Strongly inspired by the forgejo counterpart[1], for the following
reasons:
* The feature is broken with the current module and crashes on
authentication with the following stacktrace (with a PAM service
`gitea` added):

It only worked after turning off multiple sandbox settings and adding
`shadow` as supplementary group to `gitea.service`.
I'm not willing to maintain additional multiple sandbox settings for
different features, especially given that it was probably not used for
quite a long time:
* There was no PR or bugreport about sandboxing issues related to
PAM.
* Ever since the module exists, it used the user `gitea`, i.e. it had
never read-access to `/etc/shadow`.
* Upstream has it disabled by default[2].
If somebody really needs it, it can still be brought back by an overlay
updating `tags` accordingly and modifying the systemd service config.

[UWSM](https://github.com/Vladimir-csp/uwsm) is a session manager that wraps a wayland
window compositor with useful systemd units like `graphical-session-pre.target`,
`graphical-session.target`, `xdg-desktop-autostart.target`.
This is useful for Wayland Compositors that do not start
these units on these own.
Example for Hyprland:
```nix
programs.hyprland.enable = true;
programs.uwsm.enable = true;
programs.uwsm.waylandCompositors = {
hyprland = {
compositorPrettyName = "Hyprland";
compositorComment = "Hyprland compositor managed by UWSM";
compositorBinPath = "/run/current-system/sw/bin/Hyprland";
};
};
```
