This change which involves creating multiple outputs for CUDA
redistributable packages.
We use a script to find out, ahead of time, the outputs each redist
package provides. From that, we are able to create multiple outputs for
supported redist packages, allowing users to specify exactly which
components they require.
Beyond the script which finds outputs ahead of time, there is some custom
code involved in making this happen. For example, the way Nixpkgs
typically handles multiple outputs involves making `dev` the default
output when available, and adding `out` to `dev`'s
`propagatedBuildInputs`.
Instead, we make each output independent of the others. If a user wants
only to include the headers found in a redist package, they can do so by
choosing the `dev` output. If they want to include dynamic libraries,
they can do so by specifying the `lib` output, or `static` for static
libraries.
To avoid breakages, we continue to provide the `out` output, which
becomes the union of all other outputs, effectively making the split
outputs opt-in.
1. Clarify what is the reason for importing and to where it saves
2. Clarify that packages.sqlite is a temporary file
3. Link to section about native dependencies from first mention of ql.nix
* nixpkgs manual, doc Python: render interpreters in a table
The current paragraph presenting Python interpreters is verbose and hinders clarity. The information provided is well suited to be rendered as a table.

I had to change ${go-modules} to $goModules to allow overrideAttrs to work;
However, env vars cannot contain -, so i had to change go-modules too.
This in turn broke nix-update because it uses the go-modules attr.
Instead of making nix-update more complicated, make go-modules naming match cargoDeps.
`fd --type f | xargs sd '\bgo-modules\b' 'goModules'`

release note added
also updates nixdoc to 2.3.0. the nixdoc update is not a separate commit
because that would leave the manual build broken for one commit,
potentially breaking bisects and rebases.
