6aeb856c56 Re-word "modified setup.sh" in pill 10
Since `setup.sh` is a new addition, it makes more sense to not use the
word "modified", as it did not exist before :).

Update link for the // operator
The previous link leads to the top of the guide whereas the updated link
leads to Section *15.3 Operators* where one can quickly find the row in
the table that presents the `//` operator.

5d1e0e1af4 Change install arg from man to man-db
The install command `nix-env -i man` does not work as `man` is the
*attribute name* meanwhile the command expects the derivation name which
is `man-db`. If using the attribute name then the command should use the
`{--attr | -A}` option and pass the attribute path, e.g.:
`nix-env -iA nixpkgs.man`.

Make clear what is conventional vs mandatory for Darwin
We indeed don't want to use jargon like "stdenv" too soon, but we also don't want to imply Nix is less flexible than it is.

remove stdenv references
`stdenv` has not yet been mentioned in this tutorial and the target audience (people new to nix) will not know what it is.  It shouldn't be mentioned until it is properly described (as it is in pill 19).

I think the for is unnecessary and can be confusing (at least for me).
