Uninstall: wait until nothing uses /nix before removing Nix
nix-installer uninstall failed at `systemctl stop nix.mount` ("Job
failed") while programs started from the Nix store still ran: a terminal
session's tools, or apps that mapped Home Manager's mime.cache.
- Before nix-installer runs, after Home Manager is gone, uninstall scans
/proc for the user's processes whose exe, cwd, root, an fd or a mapped
file is in /nix, and lists them by name and PID (the shells it was
started from included; itself, its subshells and its curl | bash
pipeline skipped). Close them and press Enter to re-check, or abort;
with --yes or without a terminal it stops: "close these or reboot, then
run uninstall again". Nothing is killed (replaces the old kill prompt).
- nix-installer runs from a copy outside /nix.
- cleanup check H: a fake /proc (STEAM_FRAME_NIX_PROC) with programs from
the store stops before Nix; without them Nix is removed.
