Maintaining the home-manager module in the official repo

[aguirre-matteo]

I have noticed that there were a lot of changes to the Home-Manager module for walker since I added support for it in the upstream repo. I think it would be nice to sync the two modules and to add someone who contributes to walker to the maintainers list.

The package in nixpkgs is currently stuck at v0.13.26 from before walker and elephant split. NixOS/nixpkgs#448779. Until elephant gets a package it doesn't make sense to sync them. I would take over elephant but I don't know how to handle the providers. The current flake uses the modules to link the providers to the correct place but the systemd service in the nixos module currently doesn't work due to a missing user environment. This should be fixed before it's upstreamed.

It'd be nice to see elephant/walker up to date in nixpkgs!

@Ori-Riaru I have created a service in nixpkgs for elephant here and am updating walker here, are you still interested in updating and maintaining the home-manager walker module?
