Allow setting the bootstrap password on invocation of `nixos-anywhere`. This makes use of the `sshpass` program, to provide `ssh-copy-id` with the password. The `runtimeDeps` change in the following way: sshpass: ∅ → 1.10, +29.5 KiB Improves the usage especially together with the iso image installers of `nixos-images`.

So when we create a new virtual machine that has a predefined user password (i'm planning of trying out Hetzner), instead of logging-in manually and adding our local ssh key into the VM's SSH_PASS=<vm-password> nixos-anywhere --env-password <user>@<ip>...directly? That would be/is a great quality of life improvement! |

Yes, that was the motivation, though I haven't tested it yet with hetzner. |
