Change order of pam_mount.conf.xml so that users can override the preset configs.
My use case is to mount a gocryptfs (a fuse program) volume. I can not do that in current order.
Because even if I change the `<fusermount>` and `<fuserumount>` by add below to extraVolumes
```
<fusemount>${pkgs.fuse}/bin/mount.fuse %(VOLUME) %(MNTPT) "%(before=\"-o \" OPTIONS)"</fusemount>
<fuseumount>${pkgs.fuse}/bin/fusermount -u %(MNTPT)</fuseumount>
```
mount.fuse still does not work because it can not find `fusermount`. pam_mount will told stat /bin/fusermount failed.
Fine, I can add a `<path>` section to extraVolumes
```
<path>${pkgs.fuse}/bin:${pkgs.coreutils}/bin:${pkgs.utillinux}/bin</path>
```
but then the `<path>` section is overridden by the hardcoded `<path>${pkgs.utillinux}/bin</path>` below. So it still does not work.

If I understand correctly your problem is you need to change the path but it's hardcoded. |
|
Yeah. My current problem is that I can not modify path. The curent file also has a few other option specified. I think in rare situation, some other people may want to chang those options. |

Looks good. We always want to give manual configuration higher precedence over preset configuration. |
