nix: add a declarative alternative to Nix channels (#4031)
* nix: add options 'nixPath' and 'keepOldNixPath'

By default, the system value for $NIX_PATH is kept as a fallback.
To completely override the system value for $NIX_PATH:

    nix.keepOldNixPath = false;

* nix: add more tests

* nix: add a declarative alternative to Nix channels

This adds a new option, 'nix.channels'. It's the Nix channels equivalent
of the 'nix.registry' option, and compatible with pre-Flake Nix tooling
including nix-env and nix-shell. Like 'nix.registry', this option is
useful for pinning Nix channels.

Channels defined in the new option can coexist with channels introduced
through the nix-channel command. If the same channel exists in both, the
one from Home Manager will be prioritized.

* nix: add news entry

* nix: make channels respect use-xdg-base-directories

* nix: remove 'with lib;'

A declarative alternative to Nix channels. Whereas with stock channels,
you would register URLs and fetch them into the Nix store with
{manpage}`nix-channel(1)`, this option allows you to register the store
path directly. One particularly useful example is registering flake
inputs as channels.
This option can coexist with stock Nix channels. If the same channel is
defined in both, this option takes precedence.
