  1. linux_5_7: init at 5.7.1

    Changes:
    - Copied linux-5.7.nix from linux-5.6.nix
    - Add linux_5_7 and linuxPackages_5_7
    - Update linux_latest to 5.7
    
    Note:
    The kernel patch 'kernelPatches.export_kernel_fpu_functions."5.3"' is
    still applied as I copied the list from linux_5_7 (vs. linux_testing).
    This patch is probably still required for the ZFS performance.

  1. hardenedLinuxPackagesFor: Make it possible to delay major updates

    This adds an abstraction/hack to update the latest hardened kernel
    independent of linux_latest, which is required as the hardened patches
    aren't immediately available ([0] currently doesn't exist).
    Currently the Linux hardened patches aren't even available for 5.7 which
    was released on 2020-05-31 (already 9 days ago!).
    Therefore it is required to keep both linuxPackages_latest_hardened and
    linuxPackages_latest_xen_dom0_hardened at 5.6 until the patches for 5.7
    are released.
    
    This abstraction makes that task more manageable but we should aim for a
    better solution to resolve this or at least a cleaner and more robust
    implementation (in the sense of better error messages).
