Introduce top-level structuredAttrs
field in JSON derivation format
...
Makes the behavoral change of #13263 without the underlying refactor.
Hopefully this clearly safe from a perf and GC perspective, and will
make it easier to benchmark #13263 .

glossary: re-introduce "derivation"
...
The "derivation" is one of the key concepts and captures the most distinctive aspect of Nix:
that we work with a certain type data (linked files) in a certain manner (using pure functions).
Here we finally arrange all the important pieces to show how they belong
together, while referring to the respective reference documentation for details.
This change also unbreaks downstream links to `//glossary#gloss-derivation`,
which had been broken by removing the glossary entry
