Upstream supports php 8.0/8.1 for the 3.3.0 release. The upgrade to 8.2
caused a type mismatch in carbon.

the conversion procedure is simple:
- find all things that look like options, ie calls to either `mkOption`
or `lib.mkOption` that take an attrset. remember the attrset as the
option
- for all options, find a `description` attribute who's value is not a
call to `mdDoc` or `lib.mdDoc`
- textually convert the entire value of the attribute to MD with a few
simple regexes (the set from mdize-module.sh)
- if the change produced a change in the manual output, discard
- if the change kept the manual unchanged, add some text to the
description to make sure we've actually found an option. if the
manual changes this time, keep the converted description
this procedure converts 80% of nixos options to markdown. around 2000
options remain to be inspected, but most of those fail the "does not
change the manual output check": currently the MD conversion process
does not faithfully convert docbook tags like <code> and <package>, so
any option using such tags will not be converted at all.
Since 3edde6562e, we can no longer use
aliases inside the test framework. This has the implication that we can
no longer use aliases in any NixOS modules used by the test framework as
well (which is good), but does mean we need to clean up any instances
where this is the case.
