This moves the daemon protocol reference to the "Reference" section in
our new docs.
It also updates them a bit, we now use `{{< relref "path/to/file.md" >}}`
to refer to other files, and fixes the (previously broken) references
in handshake.md.

The Nix Daemon protocol is what's used to communicate with the nix-daemon,
either on the local system (in which case the communication happens via a Unix
domain socket), or with a remote Nix (in which this is tunneled over SSH).
It uses a custom binary format which isn't too documented. This reference here aims to serve as an in-depth documentation about some of the inner workings, data types etc.
A first implementation of this exists in griff/Nix.rs.
Work is underway to port / factor this out into reusable building blocks into the nix-compat crate.
