ci performance: add check to ensure nothing depends on the whole repo

Since this project is an ever growing monorepo, having derivations depending on the whole repo leads to bad CI performance, as the cache is busted on every commit.

-> We never want any derivations depend on the whole repo

...except: the test that tests that nothing depends on the whole repo, which is added by this commit.

    This doesn't work because all instance configs are applied to the same namespace. So this results in a conflict currently.
    Resolving this problem means that new inventory modules cannot be plain nixos modules anymore. If they are configured via `instances` / `instanceConfig` they cannot be configured without using the inventory.

-# ADR Numbering process
-
-## Status
-
-Proposed after some conversation between @lassulus, @Mic92, & @lopter.
-
-## Context
-
-It can be useful to refer to ADRs by their numbers, rather than their full title. To that end, short and sequential numbers are useful.
-
-The issue is that an ADR number is effectively assigned when the ADR is merged, before being merged its number is provisional. Because multiple ADRs can be written at the same time, you end-up with multiple provisional ADRs with the same number, for example this is the third ADR-3:
-
-1. ADR-3-clan-compat: see [#3212];
-2. ADR-3-fetching-nix-from-python: see [#3452];
-3. ADR-3-numbering-process: this ADR.
-
-This situation makes it impossible to refer to an ADR by its number, and why I (@lopter) went with the arbitrary number 7 in [#3196].
-
-We could solve this problem by using the PR number as the ADR number (@lassulus). The issue is that PR numbers are getting big in clan-core which does not make them easy to remember, or use in conversation and code (@lopter).
-
-Another approach would be to move the ADRs in a different repository, this would reset the counter back to 1, and make it straightforward to keep ADR and PR numbers in sync (@lopter). The issue then is that ADR are not in context with their changes which makes them more difficult to review (@Mic92).
-
-## Decision
-
-A third approach would be to:
-
-1. Commit ADRs before they are approved, so that the next ADR number gets assigned;
-1. Open a PR for the proposed ADR;
-1. Update the ADR file committed in step 1, so that its markdown contents point to the PR that tracks it.
-
-## Consequences
-
-### ADR have unique and memorable numbers trough their entire life cycle
-
-This makes it easier to refer to them in conversation or in code.
-
-### You need to have commit access to get an ADR number assigned
-
-This makes it more difficult for someone external to the project to contribute an ADR.
-
-### Creating a new ADR requires multiple commits

-Maybe a script or CI flow could help with that if it becomes painful.

