Differing from the current official [Nix](https://github.com/NixOS/nix) installer scripts:
* Nix is installed with the `nix-command` and `flakes` features enabled in the `nix.conf`
* `nix-installer` stores an installation receipt (for uninstalling) at `/nix/receipt.json` as well as a copy of the install binary at `/nix/nix-installer`
* In `nix.conf`:
+ the `nix-command` and `flakes` features are enabled
+ `bash-prompt-prefix` is set
+ `auto-optimise-store` is set to `true`
* `extra-nix-path` is set to `nixpkgs=flake:nixpkgs`
* an installation receipt (for uninstalling) is stored at `/nix/receipt.json` as well as a copy of the install binary at `/nix/nix-installer`
* `nix-channel --update` is not run, `~/.nix-channels` is not provisioned
