Automated install

[srid]

Instead of pairing with folks to do manual setup of nix-dev-home on a computer with Nix installed, it'd be great to have an automated script that works like DetSys nix-installer.

It should do:

• Move user's .zshrc etc out of the way. Offer a prompt to do this.
• Fill in the template (cf. Add an interactive app flake-parts/templates#2)
  • Set username in flake.nix
  • Prompt user to set git meta (otherwise Git wouldn't work right off the bat #37)
• Run nix run
• Run nix-index to create the index for first time. (already automated)

Stretch:

• "Use template" via Github API to create the remote repo
• nix-health
  • Offer to resolve max-jobs/trusted-users automatically (requires Temp Admin Access)

• automatically parse alias, exports and add them to terminal.nix?

Yea we can, though it won't cover all cases, like bash functions, viz.:

I think we can do this as a flake app in this repo.
