Get rid of the last uses of mkAlways
...
mkAlways is an insane function, mkMerge is much saner.

* nixos-checkout: add an argument to specify the directory where the
...
sources should be stored. E.g. "nixos-checkout /home/eelco/srcs"
will check out to /home/eelco/srcs/{nixos,nixpkgs}. Probably the
/etc/nixos default should be removed eventually because /etc is a
pretty weird place to keep large source trees.

Update the documentation:
...
* Change the module syntax of the example to follow Eelco's suggestions.
* Add a section "Building your own NixOS CD", which explain how to replace
configuration.nix by the configuration file of a live CD/DVD.
* Fix "Testing the installer" and "Testing the initrd" to fit the location
of derivations.

- Move some system configuration to options:
...
* system.nssModules
* system.modulesTree
* system.sbin.modprobe
* system.sbin.mount
* nix.envVars
- Remove Arguments that can be accessed either by "config" or "pkgs".
- Use the new scheme for upstart-jobs/default.nix.
This is now a configuration file which is imported by system/options.nix.
- Jobs can now include upstart-job/default.nix:
* upstrat-jobs/cron.nix
* upstart-jobs/dhclient.nix
=> No Nixos file refers to upstart-jobs/default.nix except if one of its options is require to define an extra job. (e.g.: cron, dhclient)
