nixos: introduce system.nixosLabel option and use it where appropriate
Setting nixosVersion to something custom is useful for meaningful GRUB menus and /nix/store paths, but actuallly changing it rebulids the whole system path (because of `nixos-version` script and manual pages). Also, changing it is not a particularly good idea because you can then be differentitated from other NixOS users by a lot of programs that read /etc/os-release. This patch introduces an alternative option that does all you want from nixosVersion, but rebuilds only the very top system level and /etc while using your label in the names of system /nix/store paths, GRUB and other boot loaders' menus, getty greetings and so on.
