nixos/nix-gc, nixos/auto-upgrade: Minor documentation fixes.
The gc documentation had some artifacts (presumably being copied from
autoupgrade) and the autoupgrade docs had a typo

Add a randomized delay before each garbage collection.
The delay will be chosen between zero and this value.
This value must be a time span in the format specified by

Takes a boolean argument. If true, the time when the service
unit was last triggered is stored on disk. When the timer is
activated, the service unit is triggered immediately if it
would have been triggered at least once during the time when
the timer was inactive. Such triggering is nonetheless
subject to the delay imposed by RandomizedDelaySec=. This is
useful to catch up on missed runs of the service when the
system was powered down.
