nixos/filesystems: await builtin pstore module backend in mount-pstore

Browse Source 
If the pstore module is builtin, it nonetheless can take considerable
time to register a backend despite /sys/fs/pstore already appearing
mounted, so the condition is moved into the main script to extend
waiting for the backend to this case.

# Mount /sys/fs/pstore for evacuating panic logs and crashdumps from persistent storage onto the disk using systemd-pstore.
# This cannot be done with the other special filesystems because the pstore module (which creates the mount point) is not loaded then.
# Since the pstore filesystem is usually empty right after mounting because the backend isn't registered yet, and a path unit cannot detect files inside of it, the same service waits for that to happen. systemd's restart mechanism can't be used here because the first failure also fails all dependent units.
