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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
