Add configuration for a new VPS named Giga #1

Currently, my self-hosted applications are deployed manually on a VPS that use Ubuntu 20.04. I want to use NixOS instead, and bought another VPS for that. On that VPS, nixos-infect was installed, but there are works needed to fully migrate from the old VPS to the new one.

Some questions to be figured out:

Even though NixOS was ready on machine B, we need manual steps to add a non-root user. Should this be automated somehow?
The initialization also requires a "fixed" SSH key (users.users.root.openssh.authorizedKeys.keys=...) to be login-able, which is cumbersome. Is there a better way to do this?

Migration checklist:

[x] Islet
[x] qBitTorrent
[ ] Files
[x] Feeds
[ ] ~~Analytics~~: this was not needed anymore after we migrated Islet to Cloudflare Pages
- [ ] ~~Postgres?~~
[ ] Esoterica: to be considered
[ ] ~~Boards~~: I did not use this that much
