 Improve user’s guide around deriving

 In particular:
  * add an intro to “10.6. Extensions to the “deriving” mechanism” giving
    an overview,
  * make the various sections on `-XDerivingFoo` subsections of
    “10.6.3. Deriving instances of extra classes (Data, etc.)”
  * Move the reference anchors for the various `DerivingFoo` extensions
    to a more appropriate spot.
  * Add subsection “10.6.6.1. Default deriving strategy” to the
    deriving section (#14357)
 }}}
