767485a0de lib/options: deprecate docbook text and literalDocBook
deprecate literalDocBook by adding a warning (that will not fire yet) to
its uses and other docbook literal strings by adding optional warning
message to mergeJSON.

9c3c13b50d nixos/make-options-doc: add inline roles for varname/envar
both of these render distinctly from plain literals in the manpage, and
manpages even semantically distinguish between the two.

65fd6f0774 nixos/make-options-doc: eat newlines in MD admonitions
leaving some newlines around after an admonition was closed causes the
newline rule to match, which in turn inserts literallayout newlines into
te xml output. that's not what we want.

7a091b2686 nixos/make-options-doc: reuse markdown instance in mergeJSON
this doesn't construct a new (expensive) parser for every option, making
rendering about 30x faster.

18be724a58 nixos/make-options-doc: give MD conversion error locations
during docs conversion it can be very useful to know exactly *where* the
error the script complained about is. the name of the option should be
sufficient since option merging is rather rare, and won't merge doc
attributes anyway.

7c81905344 nixos/make-options-doc: Support Nix-provided declaration locations
Feature was introduced in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/174460,
but wasn't supported in `mergeJSON.py` yet.

8bff3fef40 nixos/make-options-doc: Support block quotes
Our tooling would trip without the inner <para>, despite the docbook
docs suggesting that <para> occurs in <blockquote> and vice versa.

25de2935ef lib/modules: Document _module.args
Documents the _module.args option, motivated by many usages in Flakes,
especially with the deprecation of extraArgs
(78ada83361)

The documentation rendering for this option had to be handled a bit
specially, since it's not declared in nixos/modules like all the other
NixOS options.

0c766a100e lib/options: Throw error for options without a type
Makes all options rendered in the manual throw an error if they don't
have a type specified.

This is a follow-up to #76184

50954ad1c5 nixos/make-options-doc: treat missing descriptions as errors by default
this partially solves the problem of "missing description" warnings of the
options doc build being lost by nix build, at the cost of failing builds that
previously ran. an option to disable this behaviour is provided.

fc614c37c6 nixos/documentation: split options doc build
most modules can be evaluated for their documentation in a very
restricted environment that doesn't include all of nixpkgs. this
evaluation can then be cached and reused for subsequent builds, merging
only documentation that has changed into the cached set. since nixos
ships with a large number of modules of which only a few are used in any
given config this can save evaluation a huge percentage of nixos
options available in any given config.

in tests of this caching, despite having to copy most of nixos/, saves
about 80% of the time needed to build the system manual, or about two
second on the machine used for testing. build time for a full system
config shrank from 9.4s to 7.4s, while turning documentation off
entirely shortened the build to 7.1s.
