With the issue nix-community/home-manager#8033 and
it's PR nix-community/home-manager#8057 completed Home Manager
now supports a more general solution for using the ghostty package on non-NixOS systems.

Re-write the "Nix on other distros" section with the extra information
on how to use ghostty as a nix package on non-NixOS systems.

This came as an add-on after nix-community/home-manager#3968
