fix(docker): declaratively apply groupmod --non-unique for IPA GID conflict
Check NixOS configurations / eval-hosts (pull_request) Successful in 10m33s

NixOS's group activation uses plain groupmod, which silently skips the
GID change when SSSD exposes the same GID (50010) via the IPA
docker-access group through NSS.  Add an activation script that runs
after the normal 'groups' step and applies groupmod --non-unique so the
local docker group can share GID 50010 with the SSSD-provided IPA group.
If the GID actually changes on a live system the script also restarts
docker.socket + docker.service so the socket is recreated with the new
GID.
