NixOS releases are also `lib` releases :)
The release notes were collected from looking at the `git diff` since
22.11.
Since the NixOS and Nixpkgs manuals are rendered separately, I'm linking
to the "unstable" link to make sure the links definitely work on the time of
release. The "stable" link might take some time to become available
The Nixpkgs documentation on the linux kernel builders focused on
using and extending kernels that were already packaged, but never
mentioned that it's possible to also build a kernel almost "from
scratch".
The NixOS documentation went a bit deeper on manual linux kernel
configs, but that information wasn't particularly NixOS-specific.
This commit consolidates the information related to building the
kernel on Nixpkgs's documentation, while keeping any additional
NixOS-specific information on NixOS's documentation.
An additional README.md was created for contributor-facing
documentation.

Docker CE 20.10 seems to stop receiving security updates and bug fixes
after December 10, 2023[1].

There is public commitment for longer maintenance and then it seems
risky to default to it during 23.11 life-cycle.

In my earlier commit
manual: Don't suggest exposing VM port to local network.
I made a side change titled
Use `127.0.0.1` also on the VM side, otherwise connections to
services that, in the VM, bind to `127.0.0.1` only
(doing the safe approach) do not work.
Unfortunately, that was wrong:
QEMU inside the VM always communicates via the virtualised
Ethernet interface, not via the VM's loopback interface.
So trying to connect to `127.0.0.1` on the VM's side cannot work.
The setting
QEMU_NET_OPTS="hostfwd=tcp::2222-:22"
caused the VM's port 2222 to be advertised on the host as
`0.0.0.0:2222`, thus anybody in the local network of the host
could SSH into the VM.
Instead, port-forward to localhost only.
Use `127.0.0.1` also on the VM side, otherwise connections to
services that, in the VM, bind to `127.0.0.1` only
(doing the safe approach) do not work.
See e.g. https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/100192
for more info why localhost listening is the best default.
While the word 'simply' is usually added to encourage readers, it often has the
opposite effect and may even appear condescending, especially when the reader
runs into trouble trying to apply the suggestions from the documentation. It is
almost always an improvement to simply drop the word from the sentence.
(there are more possible improvements like this, we can apply those in separate
PRs)
Based on #257780, separated since it introduces significant changes.
bpycv: update passthru.tests.render
blender-with-packages: deprecated
it is still backwards compatible, but no longer preferred.
[Motivation](NixOS#257817 (comment))
`extraLayouts` was missed in #259891, so moving it to the other xkb
options with this PR.

Related to #262907 (Django3 removal from nixpkgs).
This package already required an unreasonable amount of maintenance
regularly for a such small leaf-package. It has a few highly outdated
dependencies (e.g. flask 1, jinja2 2.11, sqlalchemy 1.3).
After at least each Python package-set update one had to fix up a lot of
dependencies to fix the package itself, so it was only useful on stable
branches. And having so much outdated software in a security-sensitive
piece of software seems questionable.
Finally, globin and I won't be available for maintaining this now that
Mayflower is migrating to another solution (and we'll do that as well)
and I'd expect this to bitrot extremely quick if we both bail out.
As described in the release lifecycle docs from postgresql[1], v11 will
stop receiving fixes as of Nov 9 2023. This means it's EOL throughout
the entire lifetime of 23.11, so let's drop it now.
A lot of examples are also referencing postgresql_11. Where it's
sensible, use postgresql_15 as example now to avoid confusion.
This is also handy because the LLVM 16 fix for postgresql is not
available for postgresql 11 ;-)

* luarocks-packages-updater: init
Goal is to make it possible to maintain out-of-tree luarocks packages
without needing to clone nixpkgs.
maintainers/scripts/update-luarocks-packages gets renamed to
pkgs/development/lua-modules/updater/updater.py
Once merged you can run for instance
nix run nixpkgs#luarocks-packages-updater -- -i contrib/luarocks-packages.csv -o contrib/generated-packages.nix
I also set the parallelism (--proc) to 1 by default else luarocks fails
because of https://github.com/luarocks/luarocks/issues/1540
* Update maintainers/scripts/pluginupdate.py
