Merge pull request #274110 from networkException/sysctl-net.core.wmem_max

nixos/{sysctl,caddy}: improvements for net.core.wmem_max

nixos/doc/manual/release-notes/rl-2405.section.md

···
   `globalRedirect` can now have redirect codes other than 301 through
   `redirectCode`.
 
+- [](#opt-boot.kernel.sysctl._net.core.wmem_max_) changed from a string to an integer because of the addition of a custom merge option (taking the highest value defined to avoid conflicts between 2 services trying to set that value), just as [](#opt-boot.kernel.sysctl._net.core.rmem_max_) since 22.11.

 - Gitea 1.21 upgrade has several breaking changes, including:
   - Custom themes and other assets that were previously stored in `custom/public/*` now belong in `custom/public/assets/*`
   - New instances of Gitea using MySQL now ignore the `[database].CHARSET` config option and always use the `utf8mb4` charset, existing instances should migrate via the `gitea doctor convert` CLI command.
