jade 700762d8b2 manual: fix a syntax error in redirects.js that made it not do anything
lol lmao

Let's put in a syntax checker in CI so we do not have to deal with this
nonsense ever again.

alois31 f047e4357b libstore/build: always enable seccomp filtering and no-new-privileges
Seccomp filtering and the no-new-privileges functionality improve the security
of the sandbox, and have been enabled by default for a long time. In
#265 it was decided that they
should be enabled unconditionally. Accordingly, remove the allow-new-privileges
(which had weird behavior anyway) and filter-syscall settings, and force the
security features on. Syscall filtering can still be enabled at build time to
support building on architectures libseccomp doesn't support.

fix an old lost direct (#9717)
this part must have been moved quite a while ago, but apparently so far
no one noticed

Valentin Gagarin 8fb477a6e7 add path based redirects
up to now, those were managed outside of this repo, which as
unsurprisingly a real hassle to deal with if one wanted to prevent URLs
from breaking when moving pages around. this change removes a large part
of the friction involved in moving content in the Nix manual.

possible next steps for further automation:
- check for content that moved and warn if it's not reachable from
  links that were valid prior to a change
- create redirect rules automatically based on this information

John Ericson 2ccc02515f Trailing commas in redirects
This avoids diff noise when more are added. Unlike with JSON, this is
allowed in JS.

Travis A. Everett 33d3889831 redirect old platform uninstall instruction links
Uninstall instructions were moved to their own page in #8267. The
overall section link was redirected in #8286, but platform-specific
links (which I give out frequently when I triage installer trouble)
weren't included.

Linus Heckemann 8e0946e8df Remove repeat and enforce-determinism options
These only functioned if a very narrow combination of conditions held:

- The result path does not yet exist (--check did not result in
  repeated builds), AND
- The result path is not available from any configured substituters, AND
- No remote builders that can build the path are available.

If any of these do not hold, a derivation would be built 0 or 1 times
regardless of the repeat option. Thus, remove it to avoid confusion.

Valentin Gagarin 548c904d40 optimize performance
remove loops and function calls, modify arrays in place

this makes the whole thing harder to read, and probably only
marginally faster.

Valentin Gagarin 59be1e500a generalize anchor redirects
renaming section headers and changing manually set `id`s will break URLs
in the wild.

this change allows keeping track of all changes to ensure backwards
compatibility.

Valentin Gagarin 499ed26508 manual: remove "Writing Nix Expressions" chapter
it is out of date, all over the place in level of detail, is really
about `nixpkgs`, and in general instructions should not be part of
a reference manual.

also:
- update redirects and internal links
- use "Nix language" consistently

Jan Tojnar 26d1877d6e doc: Add redirects for the DocBook manual
There are still many links to the old manual on the web and
having them end up on the Introduction page is a bad user experience.
