Fix header for generated Dhall documentation #109337

By default, dhall-docs uses the name of the input directory
as the initial component of the documentation header. However,
since the input directory is built using Nix the header contains
the Nix store hash in the name, which then appears in the
generated documentation.

The fix is to override this default behavior by supplying the
--package-name flag to dhall-docs.

Things done
  • Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS linux)
  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • macOS
    • other Linux distributions
  • Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nixpkgs-review --run "nixpkgs-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Determined the impact on package closure size (by running nix path-info -S before and after)
  • Ensured that relevant documentation is up to date
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.
