After the static IP change, k3s/flannel pod networking broke because
ip_forward was 0. NixOS doesn't enable IP forwarding by default — it
was previously being set implicitly somewhere in the NM-managed /
scripted-DHCP path. With static networking we have to set it ourselves.
Verified at runtime via sysctl -w before adding here; pod outbound
came back immediately and Tailscale VIP services recovered without
any pod restarts.

Removes DHCP lease renewal as a failure mode on ringtail after an outage
on 2026-05-12 where the IP and routes silently disappeared from enp5s0
without any kernel link event. NetworkManager stays enabled for wireless
fallback but no longer manages the wired interface.
