de27156be0 nixos/cage: log to journal
Previously, cage would log to the TTY it was running on top of, so log
messages were basically lost.

1645acf1d3 nixos: reduce pam files rebuilds on updates
Before whenever environment variables changed, pam files had to be
rebuild.

This is expensive since each file needs its own sandbox set up.

cage: drop maintainership (#121174)
I cannot currently maintain this, as I don't have access to the hardware
running it anymore.

fe8d0c2e0b nixos/cage: supply pamEnvironment
Without this, you don’t get any of the sessionVariables in the cage
application. Things like XDG_DATA_DIRS, XCURSOR_PATH, etc. are
missing.

962e15aebc nixos: remove StandardOutput=syslog, StandardError=syslog lines
Since systemd 243, docs were already steering users towards using
`journal`:

eedaf7f322

systemd 246 will go one step further, it shows warnings for these units
during bootup, and will [automatically convert these occurences to
`journal`](f3dc6af20f):

> [    6.955976] systemd[1]: /nix/store/hwyfgbwg804vmr92fxc1vkmqfq2k9s17-unit-display-manager.service/display-manager.service:27: Standard output type syslog is obsolete, automatically updating to journal. Please update│······················
 your unit file, and consider removing the setting altogether.

So there's no point of keeping `syslog` here, and it's probably a better
idea to just not set it, due to:

> This setting defaults to the value set with DefaultStandardOutput= in
> systemd-system.conf(5), which defaults to journal.

e0e4d591cc nixos/cage: init
Add a cage module to nixos. This can be used to make kiosk-style
systems that boot directly to a single application. The user (demo by
default) is automatically logged in by this service and the
program (xterm by default) is automatically started.

This is useful for some embedded, single-user systems where we want
automatic booting. To keep the system secure, the user should have
limited privileges.

Based on the service provided in the Cage wiki here:
