We just had a minor incident where apparently our build cache for the
critical security fix was deleted by automatic-gc (which I had stopped
manually) being reenabled by an unrelated whitby deploy.
This adds a new mechanism where by touching a file called
`/run/stop-automatic-gc` the GC can be prevented from running.
We might want to configure an occasional alert or something if this
file exists, so we don't forget about it when we are using it.
