Includes a security fix for CVE-2020-13428.

improved security for stored passwords (from 3.0.9)
multiple security fixes, including microdns (from 3.0.9.1)

(cherry picked from commit 745245a)

Motivation for this change

Multiple security fixes and fixed crashes, hence the version bump for stable instead of pulling in all the individual fixes as patches.

Things done
  • Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS linux)
  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • macOS
    • other Linux distributions
  • Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nixpkgs-review --run "nixpkgs-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Determined the impact on package closure size (by running nix path-info -S before and after)
  • Ensured that relevant documentation is up to date
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

IIUC libmicrodns is built as a separate package so we might want to backport #84199 too?
