Many bus clients get hopelessly confused when dbus-daemon is
restarted. So let's not do that.
Of course, this is not ideal either, because we end up stuck with a
possibly outdated dbus-daemon. But that issue will become irrelevant
in the glorious kdbus-based future.
Hopefully this also gets rid of systemd getting stuck after
dbus-daemon is restarted:
Apr 01 15:37:50 mandark systemd[1]: Failed to register match for Disconnected message: Connection timed out
Apr 01 15:37:50 mandark systemd[1]: Looping too fast. Throttling execution a little.

The nixbld group doesn't need read permission, it only needs write and
execute permission.

Since we restart all active target units (of which there are many),
it's hard to see the units that actually matter. So don't print that
we're starting target units that are already active.
‘nixos-rebuild dry-activate’ builds the new configuration and then
prints what systemd services would be stopped, restarted etc. if the
configuration were actually activated. This could be extended later to
show other activation actions (like uids being deleted).
To prevent confusion, ‘nixos-rebuild dry-run’ has been renamed to
‘nixos-rebuild dry-build’.
The PID 1 shell is executed as the last command in a sh invocation. Some
shells implicitly use exec for that, but the current busybox ash does not,
so the shell gets a wrong PID. Spell out the exec.
When gummiboot.timeout == null, the menu will still be skipped.
When gummiboot.timeout == 0, the menu will also be skipped.
The only way to show the menu 'indefinitely' is to show it a long time.
Now that dbus reload has been moved before restarting units,
the reload may fail if dbus has been stopped before.
The reload-or-restart will reload dbus if it's active,
otherwise start it.
During install, the bootloader script gets run inside a chroot after the
/etc/group bind-mount is unmounted. Since we're not doing any building,
this should be safe, but really nix should just not care if the group
does not exist when no build is needed.
