This release includes some fixes users reported on Macs (notably #212) and introduces a new init-less option for Linux.

Using --init none lets users enjoy Nix in places where an init system is not present. Since the darwin-multi and the steam-deck planners require the init system for mounting /nix, they did not receive a similar option. --init none permits use cases such as WSL2 (without Systemd) or inside running Docker containers.

Users of the linux-multi planner can also try --no-start-daemon which allows for Nix to be installed during a docker build command.
