William Carroll 51ec9e0d88 Move /home/wpcarro/nixpkgs-channels to /var/lib
My builds are still failing. This time with...
```
error: getting status of /home/wpcarro/nixpkgs-channels: Permission denied
```
...what confused me was the following:

```shell
$ sudo -u buildkite-agent-socrates stat /home/wpcarro/nixpkgs-channels
permission denied
```

But `ls -al /home/wpcarro | grep nixpkgs-channels` showed `r-w` for all users...

Thankfully @riking on ##tvl told me that I should check the permissions for
/home/wpcarro and /home...

After running `ls -al /home`, I saw `---` for all user... I then reproduced the
error by running:

```shell
$ sudo -u buildkite-agent-socrates stat /home
permission denied
```

Great!

So then I moved nixpkgs-channels to /var/lib/buildkite-agent-socrates. @edef
recommended that I read more about DynamicUser= setting for systemd, which looks
relevant after I took a cursory glance.

I'll also want a more declarative way to manager this, but I'm making small
improvements every day.
