73f32d0375 Show precise error messages in option merge failures
For instance, if time.timeZone is defined multiple times, you now get
the error message:

  error: user-thrown exception: The unique option `time.timeZone' is defined multiple times, in `/etc/nixos/configurations/misc/eelco/x11vnc.nix' and `/etc/nixos/configuration.nix'.

while previously you got:

  error: user-thrown exception: Multiple definitions of string. Only one is allowed for this option.

and only an inspection of the stack trace gave a clue as to what
option caused the problem.

d5047faede Remove uses of the "merge" option attribute
It's redundant because you can (and should) specify an option type, or
an apply function.

29014a47fb Allow options to be marked as "internal"
This means they're not for end users.  Currently they're filtered from
the manual, but we could include them in a separate section.

84d4358635 Fix compatibility with Nix < 1.6
Nix 1.6 (accidentally) changed the semantics of strings like
"${path}/bla", so this happened to work on 1.6 but not before.

ceb8ab7ffa Really fix use of NixOps with the merged Nixpkgs/NixOS tree
Note that there is a subtle difference in Nix that causes
nixos-rebuild to work and NixOps to fail:

  $ nix-instantiate '<nixos>' -A config.system.nixosVersion --eval-only
  "13.10pre34915.50f4822"

  $ nix-instantiate '<nixos/default.nix>' -A config.system.nixosVersion --eval-only
  error: opening file `/nix/var/nix/profiles/per-user/root/channels/nixos/.version': No such file or directory

Fixes NixOS/nixops#145.
