Motivation for this change

This is a more sane default since we do not magically (without opt-in)
pull in binaries from ~/bin. That is not really an expected behavior
for many users. Users that still want that behavior can now just flip
that switch.

cc @chkno @worldofpeace both have been involved in #68483

  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • macOS
    • other Linux distributions
  • Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nix-review --run "nix-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Determined the impact on package closure size (by running nix path-info -S before and after)

Maybe this could look at the stateVersion? I would find that a reasonable use of stateVersion.

@andir This seems fine to me, didn't get much more response so feel free to rebase and merge.

Not really in favor of this. It seems like an unnecessary incompatibility.
