Use nix for kernel bisects

Disclaimer: This is WIP

This flake can be used to build a number of kernel commits for the sake of bisecting a bug. The basic idea is this:

• configure a number of kernels you want to prebuild
• nix build .#kernelFarm over night with remote builders
• all requested kernels are now prebuilt in your nix store
• do the actual bisecting by replacing the kernel in you nixosConfiguration (boot.kernelPackages = pkgs.linuxPackagesFor SELECTED_KERNEL_HERE)
