Expand the testing section of the hacking docs
...
- Make it clear what the different kind of tests are, where they live
and how they can be ran
- Ask people to primarily write unit tests

fix: builtins.toFile adds path to allowedPaths
...
The produced path is then allowed be imported or utilized elsewhere:
```
assert (43 == import (builtins.toFile "source" "43")); "good"
```
This will still fail on write-only stores.

nix repl: make symlinks with the :bl command
...
Requested by ppepino on the Matrix:
https://matrix.to/#/!KqkRjyTEzAGRiZFBYT:nixos.org/$Tb32BS3rVE2BSULAX4sPm0h6CDewX2hClOTGzTC7gwM?via=nixos.org&via=matrix.org&via=nixos.dev
This adds a new command, :bl, which works like :b but also creates
a GC root symlink to the various derivation outputs.
ckie@cookiemonster ~/git/nix -> ./outputs/out/bin/nix repl
Welcome to Nix 2.6.0. Type :? for help.
nix-repl> :l <nixpkgs>
Added 16118 variables.
nix-repl> :b runCommand "hello" {} "echo hi > $out"
This derivation produced the following outputs:
./repl-result-out -> /nix/store/kidqq2acdpi05c4a9mlbg2baikmzik44-hello
[1 built, 0.0 MiB DL]

doc: Add detailed uninstall section for macOS

The multi-user installation on macOS, which is now the only option, has
gotten complicated enough that it discourages some users from checking
Nix out for fear of being left with a "dirty" system. Detailed
uninstallation instructions should make this less of an issue.
