Doron Behar 924a07dc22 nixos/doc: Improve documentation of documentation
- Move contents of README.md from
  nixos/modules/installer/tools/manpages/ to
  nixos/doc/manual/contributing-to-this-manual.chapter.md.
- Don't mention DocBook as its obsolete and too specific.
- Rename derivation attribute name of configuration.nix(5) manual page,
  both on the `contributing-to-this-manual.chapter.md`, and in other
  places.

With this package, you get the commands like nixos-generate-config and
nixos-install that you would otherwise only find on a NixOS system, such
as an installer image.
This way, you can install NixOS using a machine that only has Nix.
