This documents that all installables in the nix3 commands, in their
--file/-f form accept an extended syntax for the file argument,
which is the same as it is for nix-build and friends, some of which were
well known in their nix-build forms (e.g. `nix-build '<nixpkgs>' -A hello)
but are not well known in their nix3 forms (people rarely know that you
can `nix build -f '<nixpkgs>' firefox`).
Like the old CLI syntax, as documented in [1], file arguments also
accept https:// tarball URLs, `flake:` prefixed flakerefs, and the
cursed `channel:` prefixed hardened URLs.

This documents the fact that nix-build, nix-env, nix-instantiate, and
nix-shell accept an extended syntax for their file arguments, including
some well-known (but not well documented) aspects, like being able to
specify `<nixpkgs>`, but also https:// tarball URLs, `flake:` prefixed
flakerefs, and the cursed `channel:` prefixed hardcoded URLs
Same thing for the new CLI incoming :)

This breaks downstreams linking to us on purpose to make sure that if
someone is linking to Lix they're doing it on purpose and crucially not
mixing up Nix and Lix versions in compatibility code.
We still need to fix the internal includes to follow the same schema so
we can drop the single-level include system entirely. However, this
requires a little more effort.
This adds pkg-config for libfetchers and config.h.
Migration path:
expr.hh -> lix/libexpr/expr.hh
nix/config.h -> lix/config.h
To apply this migration automatically, remove all `<nix/>` from
includes, so: `#include <nix/expr.hh>` -> `#include <expr.hh>`. Then,
the correct paths will be resolved from the tangled mess, and the
clang-tidy automated fix will work.
Then run the following for out of tree projects:
```
lix_root=$HOME/lix
(cd $lix_root/clang-tidy && nix develop -c 'meson setup build && ninja -C build')
run-clang-tidy -checks='-*,lix-fixincludes' -load=$lix_root/clang-tidy/build/liblix-clang-tidy.so -p build/ -fix src
```

Since we're skipping Meson's dependency tracking, for the
internal-api-docs custom target, we should just consider it a phony
target and build it on every request.

this should make it easier to spot future instances of entries being
duplicated by accident. also add a pre-commit check to remain sorted
