This commit deprecates profile management from the activation script.
The profile management is instead the responsibility of the driving
software, for example, the `home-manager` tool in the case of
standalone installs.
The legacy behavior is still available for backwards compatibility but
may be removed in the future.
The new behavior resolves (or moves us closer to resolving) a number
of long standing open issues:
- `home-manager switch --rollback`, which performs a rollback to the
previous Home Manager generation before activating. While it was
previously possible to accomplish this by activating an old
generation, it did always create a new profile generation.
This option has been implemented as part of this commit.
- `home-manager switch --test`, which activates the configuration but
does not create a new profile generation.
This option has _not_ been implemented here since it relies on the
current configuration being activated on login, which we do not
currently do.
- When using the "Home Manager as a NixOS module" installation method
we previously created an odd `home-manager` per-user "shadow
profile" for the user. This is no longer necessary.
This has been implemented as part of this commit.
Fixes#3450
When the user changes which addresses mu should consider 'personal',
mu's store should be reinitialized.
After this change, the activation script parses the previously
configured list of addresses and compares it with the new one. If they
differ, it runs the init command even when the store has already been
initialized.

The home manager script fails when $USER contains special characters.
For example, my work PC is managed by company's LDAP and username is <COMPANY>\<user>). When running home-manager switch I get the following error:
```
error: flake 'path:/home/<COMPANY>/<user>/.config/home-manager' does not provide attribute 'packages.x86_64-linux.homeConfigurations."<COMPANY>\<user>".activationPackage', 'legacyPackages.x86_64-linux.homeConfigurations."<COMPANY>\<user>".activationPackage' or 'homeConfigurations."<COMPANY>\<user>".activationPackage'
Did you mean <COMPANY><user>?
```
There are two types of strings that need escaping:
strings in Nix expressions (e.g. home.nix generated by home-manager init)
they need backslashes before special chars
flake URI (passed to nix build)
they need URI's percent encoding, luckily jq supports that
Previously, only the main identity of an account would get the proper SMTP
server assigned. Identities corresponding to aliases would not get an SMTP
server assigned at all, leading to a (Thunderbird-internal) fallback to the
SMTP server associated to the primary account. This is obviously wrong for
non-primary accounts having aliases associated to them. Fix it by specifying
the SMTP server explicitly for all identities.

Some fish plugins such as https://github.com/acomagu/fish-async-prompt
require that starship be initialized as non-interactive.
When the `programs.starship.enableInteractive` option is enabled,
starship is initialized at the end of the init script, outside the
interactive block.
Now accepts an empty list, which turns off the code so the user can
manually set ZSH_AUTOSUGGEST_STRATEGY anywhere they want via any of the
`*Variables` module options.
The initExtra code is executed after systemd graphical-session.target
starts, which means graphical applications started by
graphical-session.target cannot get these X settings.
