doc/coding-conventions: Fix version attribute suffix to match reality

The current doc is wildly out of touch with reality. A regex search shows the following stats. ``` Style example Frequency Regex used nix-2-5: 8 [a-zA-Z]-[0-9]+(-[0-9]+)+ = nix-2_5: 17 [a-zA-Z]-[0-9]+(_[0-9]+)+ = nix_2_5: 689 [a-zA-Z]_[0-9]+(_[0-9]+)+ = nix_2-5: 1 [a-zA-Z]_[0-9]+(-[0-9]+)+ = ```

227−- If there are multiple versions of a package, this _should_ be reflected in the variable names in `all-packages.nix`, e.g. `json-c-0-9` and `json-c-0-11`. If there is an obvious “default” version, make an attribute like `json-c = json-c-0-9;`. See also [](#sec-versioning)
