Motivation

tests/functional/help.sh calls nix-* commands with option --help
if nix is built without documentation the option --help throws an error because the man page it wants to display is missing

Context

With disabled docs nix can not be built because of a failing test.

This is blocked because the (pull_request) variation of the installer jobs did not run. @Mic92 Are you familiar with this? Can we configure it to only look at the (push) ones?
Alternatively, we could try to get the (pull_request) ones to actually run.

Yes. It think we actually want to run those for mergify. Here is the config: https://github.com/NixOS/nix/blob/master/.mergify.yml
But I think I want to actually update the GitHub ci config to enable those installer builds. For Backports this makes sense to me.