-
-## Context
-
-In our clan-cli we need to get a lot of values from nix into the python runtime. This is used to determine the hostname, the target ips address, scripts to generate vars, file locations and many more.
-
-Currently we use two different accessing methods:
-
-### Method 1: deployment.json
-
-A json file that serializes some predefined values into a JSON file as build-time artifact.
-
-Downsides:
-
-* no access to flake level values
-* all or nothing:
-  * values are either cached via deployment.json or not. So we can only put cheap values into there,
-  * in the past var generation script were added here, which added a huge build time overhead for every time we wanted to do any action
-* duplicated nix code
-  * values need duplicated nix code, once to define them at the correct place in the module system (clan.core.vars.generators) and code to accumulate them again for the deployment.json (system.clan.deployment.data)
-  * This duality adds unnecessary dependencies to the nixos module system.
-
-Benefits:
-
-* Utilize `nix build` for caching the file.
-* Caching mechanism is very simple.
-
-
-### Method 2: Direct access:
-
-Directly calling the evaluator / build sandbox via `nix build` and `nix eval`within the Python code
-
-
-Downsides:
-
-* Access is not cached: Static overhead (see below: \~1.5s) is present every time, if we invoke `nix commands`
-  * The static overhead depends obviously which value we need to retrieve, since the `evalModules` overhead depends, whether we evaluate some attribute inside a machine or a flake attribute
-  * Accessing more and more attributes with this method increases the static overhead, which leads to a linear decrease in performance.
-* Boilerplate for interacting with the CLI and Error handling code is repeated every time.
-
-Benefits:
-
-* Simple and native interaction with the `nix commands`is rather intuitive
-* Custom error handling for each attribute is easy
-
-This sytem could be enhanced with custom nix expressions, which could be used in places where we don't want to put values into deployment.json or want to fetch flake level values. This also has some downsides:
-
-* technical debt
-  * we have to maintain custom nix expressions inside python code, embedding code is error prone and the language linters won't help you here, so errors are common and harder to debug.
-  * we need custom error reporting code in case something goes wrong, either the value doesn't exist or there is an reported build error
-* no caching/custom caching logic
-  * currently there is no infrastructure to cache those extra values, so we would need to store them somewhere, we could either enhance one of the many classes we have or don't cache them at all
-  * even if we implement caching for extra nix expressions, there can be no sharing between extra nix expressions. for example we have 2 nix expressions, one fetches paths and values for all generators and the second one fetches only the values, we still need to execute both of them in both contexts although the second one could be skipped if the first one is already cached
-
-### Method 3: nix select
-
-Move all code that extracts nix values into a common class:
-
-Downsides:
-* added complexity for maintaining our own DSL
-
-Benefits:
-* we can implement an API (select DSL) to get those values from nix without writing complex nix expressions.
-* we can implement caching of those values beyond the runtime of the CLI
-* we can use precaching at different endpoints to eliminate most of multiple nix evaluations (except in cases where we have to break the cache or we don't know if we need the value in the value later and getting it is expensive).
-
-
-
-## Decision
-
-Use Method 3 (nix select) for extracting values out of nix.
-
-This adds the Flake class in flake.py with a select method, which takes a selector string and returns a python dict.
-
-Example:
-```python
-from clan_lib.flake import Flake
-flake = Flake("github:lassulus/superconfig")
-flake.select("nixosConfigurations.*.config.networking.hostName)
-```
-returns:
-```
-{
-  "ignavia": "ignavia",
-  "mors": "mors",
-  ...
-}
-```
-
-## Consequences
-
-* Faster execution due to caching most things beyond a single execution, if no cache break happens execution is basically instant, because we don't need to run nix again.
-* Better error reporting, since all nix values go through one chokepoint, we can parse error messages in that chokepoint and report them in a more user friendly way, for example if a value is missing at the expected location inside the module system.
-* less embedded nix code inside python code
-* more portable CLI, since we need to import less modules into the module system and most things can be extracted by the python code directly

-# deployment parameters: evalHost, buildHost, targetHost
-
-## Status
-
-accepted
-
-## Context
-
-Currently different operations (install, update) have different modes. Install always evals locally and pushes the derivation to a remote system. update has a configurable buildHost and targetHost.
-Confusingly install always evals locally and update always evals on the targetHost, so hosts have different semantics in different operations contexts.
-
-## Decision
-
-Add evalHost to make this clear and configurable for the user. This would leave us with:
-
-- evalHost
-- buildHost
-- targetHost
-
-for the update and install operation.
-
-`evalHost` would be the machine that evaluates the nixos configuration. if evalHost is not localhost, we upload the non secret vars and the nix archived flake (this is usually the same operation) to the evalMachine.
-
-`buildHost` would be what is used by the machine to build, it would correspond to `--build-host` on the nixos-rebuild command or `--builders` for nix build.
-
-`targetHost` would be the machine where the closure gets copied to and activated (either through install or switch-to-configuration). It corresponds to `--targetHost` for nixos-rebuild or where we usually point `nixos-anywhere` to.
-
-This hosts could be set either through CLI args (or forms for the GUI) or via the inventory. If both are given, the CLI args would take precedence.
-
-## Consequences
-
-We now support every deployment model of every tool out there with a bunch of simple flags. The semantics are more clear and we can write some nice documentation.
-
-The install code has to be reworked, since nixos-anywhere has problems with evalHost and targetHost being the same machine, So we would need to kexec first and use the kexec image (or installer) as the evalHost afterwards.
-
-In cases where the evalHost doesn't have access to the targetHost or buildHost, we need to setup temporary entries for the lifetime of the command.

