Jade Lovelace 748d8310fa Fix the pages in the manual for Lix
This doesn't comprehensively fix everything outdated in the manual, or
make the manual greatly better, but it does note down where at least
jade noticed it was wrong, and it does fix all the instances of
referencing Nix to conform to the style guide to the best of our
ability.

A lot of things have been commented out for being wrong, and there are
three types of FIXME introduced:

- FIXME(Lix): generically Lix needs to fix it
- FIXME(Qyriad): re https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/issues/215
- FIXME(meson): docs got outdated by meson changes and need rewriting

I did fix a bunch of it that I could, but there could certainly be
mistakes and this is definitely just an incremental improvement.

Upgrading Lix

FIXME(Lix): does Lix forward to the installer for nix upgrade-nix? Should it, if present? Lix should restart the daemon for you but currently doesn't (issue).

For instructions to switch to Lix, see https://lix.systems/install.

Lix may be upgraded by running nix upgrade-nix and then restarting the Nix daemon.

Restarting daemon on Linux

sudo systemctl daemon-reload && sudo systemctl restart nix-daemon

Restarting daemon on macOS

FIXME(Lix): Write instructions that, according to the beta installation guide do not sometimes crash macOS (?!)
