 nixos/kernel: drop boot.vesa 
Deprecated in 2020 because Xorg works better with kernel modesetting,
and the original 800x600 default is rarely the right choice anyway.
Users who still need a VESA fallback can inline
`boot.kernelParams = [ "vga=0x317" "nomodeset" ];`.

`mkRemovedOptionModule` makes the removal noisy: setting `boot.vesa`
will now fail evaluation with a pointer to the replacement.

Backward Incompatibilities

  • boot.vesa has been removed. It was deprecated in 2020 because Xorg now works better with kernel modesetting. If you still need the legacy VESA 800x600 fallback, set boot.kernelParams = [ "vga=0x317" "nomodeset" ]; directly.
