour as we
had with btrfs-progs version 4.8.2.
Tested against the btrfsSimple, btrfsSubvols and btrfsSubvolDefault
subtests of the installer VM test and they all succeed now.

The output of ./configure shows all modules/plugins, both enabled and
disabled. With this info we can finally build the _complete_ list of
modules. We were missing these:
mod_authn_gssapi
mod_authn_ldap
mod_geoip
(I hit this as I was building lighttpd with ldap support and the NixOS
module said ldap was unsupported, due to these missing entries in
allKnownModules.)
powertop attempt to load some kernel modules like msr by calling
modprobe. This is the counterpart to
88e43eb39b which has the powertop
executable search PATH for modprobe rather than hardcoding /sbin, and
actually adds the directory containing modprobe to its PATH for the
systemd service.
* Safer defaults for immutable znc config
I just lost all the options I configured in ZNC, because the mutable config was overwritten.
I accept any suggestions on the way to implement this, but overwriting a mutable config by default seems weird. If we want to do this, we should ensure that ZNC does not allow to edit the config via the webmin when cfg.mutable is false.
* Do not backup old config files.
There seems to be little need for backups if mutable becomes a voluntary opt-out.
* fixup
* the keyboard modules in all-hardware.nix are already defaults of
boot.initrd.availableKernelModules
* ide modules, hid_lenovo_tpkbd and scsi_wait_scan have been removed
because they're not available anymore
* i8042 was a duplicate (see few lines abowe)
All available options were just enabling
hardware.enableRedistributableFirmware. There were nix files without
modules which weren't referenced anywhere.
