nixos: configure bash prompt in Emacs' shell-mode, even if TERM=dumb
The idea that the interactive bash prompt isn't set in case of TERM=dumb is intended to fix problems when other machines log remotely into a NixOS installation via Tramp. A side-effect that change was, however, that Emacs' shell-mode no longer had a correct prompt. I suppose the presence of INSIDE_EMACS=24.5.2,comint is a sufficiently unique indication that the current interactive shell is running inside of an Emacs and that the prompt can thus be configured safely.
