New ntopng version supports running as specified user. Create a separate
user for ntopng with a separate Redis instance.
Separate instance is only used for new `system.stateVersion`s to avoid
breaking existing setups. To configure that we add two new options,
`redis.address` and `redis.createInstance`. They can also be used to
specify your own Redis address.
escape interpolations in descriptions where possible, replace them with

Using pkgs.lib on the spine of module evaluation is problematic

modules are evaluated twice, which is inefficient. Using ‘with lib’
prevents this problem.
ntopng is a high-speed web-based traffic analysis and flow collection
