This is needed to avoid this
https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/13774 when we go back to

manual: Contributing -> Development, Hacking -> Building (#9014)
* manual: Contributing -> Development, Hacking -> Building

what's currently called "hacking" are really instructions for setting up
a development environment and compiling from source. we have
a contribution guide in the repo (which rightly focuses on GitHub
workflows), and the material in the manual is more about working
on the code itself.

since we'd otherwise have three headings that amount to "Building Nix",
this change also moves the "classic Nix" instructions to the top.

we may want to reorganise this in the future, and bring
contributor-oriented information closer to the code, but for now let's
stick to more accurate names to ease navigation.

043135a848 Document file system object content addressing
In addition:

- Take the opportunity to add a bunch more missing hyperlinks, too.

- Remove some glossary entries that are now subsumed by dedicated pages.
  We used to not be able to do this without breaking link fragments, but
  now we can, so pick up where we left off.
