placed in a subsection of the binary install, the instructions are hard
to find. putting them in a separate page that is shown in the table of
contents should make it easier for users to find what they need when
they need it.
Before #5150 the copy-to-store phase of the install was idempotent,
but the recursive cp isn't. This is probably baiting a few people
into trying corrective installs that will fail.
The uninstall instructions used to accidentally remove the nix-darwin
LaunchDaemon, this was dropped. However, the original intent was to
remove the Store volume mounting LaunchDaemon.
Clarify that `/nix` being present after the uninstall is normal and it
will only disappear after a reboot.

The multi-user installation on macOS, which is now the only option, has
gotten complicated enough that it discourages some users from checking
Nix out for fear of being left with a "dirty" system. Detailed
uninstallation instructions should make this less of an issue.
