- `virtualisation.azure.agent` option provided by `azure-agent.nix` is replaced by `services.waagent`, and will be removed in a future release.

- The ZFS import service now respects `fileSystems.*.options = [ "noauto" ];` and does not add that pool's import service to `zfs-import.target`, meaning it will not be automatically imported at boot.

- Default file names of images generated by several builders in `system.build` have been changed as outlined in the table below.

  Names are now known at evaluation time and customizable via the new options `image.baseName`, `image.extension`, `image.fileName` and `image.filePath` with the latter returning a path relative to the derivations out path (e.g. `iso/${image.fileName` for iso images).

Title: NixOS 25.05: Azure Agent Replacement, ZFS Import Behavior, and System Build Filename Changes

Summary

The `virtualisation.azure.agent` option is being replaced by `services.waagent`. The ZFS import service now respects `fileSystems.*.options = [ "noauto" ];`. Default filenames for images generated by several builders in `system.build` have been changed, and names are now customizable via new `image` options. A table outlines the old and new filenames for various image types (Amazon, Azure, Digital Ocean, Google Compute, HyperV, ISO, KubeVirt, Linode, LXC, OCI, OpenStack, SD card, Vagrant/VirtualBox, and VMware).
