/ on tmpfs, wipe root on reboot #89

@rvolosatovs

Description

@rvolosatovs

The proposal is to completely wipe the machines on reboot except for the things that have to persist (e.g. the services, secrets and host SSH keys)
We can use https://github.com/nix-community/impermanence to specify paths should should persist on reboot, everything else will be wiped out.
