Motivation for this change

When dealing with NVIDIA drivers, you end up with bad resolution in terminal-only mode. This can be fixed by setting gfxpayload to keep. However, the package currently hard codes text for BIOS. This change should be fully backwards-compatible and just introduces a place override the behaviour.

Things done
  • Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS)
  • 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 nox --run "nox-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)
  • Assured whether relevant documentation is up to date
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

Just to be sure, though it ran locally

@GrahamcOfBorg test installer.simple installer.simpleUefi

Only change I would like is to have the commits squashed into one. Otherwise this looks alright!

The last force-push does the squash. I made it so, that the previous version and this one have binary identical content and differ only in history. So a new round of testing shouldn't be needed.
