remove references to "towards reproducibility" as that's not very
focused, and at that point readers will likely be familiar with the
concept such that they only need the reference, if anything

this fits the global outline we developed, and also makes the tutorial
more immediately visible - working with the Nix language is a core skill
we want to teach after all

rework the multi-machine example
...
- use the same Nixpkgs release to avoid massive downloads
- continue using `pkgs.nixosTest`; the new thing is completely undocumented
- use a shorthand module; `lib` is not used
- use an empty nginx config; commented-out code is confusing
- move explanation of the test script to the end; use imperative
- add instructions to run it

while section headings are good for linking, this is not very important

change "build task" to "derivation" in tutorial
"build task" invokes associations with pre-existing knowledge. As long as they are clearly explained, it is easier for beginners to pick up a new word than it is to add a new definition to an existing word that subtly differs from the other definitions it has. To that extent, "derivation" is probably a great word for Nix as, at least in this domain, it is very Nix specific and so, with clear definition, it should be easy to convey the idea to other folks that we are talking about something Nix specific.
