Sergei Trofimovich 33fa5f3cd9 doc/manual/local.mk: fix 'make install DESTDIR=...' 
Install failure is observed when we try to install
into inplace location as non-root:

```
$ LANG=C make install DESTDIR=$PWD/__i__ V=1
RUST_LOG=warn mdbook build doc/manual -d /usr/share/doc/nix/manual
2021-08-28 13:29:58 [ERROR] (mdbook::utils): Error: Rendering failed
2021-08-28 13:29:58 [ERROR] (mdbook::utils):    Caused By: Unexpected error when constructing destination path
2021-08-28 13:29:58 [ERROR] (mdbook::utils):    Caused By: Permission denied (os error 13)
make: *** [doc/manual/local.mk:98: /usr/share/doc/nix/manual/index.html] Error 101
```

The change is to prefix paths with `$(DESTDIR)`.

$ curl -L https://nixos.org/nix/install | sh

Information on additional installation methods is available on the Nix download page.

Building And Developing

See our Hacking guide in our manual for instruction on how to build nix from source with nix-build or how to get a development environment.
