We hit a bug in OCP upgrades because the SELinux label for /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d changed from RHEL8 to RHEL9. ostree semantics here are that we by default retain file metadata across upgrades.

But, there's a potentially strong argument here that we should relabel /etc on upgrades. I think most people would want this. I have some worries about regressing something if we made it the default, so it may need to be an opt-in...something like

[sysroot]
relabel-etc=true

in the repo?
