Changed paths:

Log Message:
-----------
nixos: move environment.{variables => sessionVariables}.MODULE_DIR
This solves the problem that modprobe does not know about $MODULE_DIR
when run via sudo, and instead wrongly tries to read /lib/modules/:
$ sudo strace -efile modprobe foo |& grep modules
open("/lib/modules/3.14.37/modules.softdep", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = -1 ENOENT
(No such file or directory)
open("/lib/modules/3.14.37/modules.dep.bin", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = -1 ENOENT
(No such file or directory)
open("/lib/modules/3.14.37/modules.dep.bin", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = -1 ENOENT
(No such file or directory)
open("/lib/modules/3.14.37/modules.alias.bin", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = -1
ENOENT (No such file or directory)
Without this patch, one would have to use sudo -E (preserves environment
vars). But that option is reserved for sudo users with extra rights
(SETENV), so it's not a solution.
environment.sessionVariables are set by PAM, so they are included in the
environment used by sudo.
