f61e737b54 improve doc for outputs and hardware
Changed my mind about "installer" as a first-class concept, at least
in the current implementation. Not every documented output is an
installer

5GHz as "wlan5"

f75995e895 introduce modules/arch/{mipsel,mipseb}.nix

31f0213b6f convert network link/address to module-based-service
... and make bridge use it.

We also had to convert bridge back into a pair of services.
Downstreams want to depend on the bridge it self being configured
even if not necessarily all the members are up. e.g. don't want
to break ssh on lan if there's a misconfigured wlan device

2e50368bd2 rename config.outputs to config.system.outputs
New rules: everything under "config" that isn't actually configuration
(e.g. build products) will in future live in config.system. This is
the first step.

4cfaed7303 specify root device as /dev/mtdblockn

e0ea576674 rename "device" config tree as "hardware"
we are also using "device" for "network device" (as in eth0,
wlan0 etc) so this makes it a bit less confusing perhaps

81ccd11347 gl-ar750: support _actual_ mtd/spi not just fake one
the ath9k driver needs MTD because that's where it looks for
firmware/calibration data (ART partition)

817c3793d4 move dts config from kernel to boot
The kernel does not need to know about the DTS. I am prepared
to be very slightly injured on this hill.

8cead61740 convert devices from overlay to module
this makes it possible for devices to stash things in
`config` (e.g. pathname to DTS) that can later be overwritten
(even by the end user)

f1b7780537 speed up kernel build
by having two separate derivations for patching the kernel source tree
and building it, we have to copy said source trees from one store
location to another which takes non-neglible time on spinning rust
(literally minutes on my machine). Replace with a single derivation
that can do more things on one tree in-place
