linux: fix error with IR remotes

Support for IR remotes was originally introduced in NixOS in 2013 with
[1]. This worked fine until 2018 with the release of Linux 4.16 which
contained [2], which removed the default-enable on the IR decoders.
This means that kernels since then build with RC_DEVICES enabled, but
RC_DECODERS disabled:
```
CONFIG_RC_DEVICES=y
```

This breaks IR remote support and also leads to the following error on
every bootup when such a device is present as devices have a default
keymap which uses a protocols decoder, but these decoders are not
available:
```
rc_core: Loaded IR protocol module ir-rc6-decoder, but protocol rc-6 still not available
```

Fix this by also enabling RC_DECODERS in the kernel configuration.