+## Revolutionizing Server Management
+
+In the world of server management, countless tools claim to offer seamless deployment of multiple machines. Yet, many fall short, leaving server admins and self-hosting enthusiasts grappling with complexity. Enter the Clan-Core Framework—a groundbreaking all in one solution designed to transform decentralized self-hosting into an effortless and scalable endeavor.
+
+### The Power of Clan-Core
+
+Imagine having the power to manage your servers with unparalleled ease, scaling your IT infrastructure like never before. Clan-Core empowers you to do just that. At its core, Clan-Core leverages a single Git repository to define everything about your machines. This central repository utilizes Nix or JSON files to specify configurations, including disk formatting, ensuring a streamlined and unified approach.
+
+### Simplified Deployment Process
+
+With Clan-Core, the cumbersome task of bootstrapping a specific ISO is a thing of the past. All you need is SSH access to your Linux server. Clan-Core allows you to overwrite any existing Linux distribution live over SSH, eliminating time-consuming setup processes. This capability means you can deploy updates or new configurations swiftly and efficiently, maximizing uptime and minimizing hassle.
+
+### Secure and Efficient Secret Management
+
+Security is paramount in server management, and Clan-Core takes it seriously. Passwords and other sensitive information are encrypted within the Git repository, automatically decrypted during deployment. This not only ensures the safety of your secrets but also simplifies their management. Clan-Core supports sharing secrets with other admins, fostering collaboration and maintaining reproducibillity and security without sacrificing convenience.
+
+### Services as Apps
+
+Setting up a service can be quite difficult. Many server adjustments need to be made, from setting up a database to adjusting webserver configurations and generating the correct private keys. However, Clan-Core aims to make setting up a service as easy as installing an application. Through Clan-Core's Module system, everything down to secrets can be automatically set up. This transforms the often daunting task of service setup into a smooth, automated process, making it accessible to all.
+
+### Decentralized Mesh VPN
+
+Building on these features is a self-configuring decentralized mesh VPN that interconnects all your machines into a private darknet. This ensures that sensitive services, which might have too much attack surface to be hosted on the public internet, can still be made available privately without the need to worry about potential system compromise. By creating a secure, private network, Clan-Core offers an additional layer of protection for your most critical services.
+
+### Decentralized Domain Name System
+
+Current DNS implementations are distributed but not truly decentralized. For Clan-Core, we implemented our own truly decentralized DNS module. This module uses simple flooding and caching algorithms to discover available domains inside the darknet. This approach ensures that your internal domain name system is robust, reliable, and independent of external control, enhancing the resilience and security of your infrastructure.
+
+
+### A New Era of Decentralized Self-Hosting
+
+Clan-Core is more than just a tool; it's a paradigm shift in server management. By consolidating machine definitions, secrets and network configuration, into a single, secure repository, it transforms how you manage and scale your infrastructure. Whether you're a seasoned server admin or a self-hosting enthusiast, Clan-Core offers a powerful, user-friendly solution to take your capabilities to the next level.
+
+
+### Key Features of Clan-Core:
+
+- **Unified Git Repository**: All machine configurations and secrets stored in a single repository.
+- **Live Overwrites**: Deploy configurations over existing Linux distributions via SSH.
+- **Automated Service Setup**: Easily set up services with Clan-Core's Module system.
+- **Decentralized Mesh VPN**: Securely interconnect all machines into a private darknet.
+- **Decentralized DNS**: Robust, independent DNS using flooding and caching algorithms.
+- **Automated Secret Management**: Encrypted secrets that are automatically decrypted during deployment.
+- **Collaboration Support**: Share secrets securely with other admins.
+
+
+## Clan-Cores Future
+
+Our vision for Clan-Core extends far beyond being just another deployment tool. Clan-Core is a framework we've developed to achieve something much greater. We want to put the "personal" back into "personal computing." Our goal is for everyday users to fully customize their phones or laptops and create truly private spaces for friends and family.
+
+Our first major step is to develop a Graphical User Interface (GUI) that makes configuring all this possible. Initial tests have shown that AI can be leveraged as an alternative to traditional GUIs. This paves the way for a future where people can simply talk to their computers, and they will configure themselves according to the users' wishes. 
+
+By adopting Clan, you're not just embracing a tool—you're joining a movement towards a more efficient, secure, and scalable approach to server management. Join us and revolutionize your IT infrastructure today.
