nixos configuration: home-manager: two-way sync with dotfiles

[milahu]

when i change dotfiles, these changes should be synced back to my home-manager config
so i can use all the apps' default graphical config editors to modify my nixos config

example

plasma6 > panel > panel configuration > disable floating

--- a/.config/plasmashellrc
+++ b/.config/plasmashellrc
@@ -9,7 +9,7 @@
 Number of Actions=0
 
 [PlasmaViews][Panel 2]
-floating=1
+floating=0
 
 [PlasmaViews][Panel 2][Defaults]
 thickness=40

this change from default to non-default config should add
something like this to my home-manager config

{
  home-config."user" = {
    plasma6 = {
      # /home/user/.config/plasmashellrc
      plasmashellrc = {
        PlasmaViews = {
          # [PlasmaViews][Panel 2]
          "Panel 2" = {
            # floating=0
            floating = 0;
          };
        };
      };
    };
  };
}

after nixos-rebuild switch the generated file /home/user/.config/plasmashellrc
should be writable by the user, so he can continue modifying the config
