6b5fcc7c10 doc/overlays: mention that final/prev are used
These are honestly the more common pair in new code and it is pretty
silly to not mention them.

e8e668c587 doc: fix incorrect counter for MPI options

fcc95ff817 treewide: Fix all Nix ASTs in all markdown files
This allows for correct highlighting and maybe future automatic
formatting. The AST was verified to work with nixfmt only.

97b0ae26f7 doc: avoid 'simply' (#266434)
While the word 'simply' is usually added to encourage readers, it often has the
opposite effect and may even appear condescending, especially when the reader
runs into trouble trying to apply the suggestions from the documentation. It is
almost always an improvement to simply drop the word from the sentence.

(there are more possible improvements like this, we can apply those in separate
PRs)

b414f942e0 doc: link, instead of just mentioning, Nix manual (#255126)
Instead of just telling the reader to go find the relevant section of the Nix
manual, let's just link to it. Yay hypertext!

e12f4db556 treewide: Fix unsafe concatenation of $LD_LIBRARY_PATH, round 2
Naive concatenation of $LD_LIBRARY_PATH can result in an empty
colon-delimited segment; this tells glibc to load libraries from the
current directory, which is definitely wrong, and may be a security
vulnerability if the current directory is untrusted.  (See #67234, for
example.)  Fix this throughout the tree.

Followup to #76804.  Fixes #144646.

6ecc641d08 doc: prepare for commonmark
We are still using Pandoc’s Markdown parser, which differs from CommonMark spec slightly.

Notably:
- Line breaks in lists behave differently.
- Admonitions do not support the simpler syntax https://github.com/jgm/commonmark-hs/issues/75
- The auto_identifiers uses a different algorithm – I made the previous ones explicit.
- Languages (classes) of code blocks cannot contain whitespace so we have to use “pycon” alias instead of Python “console” as GitHub’s linguist

While at it, I also fixed the following issues:
- ShellSesssion was used
- Removed some pointless docbook tags.
