The dbroot (target PR database root directory) is configurable but default to /var/target, a historic value. But the reason for adding configurability was to move the target directory out of /var. This is because the File Hierarchy Standard v3.0 mandates that this "target" directory not be in /var. See https://refspecs.linuxfoundation.org/FHS_3.0/fhs-3.0.pdf
This change moves the default from /var/target to /etc/target, but this value is still configurable, so those wishing to continue to use /var/target can still do so.
