Instruct the user to follow redirects when installing Nix.
Nix installation now requires following redirects using `curl -L`. This
is currently represented on the [Nix download page][] but not in the
manual. This change updates the manual to reflect this.

Using `curl` without the `-L` flag results in an empty body, making
installation a no-op.

[Nix download page]: https://nixos.org/download.html

Drop misleading ellipses
This portion of the quick start guide may lead to confusion for
newcomers to Nix.  This change clarifies the example to one that can be
copied in its entirety.
