Currently activation is run with `sudo -i` this defaults to the user's
login shell. This can lead to problems if the user's shell isn't set
properly.
By passing `-s` rather than `-i`, `sudo` runs `activate` in `SHELL`
instead. We assume that at this point in the activation `SHELL`
contains the path to a bash in the nix store. This should always be a
valid shell to run the `activate` script with.
From the `sudo` manual it seems like this cannot be fixed if `SHELL`
isn't set at this point or by passing a command to `-s` because that
command is then passed to the user's shell.
This makes definitions like
home.activation.foo = mkIf false "bar"
work, where previously they would complain about
`home.activation.foobar.data` being used but not defined.
The crucial part is that we don't call `convertAllToDags` in
`dagOf.merge`, because we need to process `mkIf`/`mkMerge` properties
first. So we let `attrEquivalent.merge` do its job normally, but give
it a type `dagEntryOf` that does the conversion.
Ideally this shouldn't require so much boilerplate; I'd like to
implement something like
types.changeInto dagContentType elemType dagEntryAnywhere
in Nixpkgs.

Before enabling dconf in Home Manager, dconf must be enabled in system
config.
Otherwise it will fail like this:
```
$ home-manager switch
Starting Home Manager activation
Activating checkFilesChanged
Activating checkLinkTargets
Activating writeBoundary
Activating installPackages
replacing old 'home-manager-path'
installing 'home-manager-path'
Activating dconfSettings
error: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.systemd1.NoSuchUnit: Unit dconf.service not found.
```
This would give the error "attempt to call something which is not a
function but a list" given that `optionals a b` returns a list. `indent`
is the one taking this empty set as second argument.
The conversion from `concatMapStrings` to `concatStringsSep` introduced in https://github.com/nix-community/home-manager/pull/2481
creates an unintended behavior change where the formatted config does not end in a newline.[1]
This is problematic for manipulation at the Nix level. In particular, this cause a regression in
the generation of gtk2 settings due to concatenated of the formatted config and `gtk2.extraConfig`
without a newline in between.
This commit restores `concatMapStrings` to match the previous behavior and adds a newline to
the final string for the generated gtk2 config. The test case for gtk2-basic-config
was also updated to check behavior at concatenation boundaries.

If set to true, desktops configured in `monitors` will be reset every time
the config is run.
If set to false, desktops will only be configured the first time the config is run.
This is useful if you want to dynamically add desktops and you don't want them
to be destroyed if you re-run `bspwmrc`.
Nix permits user level configurations through ~/.config/nix/nix.conf that allow
customization of system-wide settings and behavior. This is beneficial in chroot
environments and for per-user configurations. System level Nix configurations in the
form of /etc/nix/nix.conf can be specified declaratively via the NixOS nix module but as
of currently no counter part exists in home-manager.
This PR is a port of the RFC42 implementation for the NixOS nix module[1]
to home-manager. Non-applicable options have been excluded and the config generation
backends have been tweaked to the backends offered by home-manager. A notable change
from the NixOS module is a mandatory option to specify the Nix binary corresponding
to the version "nix.conf" should be generated against. This is necessary because
the validation phase is dependent on the `nix show-config` subcommand on the host platform.
While it is possible to avoid validation entirely, the lack of type checking was deemed too significant.
In NixOs, the version information can be retrieved from the `package` option itself which
declares the Nix binary system-wide. However in home-manager, there is no pure way to
detect the system Nix version and what state version the "nix.conf" should be generated
against. Thus an option is used to overcome this limitation by forcing the user to
specify the Nix package. Note this interaction can still be automated by forwarding
the system-wide Nix package to the home-manager module if needed.
Three unit tests were added to test the module behavior for the empty settings, the example
settings and the example registry configurations respectively.

* gtk: add cursor theme configuration
- Added the `cursorTheme` under the gtk module.
- Added tests for the gtk3 settings file generation, and renamed
the gtk2 unit test expected file for clarity.
- Added guard against generating a blank `gtk.css` when `cfg.extraCss`
is empty.
- Replaced `concatMapStrings` calls with `concatStringsSep`. The library function
`concatMapStrings` generates an intemediate list which is then passed to
`concatStringsSep`, As we are not performing other transformation except
the addition of newlines, a direct call to `concatStringsSep` is sufficient.
- Updated description of examples to be more general "~/.config" -> "$XDG_CONFIG_HOME".
- Update helper functions `toGtk3Ini` and `formatGtk2Option` to use the library
function `boolToString` and escape the separator in the key name.
* xcursor: delegate GTK cursor settings to gtk.cursorTheme
- Added deprecation warning for GTK settings in the `xsession.cursorTheme` module.
- Modified config section to use `gtk.cursorTheme` for GTK cursor settings.
This has no effect if the user does not have any aliases defined for
any accounts.
This will also only add `--my-address=` to only accounts that are
enabled to be tracked by mu.
Note, the pubs configuration file uses ConfigObj syntax, which is
similar to the INI files syntax but with extra functionalities like
nested sections. This prevents it from using Nix's INI format
generator. Here is an example of pubs configuration that cannot be
generated using Nix's INI format generator:
[plugins]
[[git]]
manual=False
For this reason, we opted for a stringly-typed configuration since the
use of a structured `settings` option would require a custom parser.
