The accounts directory is based on the hash of the settings.
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/270221 changed the default of
security.acme.defaults.server from null to the default letsencrypt URL
however as an unwanted side effect this means the accounts directory
changes and the ACME module will create a new a new account.
This can cause issues with people using CAA records that pin the
account ID or people who have datacenter-scale NixOS deployments
We allow setting this option to null again for people who want
to keep the old account and migrate at their own leisure.

One of the module that already supports the systemd-confinement module
is public-inbox. However with the changes to support DynamicUser and
ProtectSystem, the module will now fail at runtime if confinement is
enabled (it's optional and you'll need to override it via another
module).
The reason is that the RootDirectory is set to /var/empty in the
public-inbox module, which doesn't work well with the InaccessiblePaths
directive we now use to support DynamicUser/ProtectSystem.
To make this issue more visible, I decided to just change the priority
of the RootDirectory option definiton the default override priority so
that whenever another different option is defined, we'll get a conflict
at evaluation time.

Our more thorough parametrised tests uncovered that with the changes for
supporting DynamicUser, we now have the situation that for static users
the root directory within the confined environment is now writable for
the user in question.
This is obviously not what we want and I'd consider that a regression.
However while discussing this with @ju1m and my suggestion being to
set TemporaryFileSystem to "/" (as we had previously), they had an even
better idea[1]:

I like the solution with ReadOnlyPaths even more because it further
reduces the attack surface if the user is root. In chroot-only mode this
is especially useful, since if there are no other bind-mounted paths
involved in the unit configuration, the whole file system within the
confined environment is read-only.

these changes were generated with nixq 0.0.2, by running

nixq ">> mdDoc[remove] Argument[keep]" --batchmode nixos/**.nix

two mentions of the mdDoc function remain in nixos/, both of which
are inside of comments.
Since lib.mdDoc is already defined as just id, this commit is a no-op as
far as Nix (and the built manual) is concerned.
Certain software stacks have no support for OpenSSL non-standard PEM format and will fail to use
our NixOS CA bundle.
For this, it is necessary to fallback on a 'compatibility' bundle which will contain no additional
trust rules.
