This introduces VirtualBox version 5.1.6 along with a few refactored
stuff, notably:
* Kernel modules and user space applications are now separate
derivations.
* If config.pulseaudio doesn't exist in nixpkgs config, the default is
now to build with PulseAudio modules.
* A new updater to keep VirtualBox up to date.
All subtests in nixos/tests/virtualbox.nix succeed on my machine and
VirtualBox was reported to be working by @DamienCassou (although with
unrelated audio problems for another fix/branch) and @calbrecht.
One reason why it took me so long for debugging the test failure with
systemd-detect-virt was that simple-cli has succeeded while the former
has not.
This now makes sure we have consistency accross all the subtests and if
problems like the one in the previos commit ever show up again, we will
have just the headless test succeeding and it's more obvious where the
actual problem resides.

We don't have (simulated) sound hardware within the qemu VM, neither do
we have it available within VirtualBox that's running within the qemu
VMs.
With sound hardware the VirtualBox UI displays an error dialog, which in
turn causes the VM process to hang on unregister. This in turn has
caused the tests to fail because of the following error:
Cannot unregister the machine '...' while it is locked

If people want to disable support for PulseAudio they can still
explicitly use pulseaudio = false in their nixpkgs config.
But even with enabled PulseAudio support, it's still optional, enabled
at runtime and can be turned off in VirtualBox settings as well.

Issue: #15005
Using waitUntilSucceeds for testing whether the shutdown signalling
files have vanished is quite noisy because it prints two lines for every
try. This is now fixed with a while loop on the guest VM which does the
same check but with only one output for the command that's executed and
another one when the conditions are met.
