The `network-link-${i.name}` units raced with other things trying to configure the interface, or ran before the interface was available. Instead of running our own set of shell scripts on boot, and hoping they're executed at the right time, we can make use of udev to configure the interface *while they appear*, by providing `.link` files in /etc/systemd/network/*.link to set MACAddress and MTUBytes. This doesn't require networkd to be enabled, and is populated properly on non-networkd systems since https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/82941. This continues clean-up work done in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/85170 for the scripted networking stack. The only leftover part of the `network-link-${i.name}` unit (bringing the interface up) is moved to the beginning of the `network-addresses-${i.name}` unit.

To build the manual, you need Nix installed on your system (no need for NixOS). To install Nix, follow the instructions at https://nixos.org/nix/download.html When you have Nix on your system, in the root directory of the project (i.e., `nixpkgs`), run: nix-build nixos/release.nix -A manual.x86_64-linux When this command successfully finishes, it will tell you where the manual got generated.
