backport of #81891

The configuration at https://ssl-config.mozilla.org/#server=nginx&config=intermediate
is reliably kept up-to-date in terms of security and compatible with a
wide range of clients. They've probably had more care and thought put
into them than our defaults, and will be easier to keep updated in
the future.

The only removed (rather than changed) configuration option here is
ssl_ecdh_curve, per mozilla/server-side-tls#189.

Resolves #80952.

(cherry picked from commit 4ed98d6)

Motivation for this change
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.
