This is causing CI to fail after #1026 merged. #1026 had a green
bill of health, but #1003 increased perlcritic to level 4. #1003
was not part of #1026 so it was not checked at perlcritic level 4.

mv: cannot move './static/bootstrap-4.3.1-dist' to './static/bootstrap/bootstrap-4.3.1-dist': Directory not empty
when 'make' is called more than once.
In NixOS, the user generation script was changed to set the permissions `0700`
to a home-directory that's specified in the `users.users`-submodule with
`createHome` being set to `true`[1].
However, the home-directory of `hydra` is also the base directory of other services using
other users (e.g. `hydra-queue-runner`). With permissions being `0700`, processes with
such a user cannot traverse into `/var/lib/hydra` and thus not into subdirectories.
I guess that this issue was kind of hidden because `hydra-init.service` ensures
proper permissions[2]. However, if `hydra-init.service` is not restarted on a
system-activation, the permissions of `/var/lib/hydra` will be set back to `0700`
by the activation script that runs on each activation.
This has lead to errors like this in `hydra-queue-runner` on my Hydra:
```

Because of that, I decided to remove the `createHome = true;` setting and instead used
`systemd-tmpfiles`[3] which can not only ensure that certain directories
exist, but also proper permissions.
With this change, we can also get rid of the manual setup in
`hydra-init.service` since `systemd-tmpfiles` will be executed by
`switch-to-configuration` before *any* systemd service gets started. On
startup, `systemd-tmpfiles-setup.service` is invoked within
`sysinit.target` being reached, so when `hydra-init.service` gets called
in `multi-user.target`, the structure already exists.

When I take a look at *all* failing builds (by clicking at `[...] more
jobs omitted`) and I try to compare the failures to another jobset, I'd
like to still view *all* failing builds in the compare-view.
This wasn't the case before since the `full=`-param was ignored by the
compare-buttons.
Yet again, manual testing is proving to be insufficient. I'm pretty
sure I wrote this code but lost it in a rebase, or perhaps the switch
to result classes.
At any rate, this implements the actual "fetch a retry row and run it"
for the hydra-notify daemon.
Tested by hand.
Get the number of seconds before the next retriable task is ready.
This number is specifically intended to be used as a timeout, where
`undef` means never time out.
passwords were replaced with salted sha1 instead of sha256, because I
don't want to have to figure out how to make slapd load this module
We could also just do {CLEARTEXT} for the purpose of this test
The test seems to be broken for a while[1]. The cause for this is that
in gitea 1.14 the `create-user` command got renamed to `user create`.

This gives us a place to put helper functions that act on entire
tables, not just individual records.
This should be a backwards compatible change, except in places we're
manually using result class names.
