51a12b38bd Fix stackoverflow during doc generation
On some systems, previous usage of `match` may cause a stackoverflow
(presumably due to the large size of the match result). Avoid this by
(ab)using `replaceStrings` to test for containment without using
regexes, thereby avoiding the issue. The causal configuration seems to
be the stack size hard limit, which e.g. Amazon Linux sets, whereas most
Linux distros leave unlimited.

Match the fn name to similar fn in nixpkgs.lib, but different
implementation that does not use `match`. This impl gives perhaps
unexpected results when the needle is `""`, but the scope of this is
narrow and that case is a bit odd anyway.

This makes for some duplication-of-work as we do a different
`replaceStrings` if this one is true, but this only runs during doc
generation at build time so has no runtime impact.

See https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/11085 for details.

docs: split types from syntax (#11013)
move together all syntactic and semantic information into one
page, and add a page on data types, which in turn links to the syntax and
semantics.

also split out the note on scoping rules into its own page.

doc: fix directory definition in nix-archive.md (#10997)
* doc: fix `directory` definition in nix-archive.md

Before the change the document implied that directory of a single entry
contained entry:

    "type" "directory" "type" directory" "entry" ...

After the change document should expand into:

   "type" "directory" "entry" ...

149d8eb8aa Stop vendoring toml11
We don't apply any patches to it, and vendoring it locks users into
bugs (it hasn't been updated since its introduction in late 2021).

Closes https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/issues/164

This Python code snippet depended on Python 2 which has been marked as insecure in 24.05.

I modernized the example so new users will not be surprised upon copying and pasting the snippet for exploration.

into errors like:

error: expected flake output attribute 'hydraJobs' to be a derivation or
