We were using protocol version 6 but requesting version 4. The only
reason that this worked was because of a broken version check in
'nix-store --serve'. That was fixed in
c2d7456926,
which had the side-effect of breaking hydra-queue-runner.

nix.trustedUsers is deprecated as of 22.05, and since the nix.extraOptions config is just doing something similar, I moved that to the new nix.settings as well
NOTE: I'm well-aware that we have to be careful with this to avoid new
regressions on hydra.nixos.org, so this should only be merged after
extensive testing from more people.
Motivation: I updated Nix in my deployment to 2.9.1 and decided to also
update Hydra in one go (and compile it against the newer Nix). Given
that this also updates the C++ code in `hydra-{queue-runner,eval-jobs}`
this patch might become useful in the future though.
I started to wonder quite recently why Hydra doesn't send email
notifications anymore to me. I saw the following issue in the log of
`hydra-notify.service`:
May 22 11:57:29 hydra 9bik0bxyxbrklhx6lqwifd6af8kj84va-hydra-notify[1887289]: fatal: unsafe repository ('/var/lib/hydra/scm/git/3e70c16c266ef70dc4198705a688acccf71e932878f178277c9ac47d133cc663' is owned by someone else)

This is also a problem because of Git's fix for CVE-2022-24765[1], so I
applied the same fix as for Nix[2], by using `--git-dir` which skips the
code-path for the ownership-check[3].
