nixos: Require networking.hostName to be a valid DNS label
This also means that the hostname must not contain the domain name part
anymore (i.e. must not be a FQDN).
See RFC 1035 [0], "man 5 hostname", or the kernel documentation [1].
Note: For legacy reasons we also allow underscores inside of the label
but this is not recommended and intentionally left undocumented.

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.
