Using `configure_file` to copy files has been deprecated since Meson 0.64.0.
The intended replacement is the `fs.copyfile` method.
This removes the following deprecation warning that arises when a minimum
Meson version is specified:
``
Project [...] uses feature deprecated since '0.64.0': copy arg in configure_file. Use fs.copyfile instead
``

The configured sysconfdir is used to look for nix.conf, so it needs
to be /etc, and not $out/etc, so we separate out the place where shell
profile files are installed, which is the only other place sysconfdir is
at all used.
See lix-project/lix#231 (comment)
for more info.

Functional tests can be run with
`meson test -C build --suite installcheck`.
Notably, functional tests must be run *after* running `meson install`
(Lix's derivation runs the installcheck suite in installCheckPhase so it
does this correctly), due to some quirks between Meson and the testing
system.
As far as I can tell the functional tests are meant to be run after
installing anyway, but unfortunately I can't transparently make
`meson test --suite installcheck` depend on the install targets.
The script that runs the functional tests, meson/run-test.py, checks
that `meson install` has happened and fails fast with a (hopefully)
helpful error message if any of the functional tests are run before
installing.
