sops-install-secrets: call systemctl directly when run as a systemd unit
When useSystemdActivation is enabled, sops-install-secrets.service runs
ordered Before=sysinit-reactivation.target, which switch-to-configuration
restarts *after* it has already consumed /run/nixos/activation-*-list.
Writing to those files from the service therefore does nothing on the
current switch and leaks into the next one.

NixOS 26.05 also deprecates the activation-list mechanism, printing a
warning whenever the files exist, with removal planned for 26.11.

Detect systemd invocation via INVOCATION_ID and call systemctl directly
(try-restart / try-reload-or-restart, --no-block to avoid deadlocking
the sysinit transaction). The legacy activation-script path keeps
writing the list files for backward compatibility.
