Motivation for this change

Let's not make our testing harder than necessary by default.
The default has been unchanged for a decade. Space is cheaper and
software catches up with that.

Also the disk is a sparse file anyway, and not an output, so there's no real cost.

Things done
  • Built on platform(s)
    • x86_64-linux
    • aarch64-linux
    • x86_64-darwin
    • aarch64-darwin
  • For non-Linux: Is sandbox = true set in nix.conf? (See Nix manual)
  • Tested, as applicable:
  • Tested compilation of all packages that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nixpkgs-review --run "nixpkgs-review wip"
  • Tested basic functionality of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • 21.11 Release Notes (or backporting 21.05 Release notes)
    • (Package updates) Added a release notes entry if the change is major or breaking
    • (Module updates) Added a release notes entry if the change is significant
    • (Module addition) Added a release notes entry if adding a new NixOS module
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

The default has been unchanged for a decade. Space is cheaper and
software catches up with that. Let's not make our testing harder
than necessary by default.
