Found using https://github.com/serokell/xrefcheck, which unfortunately
can't trivially be enforced in CI because we also have the manual markdown
files that need post-processing to be valid
* doc: add stdenv passthru chapter
Broad strokes:
- create the chapter
- move existing stdenv passthru coverage into it
- move out-of-place coverage of passthru.tests from the stdenv meta chapter into it
- (try to) apply 1-sentence-per-line to text I've touched
- add legacy anchors for everything moved
- update existing links to the new anchors
- add tentative motivating text
- make nixpkgs-internal links relative/branchless
razor: if it is only ever needed by contributors, which is likely if links
refer to the latest revision of the source code, then it's for
the contributor guide

* doc: improve fetchers overview, deduplicate readme content
* Improve caveat explanation and some fetchurl content
* move out consumer docs on source fetching
* move note on mirror URLs to the relevant section
this may be better suited for the `fetchurl` reference, but it's probably better to
just render that information into the manual. for now, because
- contributor documentation encourages mirrors
- we can expect contributors to dig into the source
- linking source files is trivial in in-code documentation
we leave it there.
* move instructions for updating hashes to the manual
* Add more clarity on text, reorganise source hash methods

GitHub supported special markdown syntax for emphasising blocks for some
time. This was however a beta feature, and still is, so it's subject to
changes.
Recently such a change happened: The syntax is different now.

Nixpkgs is not your personal depot. Add a light decision-making
framework to help decide what fits in the project or not.
