Config options start with `systemd.user`

Home-manager manages the enabling and such based on the dependencies of the unit.
So we can something like
```
Install = {
  WantedBy = [ "default.target" ];
};
```

And it will enable it.

Another example
```nix
systemd.user.services.astal = {
  Unit = {
    Description = "Runs the astal bar instance";
    After = [ "graphical-session-pre.target" ];
  };
  Service = {
    Type = "exec";
    ExecStart = "some-bin";
  };

  Install = {
    WantedBy = [ "graphical-session.target" ];
  };
};
```
