Andrew Childs ce416779bb nixos/activation: use eval-config's system argument for nesting
This avoids a possible surprise if the user is using `nixpkgs.system`
and `nesting.children`. `nesting.children` is expected to ignore all
parent configuration so we shouldn't propagate the user-facing option
`nixpkgs.system`. To avoid doing so, we introduce a new internal
option for holding the value passed to eval-config.nix, and use that
when recursing for nesting.

# From an end-user configuration file (`configuration.nix'), build a NixOS
# configuration object (`config') from which we can retrieve option
# values.
# !!! Please think twice before adding to this argument list!
# Ideally eval-config.nix would be an extremely thin wrapper
# around lib.evalModules, so that modular systems that have nixos configs
# as subcomponents (e.g. the container feature, or nixops if network
# expressions are ever made modular at the top level) can just use
# types.submodule instead of using eval-config.nix
{ # !!! system can be set modularly, would be nice to remove
system ? builtins.currentSystem
, # !!! is this argument needed any more? The pkgs argument can
# be set modularly anyway.
