nixos/munin: move from /var/run to /run #47775

as using /var/run now emits a warning by systemd's tmpfiles.d.
As /var/run is already a symlink to /run, this can't break anything, and
data does not need to be migrated.

Motivation for this change

Without this patch, systemd-tmpfiles shows this error when munin is enabled:

[/etc/tmpfiles.d/nixos.conf:8] Line references path below legacy directory /var/run/, updating /var/run/munin → /run/munin; please update the tmpfiles.d/ drop-in file accordingly.
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)
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

@volth I was not aware of problems with tmpfiles, thank you for that hint!

I'd still argue that moving this, and everything else as in #47856, to /run makes sense as that directory is oficially deprecated by systemd, even if it does not produce an error message anymore.
