Joachim Breitner e2af11ce07 Manpages: Do not refer to nixpkgs-channels 
Unless I am misinformed, using the `nixpkgs` repository directly is now
preferred?

Remove -j option from simple-build-testing 
By default Nix/NixOS already set a reasonable default `max-jobs = auto`
so we don't need to mention it in this tutorial.
The option is still documented in other parts of the documentation
if users ever stumble over this.

Julien Tanguy ae244af242 docs: Use the explicit ref for fetchGit with a tag 
With the merge of #2582, the syntax "tags/1.9" for refs does not work
anymore.
However, the new syntax "refs/tags/1.9" seems to support annotated tags,
such as "refs/tags/2.0".

Closes #2385.

doc: clarify that optional attrs in a function argument will be ignored unless specified 
In `args@{ a ? 1 }: /* ... */` the value `a` won't be a part of `args`
unless it's specified when calling the function, the default value will
be ignored in this case.

My personal point of view is that this behavior is a matter of taste, at
least I was pretty sure that unmatched arguments will be a part of
`args@` while debugging some Nix code last week.

I decided to add a warning to the docs which hopefully reduces the
confusion of further Nix developers who thought the same about `args@`.

Daniel Schaefer 3f192ac80c Add builtins.hashFile 
For text files it is possible to do it like so:
`builtins.hashString "sha256" (builtins.readFile /tmp/a)`
but that doesn't work for binary files.

With builtins.hashFile any kind of file can be conveniently hashed.

Add isPath primop 
this is added for completeness' sake since all the other possible

Benjamin Hipple 65453e2d77 Docs: update fixed output hashes 
`fetchurl` will now throw if given an `md5`, and the hashes have generally
been upgraded to avoid it and use `sha256` as a default. This updates the
documentation examples in the manual accordingly.
