matthewcroughan c53e5201f4 nixos/scion: make storing path database optional
Storing the SCION path sqlite databases persistently on disk is a valid
setup that improves performance, but may have outstanding bugs that need
to be investigated, so this makes persisent storage optional, off by
default.

Setting this value to false (stateful) can lead to improved caching and
performance.
This option decides whether to persist the SCION path sqlite databases
on disk or not. Persisting this data can lead to database corruption in
extreme cases such as power outage, meaning SCION fails to work on the
next boot. This is being investigated.
If true, /run/scion-* is used for data
If false, use /var/lib/scion-* is used for data

SCION is a routing protocol and requires bootstrapping with a manual, imperative key signing ceremony. You may want to join an existing Isolation Domain (ISD) such as scionlab.org, or bootstrap your own. If you have completed and configured the public key infrastructure for SCION and are sure this process is complete, then add the following to your configuration:
services.scion.bypassBootstrapWarning = true;
refer to docs.scion.org for more information
'';
}
];
};
