This is done as the s3CredentialsFile specifies the environmentFile
for the systemd service, which can be used for more than just s3.

By default, restic determines the location of the cache based on the XDG
base dir specification, which is `~/.cache/restic` when the environment
variable `$XDG_CACHE_HOME` isn't set.
As restic is executed as root by default, this resulted in the cache being
written to `/root/.cache/restic`, which is not quite right for a system
service and also meant, multiple backup services would use the same cache
directory - potentially causing issues with locking, data corruption,
etc.
The goal was to ensure, restic uses the correct cache location for a
system service - one cache per backup specification, using `/var/cache`
as the base directory for it.
systemd sets the environment variable `$CACHE_DIRECTORY` once
`CacheDirectory=` is defined, but restic doesn't change its behavior
based on the presence of this environment variable.
Instead, the specifier [1] `%C` can be used to point restic explicitly
towards the correct cache location using the `--cache-dir` argument.
Furthermore, the `CacheDirectoryMode=` was set to `0700`, as the default
of `0755` is far too open in this case, as the cache might contain
sensitive data.
