nixos/documentation: deprecate docbook option docs

following the plan in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/189318#discussion_r961764451

also adds an activation script to print the warning during activation
instead of during build, otherwise folks using the new CLI that hides
build logs by default might never see the warning.

warning.

DocBook option documentation support will be removed in the
next release and CommonMark will become the default. DocBook
