nixos-rebuild-ng: remove conditionals for Nix < 2.18

  your password wrong, it will fail during activation (this can be improved

  though)

- When `--build-host` and `--target-host` are used together, we will use `nix

  copy` (or 2 `nix-copy-closure` if you're using Nix <2.18) instead of SSH'ing

  to build host and using `nix-copy-closure --to target-host`. The reason for

  this is documented in PR

  copy` instead of SSH'ing to build host and using

  `nix-copy-closure --to target-host`. The reason for this is documented in PR

  [#364698](https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/364698). If you do need the

  previous behavior, you can simulate it using `ssh build-host --

  nixos-rebuild-ng switch --target-host target-host`. If that is not the case,

  and there was a need to bootstrap a new version of Nix before evaluating the

  configuration (otherwise the new Nixpkgs version may have code that is only

  compatible with a newer version of Nix). Nixpkgs now has a policy to be

  compatible with Nix 2.3, and even if this is bumped as long we don't do

  compatible with Nix 2.18, and even if this is bumped as long we don't do

  drastic minimum version changes this should not be an issue. Also, the daemon

  itself always run with the previous version since even we can replace Nix in

  `PATH` (so Nix client), but we can't replace the daemon without switching to

*--use-substitutes*

	When set, nixos-rebuild will add *--use-substitutes* to each invocation

	of _nix-copy-closure_/_nix copy_. This will only affect the behavior of

	nixos-rebuild if *--target-host* or *--build-host* is also set. This is

	useful when the target-host connection to cache.nixos.org is faster than

	the connection between hosts.
