Add a simple forgejo actions workflow than runs in host mode on a nixos machine/container - this felt like the simplest environment to get working initially. Ultimately it would be good to run in a docker container in any environment.

Try to make tier0-nixos more easily buildable by CI:

- the vm-images repo has been tweaked to expose the actual nixos
   system configuration as well as just the built qcow2 image. This
   means the base configuration doesn't need to be duplicated here

 - vm-images is referenced by the top-level flake.nix, but the
   corpix/nixos provider doesn't use flakes to (re) build the nixos
   configuration. Therefore we add flake-compat to the flake to
   make it easier to reference from non-flake code

 - nix seems gets fussy about symlinks in this situation, so we
   expose the top level directory in an environment variable
   in the devShell, to be passed terraform

 - terraform then needs to pass this back to nix, which required
   some messing with the wrapper.nix used by corpix/nixos, and
   passing a specialArg into the system configuration build (can't
   use an ordinary module option, results in infrec)

I think this makes sense, and I even almost follow it :)

I moved the main bit of this to a new branch & PR seeing you were already depending on it, I will go ahead and merge that one ..
