We now explain what Radicale even is and classify reusing the hashed
passwords of login accounts as limitation because it requires using
compatible password hashes.
This is difficult because compatible password hashes need an overlap
between libxcrypt and Radicales choice of libraries: libpass, argon2 and
bcrypt.
Extract the source code into a proper .nix file so we get source linting
and formatting for free. Pruned from bad practices of the past, like
global `with lib`.
With upcoming changes to the dovecot home and maildirectories we need to
introduce a way to nudge users to inform themselves about manual
migration steps they might need to carry out.
The idea here is to allow us to safely make breaking changes and notify
the user of required migration steps at eval time, so they can make the
necessary changes in time.
SNM supports DMARC reporting, but it's disabled by default. For email
greybeards, that's fine, but I think it would be useful to teach email newbies (as I was a few
months ago) that this is something you should seriously consider
enabling.
I opted to put this in a new "Advanced Configurations" section that
points experienced mailserver admins to our howto guides, and newbies to
a couple of important things.

To generate the list of options, we need to generate and commit a rst
file to make all files available for ReadTheDoc.
An Hydra test ensures this generated file is up-to-date. If it is not
up-to-date, the error message explains the user how to generate it:
the user just needs to run `nix-shell --run generate-rst-options`.
