09eb7f1ef6 do not show configuration override flags for each command
this removes a lot of noise from the web search, which precludes finding
the actual documentation.

some configuration settings have enough documentation to warrant
individual pages, so the alternative of including full setting
documentation in each command page doesn't make much sense here.

this change technically means that the command line flags to override
settings are "invisible", and not exported as JSON. this may or may not
be desirable. a more explicit approach would be adding a `hidden` field
to the flag's JSON output, but would also require adjusting
post-processing of that JSON for manual rendering.

b7edc2099f Improve derivation parsing
- Don't assert: Derivation ATerms are not necessarily produced by Nix,
  and parsers should always throw graceful errors

- Improve error message from `static void except(..)`, shows both what
  we expected and what we actually got.

The intention is that we backport it, and then hopefully a few people
might get slightly better errors if they try out new experimental drv
files (for RFC 92) with an old version of Nix.

02c2679f0e dedent common options listing; one sentence per line
this is a pure reformatting, contents were not changed

one sentence per line makes reviewing diffs and making suggestions much
more convenient. the indentation was an artifat of the DocBook
migration.

880d9cabed Test and begin documentation of the ATerm format for derivations
Wanted to do this before the last dynamic derivations PR when I
introduce a variation, to make sure I wasn't changing the old version by
mistake.

Solves 1/3 of the infinite recursion at unknown location meme.
See #8879 for ensuring we always have a trace (for stack overflows)
We might want to re-add this for finding missing location info
*while hacking on that problem only*.

3384f70a3d nixpkgsLibTests: Only test our Nix
Interface has changed upstream.
It *should* be fine to test 23.05's other Nix versions as those
*should* succeed, but that's not the case and it's obfuscating
our terrible CI setup's log.
