nixpkgs-docs: when to prefer passthru.tests over installCheckPhase
And mention you can have either lightweight 'package' or
more heavyweight 'NixOS' (module) tests.

This was suggested at
https://github.com/ryantm/nixpkgs-update/issues/260#issuecomment-821287971
and discussed further at

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.
