`systemd.hideProcessInformation = true`, would break interactions
requiring polkit arbitration such as initating poweroff/reboot as a
normal user; the polkit daemon cannot be expected to make decisions
about processes that don't exist as far as it is concerned.
systemd-logind lacks the `sys_ptrace` capability and so needs to be part
of the designated proc gid, even though it runs as root.
Fixes https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/20948

A new internal config option `fileSystems.<name>.early` is added to indicate
that the filesystem needs to be loaded very early (i.e. in initrd). They are
transformed to a shell script in `system.build.earlyMountScript` with calls to
an undefined `specialMount` function, which is expected to be caller-specific.
This option is used by stage-1, stage-2 and activation script to set up and
remount those filesystems. Options for them are updated according to systemd
defaults.

This module adds an option `security.hideProcessInformation` that, when
enabled, restricts access to process information such as command-line
arguments to the process owner. The module adds a static group "proc"
whose members are exempt from process information hiding.
Ideally, this feature would be implemented by simply adding the
appropriate mount options to `fileSystems."/proc".fsOptions`, but this
was found to not work in vmtests. To ensure that process information
hiding is enforced, we use a systemd service unit that remounts `/proc`
after `systemd-remount-fs.service` has completed.
To verify the correctness of the feature, simple tests were added to
nixos/tests/misc: the test ensures that unprivileged users cannot see
process information owned by another user, while members of "proc" CAN.
Thanks to @abbradar for feedback and suggestions.
