Enabling this flag for a `home.file` entry causes the target to be
unconditionally overwritten. The option is not visible in
documentation for now and shouldn't be relied on for general use.
(cherry picked from commit 37694e9f51)
The `programs.neovim.configure` option is consistent with NixOS's
`wrapNeovim` and offers features not supported by the `extraConfig`
and `plugins` option pair.

This sets the state version in recent installs to the latest released
version. It is beneficial for people to be aware of this option and it
is also good to help new users get a more recent setup.
(cherry picked from commit 54f367b119)
On NixOS it is necessary to set `bgSupport = true` when creating a
Home Manager desktop manager session. Otherwise NixOS will add code
that sets the background, overriding the effort made by the
`random-background` module.

(cherry picked from commit a12a8f7977)
The old method for hiding the error no longer works in NixOS 19.09,
and ends up breaking blueman-applet entirely. Enable the NixOS service
instead.
Pull request #950
(cherry picked from commit a5d3d6f665)
In the case where `/nix` is a link, for example, on macOS Catalina,
`builtins.storeDir` returns `/nix`, not the canonical location.
This causes tests on existing files to result in Home Manager thinking
those files are outside of the store.
This change uses `readlink` on the store path so that the tests work
as intended.

The Astroid program can work without this option,
which should be disabled when synchronising emails with muchsync for example.
This reverts commit fa3d1f98e0.
(cherry picked from commit 24dbac8da7)
This replaces some derivation outputs by simple strings rather than
full Nix store paths. This removes the need to download the whole
derivation when all we need is a static string.
(cherry picked from commit 797c77a00a)
This allows specifying, for example, the music directory using path
literals without causing the directory to be copied to the Nix store.

The [throw-keyids](https://www.gnupg.org/gph/en/manual/r2110.html)
option "hides the receiver of the encrypted data as a countermeasure
against traffic analysis." However, it also slows down decryption, and
even breaks some applications; see e.g.
https://github.com/open-keychain/open-keychain/issues/626
I think the sane default would be to leave it off, just as it is off
by default in gpg. The typical user will probably not need this level
of security, and will probably prefer a better user experience (faster
decryption and compatibility with a wider range of applications).
Closes#838
