Update all channel URLs from https://nixos.org/channels/ to
https://channels.nixos.org/ to use the more reliable subdomain.
The nixos.org domain apex lacks IPv6 support due to DNS hoster
limitations. Using the subdomain allows better CDN distribution
and improved reliability.
Updated files:
- Installation scripts (multi-user and tarball installers)
- Channel URL resolution in eval-settings.cc
- Documentation and examples
- Docker image default channel URL
- Release notes (added note about URL change)
Fixes#14517
-p preserves xattrs and acls which can be incompatible between
filesystems
Unfortunately keep -p on darwin because the bsd coreutils do not
support --preserve.
