If those packages were updated separately, the build would break after
the first commit. Neither of those package pairs works if the versions
are not in sync [0].

In my opinion, that is a valid reason for updating multiple packages in
the same commit.

[0] It's a little more complicated than that. Python-acme does not
depend on letsencrypt, so it should still work if updated separately.
But we should not break letsencrypt if we can help it. Letsencrypt and
python-acme are developed in the same code base and are only separated
for distribution, AFAICT.
