Was confused why `make html` didn't work while working on #9032, but
then I realized that after this section was written, the target was
renamed to `manual-html` in 6910f5dcb6.
Before they were an "ad-hoc" header with bold and a colon; now they are
a proper subheader.
For the man pages, this doesn't make much of a difference, but it will
help more on for the HTML manual, where things can be restyled. Again,
good separation of content vs presentation.
Behavior change:
Before we only showed uption if the command-specific options were
non-empty. But that is somewhat odd since we also show common options.
Now, we do everything based on the union of both sorts of options (with
hidden-categories filtered, as before).
Implementation change:
The JSON dumping once again includes all options; the filtering of
hidden categories is done in the Nix instead. This is better separation
of "content" vs "presentation", and prepare the way for the HTML manual
vs manpages / `--help` doing different things.
We will soon add a new implemenation so the one for NARs in `archive.cc`
isn't the only one.

Support using nix flakes in paths with spaces or abitrary unicode characters.
This introduces the convention that the path part of the URL should be
percent-encoded when dealing with `path:` urls and not when using
filepaths (following the convention of firefox).

there are currently multiple places with installation instructions that
all have to be updated when a change to any of them is accepted.
this reduces the number of places by one, and directs beginners to the
maintained and curated resource for Nix learning materials.
It was disabled in c6953d1ff6 because
a recent Nixpkgs bump brought in a new systemd which changed how
systemd-nspawn worked.
As far as I can tell, the issue was caused by this upstream systemd
commit:
b71a0192c0
Bind-mounting the host's `/sys` and `/proc` into the container's
`/run/host/{sys,proc}` fixes the issue and allows the test to succeed.
Our FreeBSD headers have `pthread_getattr_np`, but we get a link-time
error that is missing. The good news is that there is another similar
function which does exist, and the upstream project elsewhere does just
the [fallback code] we need.
As the fallback code indicates, the two functions are not identical
however as the other one needs explicit initialization. NetBSD supports
both in fact, and its [manpage] is therefore a good
resource on what the differences are.
[fallback code]: 07a6d0ee88/os_dep.c (L1266-L1272)
