integration testing: Fix attribute name for interactive testing 
According to

70ec3b9f54/nixos/doc/manual/development/running-nixos-tests-interactively.section.md (running-tests-interactively-sec-running-nixos-tests-interactively)

`driverInteractive` is needed, and just `driver` indeed just runs through
without giving me an interactive shell.

Johan Herland 7017fdbb00 Warn about combining paths and antiquotation too early in the tutorial 
This is the point in the tutorial where I started playing around with
paths and antiquotation in a `nix repl` session and got seriously
confused for a few minutes...

Johan Herland 07098339b2 Minor clarifying reword 
Without this, it almost sounds like you can bind a function to any other value.

Valentin Gagarin 961bb2766a be more precise what we cover here

Valentin Gagarin b3407ec6b6 move indented strings to the end 
they are the least significant combination of frequency of occurrence
and peculiarity, even if they're really handy.

but remember, the goal is to help people *understand* Nix language code,
not write it effectively.
