This adds several improvements the previously introduced
`services.weechat` module:
* Dropped `services.weechat.init` as the initialization script can now
be done on package-level since 2af41719bc using the `configure`
function.
* Added `sessionName` option to explicitly configure a name for the
`screen` session (by default: weechat-screen).
* Added `binary` option to configure the binary name (e.g.
`weechat-headless`).
* Added docs regarding `screen` session and `weechat.service`.
Previously it was only possible to use very simple Riemann config.
For more complicated scenarios you need a directory of clojure
files and the config file that riemann starts with should be in this
directory.
This fixes an issue with shells like fish that are not fully POSIX
compliant. The syntax `ENV=val cmd' doesn't work properly in there.
This issue has been addressed in #45932 and #45945, however it has been
recommended to use a single shell (`stdenv.shell' which is either
`bash' or `sh') to significantly reduce the maintenance overload in the
future.

Some programs like eog seem to need dconf accessible on dbus.
Without this change I get
(eog:1738): dconf-WARNING **: 21:20:52.770: failed to commit changes to
dconf: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name
ca.desrt.dconf was not provided by any .service files
Although double '/' in paths is not a problem for GRUB supplied with nixpkgs, sometimes NixOS's grub.conf read by external GRUB and there are versions of GRUB which fail
The switch from slim to lightdm in #30890 broke some nixos tests
because lightdm by default doesn't permit auto-login for root.
Override /etc/pam.d/lightdm-autologin to allow it.
The option was added in 1251b34b5b
with type `types.path` but default `null`, so eval failed with
the default setting. This broke the acme and certmgr tests.

This is the semantics as understood by `xdg-open`. Using these semantics
on a non-colon-separated variable works because it acts as if it was a
one element long list.
This fixes an issue where it would try to exec
`google-chrome-beta:google-chrome:chromium:firefox` on a system
configured with these semantics in mind.
The instructions to install nixos behind a proxy were not clear. While
one could guess that setting http_proxy variables can get the install
rolling, one could end up with an installed system where the proxy
settings for the nix-daemon are not configured.
This commit updates the documentation with
1. steps to install behind a proxy
2. configure the global proxy settings so that nix-daemon can access
internet.
3. Pointers to use nesting.clone in case one has to use different proxy
settings on different networks.
