The idea is to provide a convenient way to enable most vanilla hardening features in one go. The hardened profile, then, will serve as a place for features that enhance security but cannot be enabled for all deployments because they interfere with legitimate use cases (e.g., using ptrace to debug problems in an already running process). Closes https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/24680
