This changes the default configuration location for Home Manager
configurations from
$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/nixpkgs
to
$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/home-manager
The old location is still supported but using it will trigger a
warning message.
Fixes#3640
Install home-manager via `nix run` rather than `nix-build` then running
the activation script out of the store manually.

Remove `stateVersion`, `username`, and `homeDirectory` as they can be
set in the configuration directly. Together with the previous commit,
this makes setting `stateVersion` explicitly mandatory.
Also replace `configuration` by `modules`, which expects a list of
Home Manager modules.
Also remove `system` which was made useless by #3028.
In the manual:
* Add chapter Nix Flakes
* Add links to sections of chapter "Using Home Manager"
In README.md:
* Remove section "Nix Flakes"
* Add manual reference at the buttom of section "Installation"
