51cd84ba57 pkgs/README.md: add meta.mainProgram to new-package checklist template
The document already states that `meta.mainProgram` is mandatory for new packages, this change adds it to the template list of checks during review.

doc: improve fetchers overview, deduplicate readme content, follow doc conventions (#297654)
* doc: improve fetchers overview, deduplicate readme content

* Improve caveat explanation and some fetchurl content

* move out consumer docs on source fetching

* move note on mirror URLs to the relevant section

this may be better suited for the `fetchurl` reference, but it's probably better to
just render that information into the manual. for now, because
- contributor documentation encourages mirrors
- we can expect contributors to dig into the source
- linking source files is trivial in in-code documentation
we leave it there.

* move instructions for updating hashes to the manual

* Add more clarity on text, reorganise source hash methods

fcc95ff817 treewide: Fix all Nix ASTs in all markdown files
This allows for correct highlighting and maybe future automatic
formatting. The AST was verified to work with nixfmt only.

f72b809df5 rnix-lsp: remove package
Upstream has been archived. The current package is not installable by
default, since it depends on nix 2.15 which is marked as insecure.

4769458228 CONTRIBUTING.md: Update markdown emphasising syntax
GitHub supported special markdown syntax for emphasising blocks for some
time. This was however a beta feature, and still is, so it's subject to
changes.

Recently such a change happened: The syntax is different now.
