home-manager: ignore hostname -f lookup errors

`hostname -f` could fail depending on the resolver. Discard any stderr
and test for the exit status before using the value for flake attribute
lookup.

I was unable to repro the exact bad exit status in #5665.
With
  - nscd disabled,
  - nsswitch.conf pointing to 'files',
  - hostname entry removed from /etc/hosts
`hostname -f` from inetutils-2.5 fell back to showing just the nodename
from `uname(2)`. Injecting an empty string into the
`(struct utsname).nodename` field of `uname(2)` using strace still
exited with empty output and 0 exit-status.

Fixes #5665
