The dovecot filter config distributed with fail2ban watches for log
entries with a journalmatch filter of "_SYSTEMD_UNIT=dovecot.service",
but NixOS's Dovecot runs as dovecot2.service. Fix the journalmatch
config to match NixOS's Dovecot.
Motivation for this change
fail2ban doesn't currently work with dovecot because the upstream config uses a different name for the dovecot systemd service than NixOS.
Things done
I'm afraid I am very new to Nix / NixOS and I'm not sure how to test this.
