Manual: Don't depend on the absolute path of modules
...
This ensures that the manual has the same store path regardless of the
directory in which Nixpkgs is stored, and thus can be fetched from the
channel.

This means they're not for end users. Currently they're filtered from
the manual, but we could include them in a separate section.

nixos-generate-config: Add --show-hardware-config.
...
So, we get the old behaviour of nixos-hardware-scane if we run the
following command:
nixos-generate-config --no-filesystems --show-hardware-config
This allows to use scripts in order to fetch NixOS specific hardware
information, without the need to duplicate code elsewhere.

nixos-generate-config: Add --no-filesystems flag.

This is to get back the old behavior of nixos-hardware-scan, which
didn't include fileSystems and swapDevices.

Merge "nixos-option --install" into nixos-generate-config
...
Having configuration.nix generation hidden underneath nixos-option
never made sense, also given that there was another command to
generate part of the configuration (nixos-hardware-scan). Now
nixos-generate-config produces both configuration.nix and
hardware-configuration.nix. The latter is overwritten while the
former is not.
