This will hopefully reduce future diffs, as JSON doesn't have a trailing
comma for lists, and it's unlikely that new commands will be added after
the letter `v`. Sorting this list alphabetically also makes it slightly
more organised.

After final improvements to the official formatter implementation,
this commit now performs the first treewide reformat of Nix files using it.
This is part of the implementation of RFC 166.
Only "inactive" files are reformatted, meaning only files that
aren't being touched by any PR with activity in the past 2 months.
This is to avoid conflicts for PRs that might soon be merged.
Later we can do a full treewide reformat to get the rest,
which should not cause as many conflicts.
A CI check has already been running for some time to ensure that new and
already-formatted files are formatted, so the files being reformatted here
should also stay formatted.

It's become a common pattern to use `rev = "refs/tags/${version}"` rather than
just `rev = version` to ensure that the tag gets fetched rather than a branch
that has the same name. This has so far been done using boilerplate though, so
let's add a simple abstraction to fetch a tag instead.
Some important ones like fetchLFS were missing. See
https://discourse.nixos.org/t/how-to-use-git-lfs-with-fetchgit/55975 for a
documented instance where this confused a user.
This still isn't complete but the remaining ones I felt were rather niche and I
am not familiar enough with them to sufficiently document their purpose or
usage.
the `devmode` helper made for the Nixpkgs/NixOS manual was exposed wrapped
in `mkShell`, which made it impossible to reuse.
this change strips that wrapper and reproduces it at the call site.
now one can use `devmode` from anywhere Nixpkgs is available:
devmode = pkgs.callPackage "${pkgs.path}/pkgs/tools/nix/web-devmode.nix" {
buildArgs = toString ./.;
open = "/index.html";
};
