By being in sync with the pname, it makes it easier to walk back from
the pname that shows in the /nix/store back to the attribute.
This change should not cause any rebuild.
Since DEs like KDE Plasma 6, GNOME and COSMIC are not designed to be X11-exclusive, putting them under `services.xserver` is misleading. In particular, GNOME defaults to Wayland these days and X11 support is going to be dropped in near future.
Let’s follow Plasma and move GNOME NixOS options out of `xserver` attribute.
This patch does not include any changes to X11 support itself.

After final improvements to the official formatter implementation,
this commit now performs the first treewide reformat of Nix files using it.
This is part of the implementation of RFC 166.
Only "inactive" files are reformatted, meaning only files that
aren't being touched by any PR with activity in the past 2 months.
This is to avoid conflicts for PRs that might soon be merged.
Later we can do a full treewide reformat to get the rest,
which should not cause as many conflicts.
A CI check has already been running for some time to ensure that new and
already-formatted files are formatted, so the files being reformatted here
should also stay formatted.

Fixes#2379.
The new name was a misnomer because the values really are X11 video
drivers (e.g. ‘cirrus’ or ‘nvidia’), not OpenGL implementations. That
it's also used to set an OpenGL implementation for kmscon is just
confusing overloading.
Using pkgs.lib on the spine of module evaluation is problematic
because the pkgs argument depends on the result of module
evaluation. To prevent an infinite recursion, pkgs and some of the
modules are evaluated twice, which is inefficient. Using ‘with lib’
prevents this problem.
If you want x11vnc to receive TCP connections from the rest of the world,
please add
networking.firewall.allowedTCPPorts = [ 5900 ];
to /etc/nixos/configuration.nix.
See <http://lists.science.uu.nl/pipermail/nix-dev/2013-November/011997.html>
for the discussion that lead to this.
