https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/347283 changed the default to
exclude non-physical network Kind, but that unfortunately also includes
`veth` which LXC uses for its network interfaces. Re-enable that
functionality so users can use networkd with useDHCP.
Xen is a trademark of the Cloud Software Group; we're not packaging
Xen(Server), we're packaging the Xen Project Hypervisor, which is open
source and owned by the Linux Foundation.
This is based on advice from Kelly Choi, the Xen Project Community
Manager, who has assisted us in the branding aspects of pacakaging.

When `diskImage = null`, the root fs is a tmpfs instead of
`/dev/vda`. Thus, it doesn't have to wait for virtio modules to load
before being mounted. The root fs is a dependency of shared
directories by nature of being their parent directory. Without
depending on `/dev/vda`, these shared directories may attempt to mount
without virtio modules being loaded.
In preparation for the deprecation of `stdenv.isX`.
These shorthands are not conducive to cross-compilation because they
hide the platforms.
Darwin might get cross-compilation for which the continued usage of `stdenv.isDarwin` will get in the way
One example of why this is bad and especially affects compiler packages

There are too many files to go through manually but a treewide should
get users thinking when they see a `hostPlatform.isX` in a place where it
doesn't make sense.

It thinks we want to expand the `*` regex expressions inside the `sed`
commands. We do not.

- Cleans up downstream systemd units in favour of using upstream units.
- Xen 4.18 on Nixpkgs now supports EFI booting, so we have an EFI boot
builder here that runs after systemd-boot-builder.py.
- Add more options for setting up dom0 resource limits.
- Adds options for the declarative configuration of oxenstored.
- Disables the automatic bridge configuration, as it was broken.
- Drops legacy BIOS boot
- Adds an EFI boot entry builder script.

It is surprising that software which was installed by the user at AMI
generation time isn't available to a script run over user data by
default.
When authoring user data to execute at startup, users will now have
more predictable access to baked-in software instead of an extremely
bare-minimum set currently there.
