Convert short nix options to long ones
e.g. nix-env -e subversion => nix-env --uninstall subversion The aim is to make the documentation less cryptic for newcomers and the long options are more self-documenting. The change was made with the following script: <https://github.com/aschmolck/convert-short-nix-opts-to-long-ones> and sanity checked visually.
