convert table to subsections
this form is much easier to maintain (also with minimal diffs), and allows for more details on each operator. this change a purely mechanical transformation, without changing any contents.

# Operators
|
||||
|
||||
The table below lists the operators in the Nix language, in
|
||||
order of precedence (from strongest to weakest binding).
|
||||
## Select
|
||||
|
||||
> *e* `.` *attrpath* \[ `or` *def* \]
|
||||
|
||||
Select attribute denoted by the attribute path *attrpath* from set *e*. (An attribute path is a dot-separated list of attribute names.) If the attribute doesn’t exist, return *def* if provided, otherwise abort evaluation.
|
||||
|
||||
Associativity: none

||||
|
||||
## Application

|
||||
> *e1* *e2*

## Has Attribute
|
||||
