systemd-boot: Unlink loader.conf if it exists
Since systemd version 232 the install subcommand of bootctl opens the
loader.conf with fopen() modes "wxe", where the "e" stands for
exclusive, so the call will fail if the file exists.

For installing the boot loader just once this is fine, but if we're
using NIXOS_INSTALL_BOOTLOADER on a systemd where the bootloader is
already present this will fail.

Exactly this is done within the simpleUefiGummiboot installer test,
where nixos-install is called twice and thus the bootloader is also
installed twice, resulting in an error during the fopen call:

Failed to open loader.conf for writing: File exists

Removing the file prior to calling bootctl should fix this.

I've tested this using the installer.simpleUefiGummiboot test and it now
succeeds.

Build Status Code Triagers Badge

Nixpkgs is a collection of packages for the Nix package manager. It is periodically built and tested by the hydra build daemon as so-called channels. To get channel information via git, add nixpkgs-channels as a remote:

% git remote add channels git://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels.git

For stability and maximum binary package support, it is recommended to maintain custom changes on top of one of the channels, e.g. nixos-16.09 for the latest release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:

% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-16.09

For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.

NixOS linux distribution source code is located inside nixos/ folder.
