b8a1ff98c1 use HTML anchors for config parameters 
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.

f7ab93b068 manual: build action -> build task 
after discussing this with multiple people, I'm convinced that "build
task" is more precise: a derivation is not an action, but inert until it
is built. also it's easier to pronounce.

proposal: use "build task" for the generic concept "description of how
to derive new files from the contents of existing files". then it will
be easier to distinguish what we mean by "derivation" (a specific data
structure and Nix language value type) and "store derivation" (a
serialisation of a derivation into a file in the Nix store).

1ec8810687 Explain how Nix handles antiquotation of paths 
Specifically, explain why Nix does not _re_evaluate paths during a
`nix repl` session. This is a thing that bit me while playing around
with paths and antiquotation in `nix repl` while reading the Nix
language tutorial at https://nix.dev/tutorials/nix-language.

84bdb0e3ad address review feedback 
Mainly:
- Try to triangulate between narrative that framed this as
  a new/easy process and the need for a reference that will
  not quickly grow stale.
- Fix a ~continuity issue where the text was talking about
  "your Cachix cache" before saying that you'd need to make
  a Cachix cache to enable the installer tests.
- Adopt suggestion on titling, and nest subtitles in the
  installer test section.

59be1e500a generalize anchor redirects 
renaming section headers and changing manually set `id`s will break URLs
in the wild.

this change allows keeping track of all changes to ensure backwards
compatibility.
