Allow attaching to non-child processes by default

The inability to run strace or gdb is the kind of
developer-unfriendliness that we're used to from OS X, let's not do it
on NixOS.

This restriction can be re-enabled by setting

  boot.kernel.sysctl."kernel.yama.ptrace_scope" = 1;

It might be nice to have a NixOS module for enabling hardened defaults.

Xref #14392.

Thanks @abbradar.

README

To build the manual, you need Nix installed on your system (no need
for NixOS). To install Nix, follow the instructions at

    https://nixos.org/nix/download.html

When you have Nix on your system, in the root directory of the project
(i.e., `nixpkgs`), run:

    nix-build nixos/release.nix -A manual.x86_64-linux

When this command successfully finishes, it will tell you where the
manual got generated.
