Motivation for this change

This installs the network drivers for rtl8812au, rtl8814au, and rtl8821au.

I have a Tplink T9UH that required this driver to get working. The T9UH uses the rtl8814au driver, but the current package at https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/pkgs/os-specific/linux/rtl8814au/default.nix is broken, and bumping it to master of that repo allows it to build but does not get the card working. As per, Arch's AUR the aircrack-ng repo worked instead.
