nixos-rebuild: Allow local builds when --target-host is used again
This is a followup of #148921, to allow local builds when
`--target-host` is used again. It also documents the change in
behavior, regarding the specialty of the `localhost` value.

By removing the special handling of an empty `buildHost` and non empty
`targetHost`, this change also slightly alters the behavior of
`nixos-rebuild`.

Originally by specifying `--target-host target --build-host ""`, the
now removed special case would transform those arguments to
`--target-host target --build-host target`.
Now the empty `--build-host` would result in a local build.

README.md

This directory is temporarily needed while we transition the manual to CommonMark. It stores the output of the ../md-to-db.sh script that converts CommonMark files back to DocBook.

We are choosing to convert the Markdown to DocBook at authoring time instead of manual building time, because we do not want the pandoc toolchain to become part of the NixOS closure.

Do not edit the DocBook files inside this directory or its subdirectories. Instead, edit the corresponding .md file in the normal manual directories, and run ../md-to-db.sh to update the file here.
