Add link to current NixOS Wiki and fix awkward wording ( #149 )
...
Currently, "1.2. Rationale for this series" starts out with the following sentence, which seems a bit odd:
The Nix, Nixpkgs, and NixOS manuals; and wiki are excellent resources for explaining how Nix/NixOS works, how you can use it, and the number of cool things being done with it.
Turns out 4d0c1d2
removes an item followed by a semicolon. This commit fixes the issue by removing the semicolon and also adds a link to the current NixOS Wiki.

Make command output coherent with its text description.
...
Command 'nix-store -q --referrers `which hello`' should list two
environments as described in the text: "Two environments were listed..."
Add a second environment and a manifest to the command output (hashes
were taken from the command output when trying to replay pill 3 steps on
a local system).

Re-word "modified setup.sh" in pill 10
...
Since `setup.sh` is a new addition, it makes more sense to not use the
word "modified", as it did not exist before :).

Change install arg from man
to man-db
...
The install command `nix-env -i man` does not work as `man` is the
*attribute name* meanwhile the command expects the derivation name which
is `man-db`. If using the attribute name then the command should use the
`{--attr | -A}` option and pass the attribute path, e.g.:
`nix-env -iA nixpkgs.man`.

Make clear what is conventional vs mandatory for Darwin
...
We indeed don't want to use jargon like "stdenv" too soon, but we also don't want to imply Nix is less flexible than it is.

remove stdenv references
...
`stdenv` has not yet been mentioned in this tutorial and the target audience (people new to nix) will not know what it is. It shouldn't be mentioned until it is properly described (as it is in pill 19).
