      Secrets are now handled by the `networking.wireless.secretsFile` and
      `networking.wireless.networks.<name>.pskRaw` options.
      The change is motivated by a mechanism recently added by wpa_supplicant
      itself to separate secrets from configuration, making the previous
      method obsolete.

      The syntax of the `secretsFile` is the same as before, except the
      values are interpreted literally, unlike environment variables.
      To update, remove quotes or character escapes, if necessary, and
      apply the following changes to your configuration:
        {
          home.psk = "@psk_home@";          →  home.pskRaw = "ext:psk_home";
          other.pskRaw = "@psk_other@";     →  other.pskRaw = "ext:psk_other";
