2024-05-15doc: add release note credits and categories for all the changes in LixJade Lovelace
This does not add missing release notes, and it doesn't do anything about the profiles feature we would really like to have so we can have consistent credit. Change-Id: I72a6f7acfcff85f380be17dac76501a6f4693776
2024-04-29fix `nix upgrade-nix` on new-style profilesQyriad
nix3-profile automatically migrates any profile its used on to its style of profile -- the ones with manifest.json instead of manifest.nix. On non-NixOS systems, Nix is conventionally installed to the profile at /nix/var/nix/profiles/default, so if a user passed that to `--profile` of `nix profile`, then it would break upgrade-nix from ever working again, without recreating the profile. This commit fixes that, and allows upgrade-nix to work on either kind of profile. Fixes #16. Change-Id: I4c49b1beba93bb50e8f8a107edc451affe08c3f7
