home-manager: support .config
configuration path
...
This commit changes the default path of the Home Manager configuration
file from `~/.nixpkgs/home.nix` to `~/.config/nixpkgs/home.nix`. The
old path is still supported and will be used if the `.config` path
does not exist.
This aligns Home Manager with the preferred configuration directory in
NixOS 17.03.
Fixes #13 .

home-manager: use NIX_PATH
to locate modules
...
This removes the old argument based method that Home Manager used to
find its modules by a `NIX_PATH` based method. Specifically, this adds
a `home-manager` Nix path prefix that can be overridden much like with
the `nixpkgs` path prefix.

home-manager: use strict Bash evaluation
...
In particular, this will ensure that the whole script fails with an
error code if the activation script fails during a switch. Fixes #10 .

Use stricter Bash settings in activation script
...
For example, with these settings Bash will complain if uninitialized
variables are used. Some code has been improved to run cleanly with
these settings.

Use a generation directory

Before we put only user files in the generation directory but that was
quite limiting. In particular, we lost track of the activation script.

home-manager: use absolute path to configuration
...
Nix needs an absolute path and the user may have given a relative path
for the configuration file. We therefore need to expand it using the
`realpath` tool.
