As my NixOS configuration kept growing, I noticed that I don't need
home-manager as much as I did before. A lot of what I need is just a way
to map nix attrsets to the program's respective configuration format,
which is something that I can now do myself, as my nix knowledge got
more extensive. After all of this, I decided to completely get rid of
home-manager, and switch to a simpler solution called hjem, which just
lets me write files to my home directory that are automatically
symlinked using `systemd-tmpfiles`.
This allows me to simplify my configuration, remove the separation
between NixOS and home-manager modules, and cut my eval times by quite a
lot (which allows for faster `nixos-rebuild switch`!).
I have decided to refactor the entire structure of my repository, as the
old one was getting quite cluttered and I needed something that made
more sense. I've decided to go with the following, which will be
explained in the README when I find the time to do it. The gist of it
is:
- Put everything shared into its shared directory
- Rewrite the theme module (now style) to be more split, as it is
theming a lot of different apps
- Merge nixos and home-manager configurations back into a singular
config directory
Thanks a lot to llakala for the massive help she was with my Nix code.

treewide: split up options from theming module, rename to style
As an initial step towards refactoring the theming module, the options
have been split up from the configuration itself. This will allow to
find available options quicker, and separate concerns nicely. It was
also renamed to style, to avoid confusion with its own options (eg.
gtk.theme).

modules: create modules to hold global variables
I decided to import my custom lib as lib' as it makes it easier to read
and differentiate from lib. I also removed unnecessary imports from my
mkSystem function (that I actually put directly inside
hosts/default.nix, as that made more sense), since system is not needed
anymore (already set in hardware-configuration.nix), and the only
required argument is inputs, that will be then parsed automatically by
nixosSystem.
Using absolute path imports is apparently a horrible idea since that
just messes up the store, and will bring a lot of issues since that
copies it to the store separately.
