The BGRT theme is probably a close as to "FlickerFree" we can
get without https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/74842.
It's more agnostic than the Breeze theme.
We also install all of themes provided by the packages, as it's possible
that one theme needs the ImageDir of another, and they're small files
anyways.
Lastly, how plymouth handles logo and header files is
a total mess, so hopefully when they have an actual release
we won't need to do all this symlinking.
This allows Plymouth to show the “NixOS 21.03” label under the logo at
startup like it already does at shutdown.
Fixes#59992.

For in NixOS it is beneficial if both plasma5 and pam use the same Qt5
version. Because the plasma5 desktop may use a different version as the
default Qt5 version, we introduce plasma5Packages.
GDM now specifies ordering between `plymouth-quit` and `display-manager`:
9be5321097
This causes an ordering cycle between GDM and plymouth-quit which can result in
systemd breaking GDM:
```
plymouth-quit.service: Job display-manager.service/start deleted to break
ordering cycle starting with plymouth-quit.service/start
```
Not sure how often this triggers, as I've run my system with plymouth and
9be5321097 without any issues. But I did catch a VM doing this.
NOTE: I also tried to remove the ordering in GDM to see if plymouth managed to
live longer, but it didn't seem to help. So I opted to stick as close to
upstream (upstream GDM specifies ordering, but plymouth does not).
This is apparent from the service file directory in plymouth:
├── multi-user.target.wants
│ ├── plymouth-quit.service -> ../plymouth-quit.service
│ └── plymouth-quit-wait.service -> ../plymouth-quit-wait.service
Leaving it unspecified caused gdm-wayland to crash on boot, see #39615.
The change made other display managers not quit plymouth properly however. By
removing "multi-user.target" from `plymouth-quit.after` this is resolved.
