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.

c9d66a7fff cross-compilation.chapter.md: give examples of all depFooBar cases
This commit describes the "->" notation for dependency types in
greater detail, and uses g++ to provide examples of all six cases
(although the host->target and target->target examples are a bit
artificial).

It also adds three more rows to the table for the "->*" dependency
types for non-compiler-like packages; these dependency types were
already present in the documentation but the "*" was not really
explained.

Lastly, this commit adds a hyperlink to the table from the place where
it is mentioned in the "specifying dependencies" chapter.

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.

doc/cross-compilation: Remove confusing re-explanation
See https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/106950

> They way it's worded says buildInputs are for build-time and nativeBuildInputs are for run-time. The other documentation leads me to believe it is the other way around.
