Make everything be in the form "while ..." (most things were already),
and in particular *don't* use other propositions that must go after or
before specific "while ..." clauses to make sense.
When debugging nix expressions the outermost trace tends to be more useful
than the innermost. It is therefore printed last to save developers from
scrolling.
We used to set enforceDeterminism to true in the settings (by default)
and thus did send a non-zero value over the wire. The value should
probably be ignored as it should only matter if nrRounds is non-zero
as well.
Having the old code here where the value is expected to be zero only
works with the same version of Nix where we are sending zero. We
should always test this against older Nix versions being client or
server as otherwise upgrade in larger networks might be a pain.

this avoids incorrect rendering on the man pages, since `lowdown`
neither parses the anchor syntax nor HTML.
this should rather be fixed in lowdown, as adding more anchors
would otherwise produce ever more noise and error-prone repetition.
* docs: Use secret-key-files when demonstrating post-build-hooks
The docs used to recommend calling `nix store sign` in a post-build
hook, but on more recent versions of nix, this results in unsigned
store paths being copied into binary caches. See
https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/6960 for details.
Instead, use the `secret-key-files` config option, which signs all
locally-built derivations with the private key.

These only functioned if a very narrow combination of conditions held:
- The result path does not yet exist (--check did not result in
repeated builds), AND
- The result path is not available from any configured substituters, AND
- No remote builders that can build the path are available.
If any of these do not hold, a derivation would be built 0 or 1 times
regardless of the repeat option. Thus, remove it to avoid confusion.
being too specific about it requires more maintenance (or otherwise
produced more confusion and churn), since these points of contact change
over time.
