Reverts #344407

This has broken nixos-rebuild switch so that it no longer updates the profile, which has bad consequences including not updating the systemd-boot menu with new generations.

The most notable deviation of this profile from a standard NixOS configuration
is that after building it, you cannot switch *to* the configuration anymore.
The profile sets `config.system.switch.enable = false;`, which excludes
`apply` and `switch-to-configuration`, the central scripts called by `nixos-rebuild`, from
`switch-to-configuration`, the central script called by `nixos-rebuild`, from
your system. Removing this script makes the image lighter and slightly more
secure.

`nixos-rebuild`, like many deployment solutions, calls `apply` (or for NixOS older than 24.11, `switch-to-configuration`)
which resides in a NixOS system at `$out/bin/apply`. The
`nixos-rebuild`, like many deployment solutions, calls `switch-to-configuration`
which resides in a NixOS system at `$out/bin/switch-to-configuration`. The
script is called with the action that is to be performed like `switch`, `test`,
`boot`. There is also the `dry-activate` action which does not really perform
the actions but rather prints what it would do if you called it with `test`.
