2e751c0772 treewide: automatically md-convert option descriptions
the conversion procedure is simple:

 - find all things that look like options, ie calls to either `mkOption`
   or `lib.mkOption` that take an attrset. remember the attrset as the
   option
 - for all options, find a `description` attribute who's value is not a
   call to `mdDoc` or `lib.mdDoc`
 - textually convert the entire value of the attribute to MD with a few
   simple regexes (the set from mdize-module.sh)
 - if the change produced a change in the manual output, discard
 - if the change kept the manual unchanged, add some text to the
   description to make sure we've actually found an option. if the
   manual changes this time, keep the converted description

this procedure converts 80% of nixos options to markdown. around 2000
options remain to be inspected, but most of those fail the "does not
change the manual output check": currently the MD conversion process
does not faithfully convert docbook tags like <code> and <package>, so
any option using such tags will not be converted at all.

nixos/qemu-guest-agent: use qemu_kvm
Since e791519f0f ("nixos/qemu-vm: use qemu_kvm"), VMs generated with
nixos-rebuild build-vm use the qemu_kvm package instead of the qemu
package.  (The difference between them is that qemu_kvm is only built
with support for the host architecture, not all architectures.)

But with this change, nixos-rebuild build-vm would now depend on
_both_ QEMUs, because the guest agent module was still using the one
from the full QEMU package.  There's no need for it to use this
instead of the lighter qemu_kvm, because the guest agent shouldn't be
affected by which platforms QEMU can emulate.

ca0604190e qemu-guest-agent: init module
Allow out of band communication between qemu VMs and the host.
Useful to retrieve IPs of VMs from the host (for instance when libvirt can't analyze
DHCP requests because VMs are configured with static addresses or when
there is connectivity default).
