6cfbf403ca doc: Reviews partitioning instructions to use parted.
The tests in <nixos/tests/installer.nix> are using `parted`, so they are
bound to be better tested than `fdisk`.

This is brought on by a couple issues, plus reports on IRC that the
`fdisk` instructions didn't work as expected.

 * #39354
 * #46309
 * #39942
 * #45478

Care was taken so that the other documented steps did not need changes.

In all this kerfufle, a slight re-organization of the Chapter has been
made, allowing better deep linking.

8192fcd0fd doc: installing-usb make macOS note a note.
While it seemingly brings more attention to the macOS notes with the
default docbook template, it better represents which parts of the
section are about macOS, and which parts are simply in the flow of the
text; otherwise the last paragraph may be lost into the details for
macOS.

f309440ee3 doc: Update section about imperative containers
Nix commands inside the container have been broken since 18.03,
and no fix is yet in sight.  Lets remove from the documentation
that this is a usecase that we support, as it doesn't seem
likely that this will be fixed before 18.09 either.

See #40355

fe744d3fb1 nixos: doc: rename manual to manualHTML, cleanup references
Because when I see "config.system.build.manual.manual" after I forgot
what it means I ask "Why do I need that second `.manual` there again?".
Doesn't happen with `config.system.build.manual.manualHTML`.

1146ae1a71 release-notes/19.03: add release notes for nix 2.0 requirement bump
This is taken from the 18.09 change, which was reverted on release-18.09
but not master. The now-false 18.09 release notes were just removed from
master in 29854e2426, but since the
underlying change is still there, release notes for 19.03 are warranted.
This commit takes the now-reverted release notes and reuses them for
that.

nixos: Document option description changes
This adds a release notes entry to make users (and especially
developers) aware so they no longer need to use </para><para> in option
descriptions as this is now done automatically on every two consecutive
newlines.

More details can be found in the commit message of f865d0feab.

nixos: Split paras by \n\n in option descriptions
What annoyed me for a long time was the fact, that in order to break
into a new paragraph, you need to insert </para><para> in the
description attribute of an option.

Now we will automatically create <para/> elements for every block that
is separated by two consecutive newlines.

I first tried to do this within options-to-docbook.xsl, but it turns
out[1] that this isn't directly possible with XSLT 1.0, so I added
another XSLT file that postprocesses the option descriptions that are
now enclosed in <nixos:option-description/> by options-to-docbook.xsl.

The splitting itself is a bit more involved, because we can't simply
split on every \n\n because we'd also split text nodes of elements, for
example:

  <screen><![CDATA[

    one line

    another one

  ]]></screen>

This would create one <para/> element for "one line" and another for
"another line", which we obviously don't want because <screen/> is used
to display verbatim contents of what a user is seeing on the screen.

So what we do instead is splitting *only* the top-level text nodes
within the outermost <para/> and leave all elements as-is. If there are
more than one <para/> elements at the top-level, we simply don't process
it at all, because the description then already contains </para><para>.

cb1ca42009 nixos/doc: add instructions for installation behind a proxy (#45854)
The instructions to install nixos behind a proxy were not clear. While
one could guess that setting http_proxy variables can get the install
rolling, one could end up with an installed system where the proxy
settings for the nix-daemon are not configured.

This commit updates the documentation with

1. steps to install behind a proxy

2. configure the global proxy settings so that nix-daemon can access
internet.

3. Pointers to use nesting.clone in case one has to use different proxy
settings on different networks.
