nixos/manual: inline the single footnote

Browse Source 
this is a lot easier than adding footnote support for just the one
instance. if a use case for footnotes appears in the future (e.g. if we
wanted to render the nixpkgs manual with nixos-render-docs as well) this
decision should be reevaluated.

@ -67,7 +67,13 @@ When using multiple modules, you may need to access configuration values
defined in other modules. This is what the `config` function argument is
for: it contains the complete, merged system configuration. That is,
`config` is the result of combining the configurations returned by every
module [^1] . For example, here is a module that adds some packages to
module. (If you're wondering how it's possible that the (indirect) *result*
of a function is passed as an *input* to that same function: that's
because Nix is a "lazy" language --- it only computes values when
they are needed. This works as long as no individual configuration
value depends on itself.)
For example, here is a module that adds some packages to
[](#opt-environment.systemPackages) only if
[](#opt-services.xserver.enable) is set to `true` somewhere else:
