d5ffc94f33 use lookup paths in helper expressions consistently
this makes the files in question a bit more independent of source location.

to find where the value is set and how it's wired up:

22b278e011 Automatically document builtin constants
This is done in roughly the same way builtin functions are documented.

Also auto-link experimental features for primops, subsuming PR #8371.

doc: builtins: use a definition list
This looks a lot better (and is also more semantically meaningful).

Since this list is generated in a Nix expression, I don't think using
HTML here is going to be the thing that puts people off modifying this
part of the documentation!
