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it is out of date, all over the place in level of detail, is really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 7708a34a51 doc: Add anchors to long lists
Added using the following sed scripts:

- For command-ref/opt-common.md:

    s~- `(--?)([^`]+)`~- [`\1\2`]{#opt-\2}~g

- For expressions/builtin-constants.md:

    s~- `(builtins\.?)([^`]+)`~- [`\1\2`]{#builtins-\2}~g

- For expressions/advanced-attributes.md

    s~^  - `([^`]+)`~  - [`\1`]{#adv-attr-\1}~g

  and manually adjusted outputHashAlgo & outputHashMode.

- For glossary.md

    s~^  - (`([^`]+)`|(.+)) ?\\~  - [\1]{#gloss-\2\3}\\~g;
    s~(gloss-\w+) ~\1-~g

  and manually adjusted anchors for Nix expression, user environment, NAR, ∅ and ε.

- For command-ref/env-common.md

    s~^  - `([^`]+)`~  - [`\1`]{#env-\1}~g'

docs: document set theory symbols
These symbols confused me so I wanted to gloss them to help future users. You can see the context here: https://discourse.nixos.org/t/flakes-what-does-mean-big-bundle-of-questions

regnat 31313d1401 Replace the trailing markdown spaces by a backslash
They are equivalent according to
<https://spec.commonmark.org/0.29/#hard-line-breaks>,
and the trailing spaces tend to be a pain (because the make git
complain, editors tend to want to remove them − the `.editorconfig`
actually specifies that − etc..).
