chore(matic): Remove Falcon, Kolide, and install ISO - #2082
Conversation
Drop CrowdStrike Falcon sensor packaging and the optional falcon.nix import gate, Kolide launcher, and maticIso flake/eval targets. Also remove the Falcon-only 6.18 kernel pin so matic uses the default kernel.

Code Review
This pull request removes the CrowdStrike Falcon sensor and Kolide launcher configurations, scripts, packages, and associated tests from the matic host configuration. It also removes the matic ISO bootstrap configuration (iso.nix) and its evaluation checks. I have no feedback to provide as there are no review comments.

Analysis
• Security posture materially changes with EDR and device trust removal, but the PR lacks documentation of the security rationale or compensating controls—this creates an implicit security decision that may not be visible to future maintainers or auditors
• Dynamic linking infrastructure (nix-ld) remains enabled despite its primary use case being removed—clarify whether legitimate uses justify its retention or if it should also be decommissioned
• No safeguards exist to prevent accidental reintroduction of removed modules during future refactoring—consider adding assertions that matic explicitly does not import the deleted security modules
• Kernel unpinning removes explicit documentation of why the pin existed, which may cause future maintainers to wonder about the historical constraint—add a brief comment explaining the pin was Falcon-specific
