2022-03-17util/liveiso: Remove coreboot toolchain from todoFelix Singer
The coreboot toolchain is a huge blob and increases the size of the build a lot. If needed, the specific toolchain can be added before building the ISO or with `nix-shell` later in the live system, as shown below. $ nix-shell -p coreboot-toolchain.i386 Thus, remove this from the todo list.

2022-02-21util/liveiso: Use programs.flashrom.enableFelix Singer
NixOS 21.11 introduced the option `programs.flashrom.enable`. The option allows installing flashrom and hooking up its udev rules. Thus, set it to `true` and add the user `user` to the `flashrom` group allowing it to use the programmers.

2021-09-16util/liveiso: Make neovim the default editorFelix Singer
Make neovim the default editor and create an alias for vim. The NixOS module for neovim is currently broken. Thus, add a note to `description.md` to switch to that later.

2021-09-03util/liveiso: Add NixOS configs for bootable live systemsFelix Singer
Add NixOS configurations for bootable live systems containing a set of tools which might be useful for firmware development in general and for working on coreboot. There are two configurations provided. One for console-only and a graphical one, which is mostly the same as the console image but it comes with Gnome Shell as window manager and some graphical tools in addition. An image can be built using `build-console.sh`, respectively `build-graphical.sh`. The resulting iso image can be found in `result/iso/`. The console image results in ~700MB, while the graphical one results in ~2GB.
