extract reference documentation on remote builds (#9526)
- move all reference documentation to the `builders` configuration setting
- reword documentation on machine specification, add examples
- disable showing the default value, as it rendered as `@/dummy/machines`, which is wrong
- highlight the examples
- link to the configuration docs for distributed builds
- builder -> build machine

ce19338f9f update glossary entry on store types
the interesting information is on the proper pages, and is now presented
a bit more prominently.

the paragraph was a bit confusing to read, also because an anchor link
to an inline definition was in the middle of the sentence. "local store"
now has its own glossary entry.

Add a note about lists values.md
There's probably more that can be said, but I thought it might be helpful to put something here about how to access elements of a list for folks coming from more or less any other programming language. If this is rarely used, it might be nice to add to the documentation something about why it's rarely used.

Fix link to derivation in string interpolation doc
The reference link definition for it pointing to the glossary was
removed, so it is currently not displayed as a link.

60045f9c96 add clickable anchor links
how the different invocations relate to each other seems be
confusing, which is relatable because one has to wire it up in your head
while reading. an explicit reference should make it unambiguous and
easier to notice due to links being highlighted.

This is a game-changer when developing, it shouldn't just be hidden amongst a list of more advanced variables.

f1b4663805 Disallow store path names that are . or .. (plus opt. -)
As discussed in the maintainer meeting on 2024-01-29.

Mainly this is to avoid a situation where the name is parsed and
treated as a file name, mostly to protect users.
.-* and ..-* are also considered invalid because they might strip
on that separator to remove versions. Doesn't really work, but that's
what we decided, and I won't argue with it, because .-* probably
doesn't seem to have a real world application anyway.
We do still permit a 1-character name that's just "-", which still
poses a similar risk in such a situation. We can't start disallowing
trailing -, because a non-zero number of users will need it and we've
seen how annoying and painful such a change is.

What matters most is preventing a situation where . or .. can be
injected, and to just get this done.
