This change replaces the previously hard-coded `/boot` path with a
reference to `efiSysMountPoint` and more importantly this change makes
it possible to override these rules in scenarios in which they are not
desired.
One such scenario would be when `systemd-gpt-auto-generator(8)` is used
to automount the ESP. Consider this section from the mentioned manpage:
> The ESP is mounted to /boot/ if that directory exists and is not used
> for XBOOTLDR, and otherwise to /efi/. Same as for /boot/, an automount
> unit is used. The mount point will be created if necessary.
Prior to this change, the ESP would be automounted under `/efi` on first
boot, then the previous tmpfiles rules caused `/boot` to be created.
Following the quote above, this meant that the ESP is mounted under
`/boot` for each subsequent boot.
Add an option allowing packages containing out-of-tree vhost-user drivers for
QEMU to be specified. The relevant configurations are then linked at runtime
where libvirt expects them.
An example use case for this is virtiofs.

* ASHMEM was removed in Linux 5.18 and waydroid can use MEMFD instead.
MEMFD is enabled by default in 4.18 and later kernels while we
already require this version for namespace support.
waagent's extension `Microsoft.OSTCExtensions.VMAccessForLinux` requires Python, otherwise it would be failed to install with the following error message in `/var/log/waagent.log`:
```
No Python interpreter found on the box
```
waagent's extension `Microsoft.CPlat.Core.RunCommandLinux` needs lsof, otherwise it would produce the following error message in `/var/log/waagent.log`:
```
/var/lib/waagent/Microsoft.Azure.Extensions.CustomScript-2.1.10/bin/custom-script-shim: line 60: lsof: command not found

The virtualisation.directBoot.initrd option was added for netboot
images, but the assertion to check directBoot enabled if it was used
caused an infinite recursion if it was. Minimal reproduction:
import nixos/tests/make-test-python.nix ({ pkgs, ... }: {
name = "";
nodes = {
machine = { config, ...}: {
imports = [ nixos/modules/installer/netboot/netboot-minimal.nix ];
virtualisation.directBoot = {
enable = true;
initrd = "${config.system.build.netbootRamdisk}/${config.system.boot.loader.initrdFile}";
};
};
};
testScript = "";
}) {}
The fix is to swap the two conditions, so that cfg.directBoot.enable
is checked first, and the initrd comparision will be short circuited.
This wasn't noticed during review because in earlier versions of the
virtualisation.directBoot patch, the assertion was accidentally in the
conditional above, so wasn't evaluated unless port forwarding was in
use.
