When `services.resolved` is enabled, then `resolve [!UNAVAIL=return]`
is added to `system.nssDatabases.hosts` with priority 501,
which prevents lower-priority NSS modules from running
unless systemd-resolved is not available.
Quoting from `man nss-resolve`:
> To activate the NSS module, add "resolve [!UNAVAIL=return]" to the line

Note that the man page (just) recommends "early" and means with this
"before the 'files' and 'dns' entries". It does not insist on being
first or excluding other modules.
For this reason, libvirt NSS modules should run before the `resolve`
module. They should come right next to `mymachines` because both are
conceptually very similar -- they resolve local VMs/containers.
Since the data source of the libvirt NSS modules are local
plain text files (see source code of the libvirt NSS module),
no performance impact is expected form this raise of priorities.
Other NSS modules in NixOS also explicitly set their priority, which is
why this change increases consistency.
