b82c253b24 Add a kernel patch for the efi boot stub to read a config file when booted without arguments, and base removable media booting off of that patch
The patch is currently being discussed on LKML and hopefully will be included
in mainline in some form in the future. Note that booting from the livecd has
to do a lot of work before anything is output to the console, so if the drive
is still busy don't assume the boot has hanged

001fcad421 First shot at EFI booting.
Note: This feature is INCOMPLETE. Moreover, when runEfibootmgr is true it will
MODIFY NVRAM and, on Apple systems, possibly brick your firmware. PLEASE be
careful while further testing is performed

a76fe106e7 * nixos-hardware-scan: don't emit an include of an "install profile".

  alone KDE).

20b364f4de Reverting revisions 30103-30106: "always set nixpkgs.config.{state,store}Dir", etc.
After the change from revision 30103, nixos-rebuild suddenly consumed
freaky amounts of memory. I had to abort the process after it had
allocated well in excess of 30GB(!) of RAM. I'm not sure what is causing
this behavior, but undoing that assignment fixes the problem. The other
two commits needed to be revoked, too, because they depend on 30103.
