1dd3421615 docs: update installation instructions
These instructions were not up-to-date (they didn't mention
the different storage backends, and some variables were
tagged as optional while they were mandatory). With this
update, they should (hopefully) be more accurate! :)

I also added instructions if someone wants to run Nixery
outside of the container image (I found it convenient when
working on Nixery's code).

3939722063 style: Apply nixfmt to trivial Nix files
ALl the ones except for build-image.nix are considered trivial. On the
latter, nixfmt makes some useful changes but by-and-large it is not
ready for that code yet.

a3f6278913 docs: Add an "under-the-hood" page explaining the build process
This page describes the various steps that Nixery goes through when
"procuring" an image.

The intention is to give users some more visibility into what is going
on and to make it clear that this is not just an image storage
service.

2bef0ba240 feat(build): Build Nixery book and embed it into Nixery image
Executes the previously added mdBook on the previously added book
source to yield a directory that can be served by Nixery on its index
page.

This is one of those 'I <3 Nix' things due to how easy it is to do.

7c41a7a872 docs: Replace static page with mdBook site
Uses mdBook[1] to generate a documentation overview page instead of
the previous HTML site.

This makes it possible to add more elaborate documentation without
having to deal with finicky markup.
