doc: builtins: use a definition list
...
This looks a lot better (and is also more semantically meaningful).
Since this list is generated in a Nix expression, I don't think using
HTML here is going to be the thing that puts people off modifying this
part of the documentation!

Fix macOS sandbox build
...
Since c4c3c15c19#4251 ) building Nix for
macOS with sandboxing fails:
```
getting status of /nix/var/nix/profiles/per-user/root/channels/nixpkgs: Operation not permitted
```
This happens, because `EvalSettings::getDefaultNixPath` tries to access
paths outside the sandbox. Since the state-dir is not required for
doc generation, it is set to the dummy folder. This needs to be done
for all nix invocations during doc generation, as
`EvalSettings::getDefaultNixPath` is called unconditionally.

style.css: Remove
...
This file is licensed under the GPL. Originally, Nix was also
GPL-licensed so that was fine. However, we later changed the license
to the LGPL but missed the fact that style.css has an incompatible
license.
Since the Nix manual at nixos.org uses its own styling, we can remove
this file.
Fixes #3392 .

Don't hardcode docbook XSL namespace URL
...
Docbook XSL got updated to version 1.79.1 in NixOS/nixpkgs@fb893a8 and
we're still referring to the hardcoded previous version.
So instead of just updating this to 1.79.1 we're going to use "current"
in the hope that this won't happen again.
I have tested this by building the manual under Nix(OS) but I haven't
tested this in a non-Nix environment, so I'm not sure whether this could
have implications.
