Ivan Trubach c68a5bb85a nixos/iso-image: enable BIOS boot by default if possible
The change introduced in commit e5b072eca1
breaks backwards compatibility for some users, see
e5b072eca1 (commitcomment-113775008)
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/219351#discussion_r1139773448

This change updates the implementation to enable BIOS boot if possible
for the build and host platforms, and also assert that BIOS boot is not
enabled for non-x86 host platforms.
