- Move contents of README.md from nixos/modules/installer/tools/manpages/ to nixos/doc/manual/contributing-to-this-manual.chapter.md. - Don't mention DocBook as its obsolete and too specific. - Rename derivation attribute name of configuration.nix(5) manual page, both on the `contributing-to-this-manual.chapter.md`, and in other places.
