The new option `services.prometheus.enableReload` has been introduced
which, when enabled, causes the prometheus systemd service to reload
when its config file changes.
More specifically the following property holds: switching to a
configuration (`switch-to-configuration`) that changes the prometheus
configuration only finishes successully when prometheus has finished
loading the new configuration.
`enableReload` is `false` by default in which case the old semantics
of restarting the prometheus systemd service are in effect.
Some upstream changes broke the automatic fallback to SwiftShader.
Without this workaround the GPU initialization fails (apparently due to requiring Vulkan):

The workaround is only required for Chromium, not Google Chrome.
Some specialisations (such as those which affect various boot-time
attributes) cannot be switched to at runtime. This allows picking the
specialisation at boot time.
