Owner

As a Nix developer,
I want to know how to consume Fediversity as a NixOS configuration,
so that using it will be simple.

implementation notes

in the data model approach (#494), the basic abstraction may not directly be a nixos configuration, tho given default application configs we should be able to straight-forwardly generate these for a given run-time environment, so one should no longer need multiple nodes or external tools. as such, we should document examples for deployment methods e.g. examples/live-usb.nix.
compare: #86
also note SelfHostBlocks asking to set the host's hosts to facilitate the SSL logic these modules try to work around
