Comment out the architecture section
This needs more review and probably should be a separate book.

Adam Joseph a5be5e0120 doc/manual: define {local,remote} store, binary cache, substituter
Nix veterans intuitively know what the following terms mean.  They are
used in several places in the nix documentation, but never defined:

- local store
- remote store
- binary cache
- substituter

In particular, I found the last two terms to be confusingly similar.
Let's give definitions for them.

Valentin Gagarin a28d6878b2 concept map: put closure as it is in the chapter
this is not as compact any more, but it more closely resembles the
chapter structure, and clearly shows that the closure property is the
key idea on which most of Nix operates.
