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.

2021-12-26util/liveiso: Disable write protection of the intel-spi driverFelix Singer
The intel-spi driver maps the BIOS region of the flash as an mtd device at /dev/mtdX. Since this system is intended for development purposes, disable its write protection.

2021-12-26util/liveiso: Ensure compatible NixOS channel is usedFelix Singer
Config options and package names might change from channel to channel. Thus, don't let nix-build depend on the locally configured NixOS channel, but instead let `nixpkgs` point to a specific channel to ensure that always a compatible channel is used. For now, let `nixpkgs` point to NixOS 21.11, which is currently the latest stable release. This needs to be updated after a new release.

2021-09-15util/liveiso: Install UEFITool packagesFelix Singer
Install both versions of UEFITool, the one with the old engine and the new one. It's not possible to use both packages in the same environment, since there is a collision between the names of the binary files. To make sure a specific package is used, a new environment needs to be spawned with the following command: $ nix-shell -p <package_name> The UEFITool binaries can be executed from the shell then.

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.
