Valentin Gagarin c0ccc78d3a reduce to minimal proposal
based on https://github.com/NixOS/nix.dev/issues/275#issuecomment-1227572104

@edolstra proposed using "Nixpkgs" as a proper name

- this is not pronouncible from just reading it, but at least it's brief
  and unambiguous
  -> added pronounciation

@uningan pointed out Nix is more than just a package manager, but also
a built system.

- this is true, and probably we don't have to reflect that in the proper
  name
- also don't have to change anything if we keep Nix
  -> back to just Nix

multiple threads of discussion diverged into very broad proposals to
rename things, but the focus here should be on the smallest possible change to
improve clarity and get consensus on something at all.
  -> removed additional proposals, which are tangential
