docs: add links to string context documentation
...
operators are an everyday thing in the Nix language, and this page will
hopefully be consulted by many users.
string contexts are quite exotic, and not linking to the detailed
explanation will require readers to figure out manually what this is
about, or worse, skim over and run into problems later.

This commit adds a new 'Debugging Nix' section to the Nix manual. It provides instructions on how to build Nix with debug symbols and how to debug the Nix binary using debuggers like `lldb`.

docs/testing: add --verbose flag for running single tests
...
Most of the time people run single tests for debugging reason,
so it's a sane default to have them see all the console output.
This commit still retains the section about running tests directly with
meson, because in some debugging cases it's just nice to have less
abstractions i.e. when using strace.

doc: add admonitions for macOS 15 Sequoia update ( #11487 )
...
The impending release of macOS 15 Sequoia will break many existing nix
installs on macOS, which may lead to an increased number of people who
are looking to try to reinstall Nix without noticing the open/pinned
issue (#10892 ) that explains the problem and outlines how to migrate
existing installs.
These admonitions are a short-term measure until we are over the hump
and support volumes dwindle.

fix(nix fmt): remove the default "." argument
...
When `nix fmt` is called without an argument, Nix appends the "." argument before calling the formatter. The comment in the code is:
> Format the current flake out of the box
This also happens when formatting sub-folders.
This means that the formatter is now unable to distinguish, as an interface, whether the "." argument is coming from the flake or the user's intent to format the current folder. This decision should be up to the formatter.
Treefmt, for example, will automatically look up the project's root and format all the files. This is the desired behaviour. But because the "." argument is passed, it cannot function as expected.
