mke2fs has this annoying property that it uses getrandom() to get random
numbers (for whatever purposes) which blocks until the kernel's secure
RNG has sufficient entropy, which it usually doesn't in the early boot
(except if your CPU supports RDRAND) where we may need to create the
root disk.
So let's give the VM a virtio RNG to avoid the boot getting stuck at
mke2fs.
Ubiquiti has both a LTS and current version of their Unifi controller software.
The latter adds new features, but may drop support for some devices.
This adds the capability to use either for the unifi module but defaults
to the LTS version, which was the previous behavior.
@cleverca found this bug in the declarative hooks config. Any shell
variables referenced in a hook script would get expanded by the hooks
directory builder.
Prevent variable expansion by quoting the here doc limit string.
Following legacy packing conventions, `isArm` was defined just for
32-bit ARM instruction set. This is confusing to non packagers though,
because Aarch64 is an ARM instruction set.
The official ARM overview for ARMv8[1] is surprisingly not confusing,
given the overall state of affairs for ARM naming conventions, and
offers us a solution. It divides the nomenclature into three levels:
```
ISA: ARMv8 {-A, -R, -M}
/ \
Mode: Aarch32 Aarch64
| / \
Encoding: A64 A32 T32
```
At the top is the overall v8 instruction set archicture. Second are the
two modes, defined by bitwidth but differing in other semantics too, and
buttom are the encodings, (hopefully?) isomorphic if they encode the
same mode.
The 32 bit encodings are mostly backwards compatible with previous
non-Thumb and Thumb encodings, and if so we can pun the mode names to
instead mean "sets of compatable or isomorphic encodings", and then
voilà we have nice names for 32-bit and 64-bit arm instruction sets
which do not use the word ARM so as to not confused either laymen or
experienced ARM packages.

xdotool failed in rare cases when a window was already created
but not yet decorated by the window manager.

I know that "devinfo" output does not currently exist, but so does "devman".
It is mentioned in the nixpkgs manual, but no derivation in nixpkgs actually uses it.
HA doesn't mind the configuration being JSON instead of YAML but since YAML is
the official language, use that as it allows users to easily exchange config
data with other parties in the community.
Additionally, some settings based on NixOS configuation is set via defaultConfig
which is then merged with the user provided configration.
For now that just means http port and time zone but others can easily be added.
