nixos module: support NixOS user packages install
When using the NixOS module we cannot guarantee that the Nix store
will be writable during startup. Installing the user packages through
`nix-env -i` will fail in these cases.

This commit adds a NixOS option `home-manager.useUserPackages` that,
when enabled, installs user packages through the NixOS

    users.users.<name?>.packages

option.

Note, when submodule support and external package install is enabled
then the installed packages are not available in `~/.nix-profile`. We
therefore set `home.profileDirectory` directly to the HM profile
packages.

Environment variables to always set at login.
</para><para>
The values may refer to other environment variables using
POSIX.2 style variable references. For example, a variable
<varname>parameter</varname> may be referenced as
<code>$parameter</code> or <code>''${parameter}</code>. A
default value <literal>foo</literal> may be given as per
<code>''${parameter:-foo}</code> and, similarly, an alternate
value <literal>bar</literal> can be given as per
<code>''${parameter:+bar}</code>.
</para><para>
Note, these variables may be set in any order so no session
variable may have a runtime dependency on another session
variable. In particular code like
<programlisting>
home.sessionVariables = {
FOO = "Hello";
BAR = "$FOO World!";
};
</programlisting>
may not work as expected. If you need to reference another
session variable, then do so inside Nix instead. The above
example then becomes
<programlisting>
home.sessionVariables = {
FOO = "Hello";
BAR = "''${config.home.sessionVariables.FOO} World!";
};
</programlisting>
