7355a48b1a flake.lock: Update Nixpkgs to fix static build
The problem was since switching to use libgit2, we had a package in our
closure (`http-parser`) that was always trying to build as a shared
object.

Underlying Nixpkgs PR (a 23.05 backport)
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/271202

Flake lock file updates:

• Updated input 'nixpkgs':

Move unit tests to separate directories, and document

91b6833686 Move tests to separate directories, and document
Today, with the tests inside a `tests` intermingled with the
corresponding library's source code, we have a few problems:

- We have to be careful that wildcards don't end up with tests being
  built as part of Nix proper, or test headers being installed as part
  of Nix proper.

- Tests in libraries but not executables is not right:

  - It means each executable runs the previous unit tests again, because
    it needs the libraries.

  - It doesn't work right on Windows, which doesn't want you to load a
    DLL just for the side global variable . It could be made to work
    with the dlopen equivalent, but that's gross!

This reorg solves these problems.

There is a remaining problem which is that sibbling headers (like
`hash.hh` the test header vs `hash.hh` the main `libnixutil` header) end
up shadowing each other. This PR doesn't solve that. That is left as
future work for a future PR.

4781e7fa70 Document each store type on its own page
This makes for more useful manual table of contents, that displays the
information at a glance.

The `nix help-stores` command is kept as-is, even though it will show up
in the manual with the same information as these pages due to the way it
is written as a "`--help`-style" command. Deciding what to do with that
command is left for a later PR.

This change also lists all store types at the top of the respective overview page.

44d21f6ef9 keep generated documentation in a separate directory
- helps navigating the code as it highlights which files are generated
- makes it less error prone when working incrementally
  (although this should be just fixed by building out of tree)
