Fixes <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/68848>.
The current implementation of the home-dotfiles-service-type contradicts
the Guix manual. This patch properly implements both the plain and Stow
dotfiles directory layouts.
It does so by refactoring home-dotfiles-configuration adding a new
packages field to support GNU Stow's users workflow and introducing
a new layout field to switch between the two directory layouts.
* gnu/home/services/dotfiles (home-dotfiles-configuration): Migrate to
(gnu services configuration);
[packages]: new field;
[layout]: new field;
(strip-stow-dotfile): new variable;
(strip-plain-dotfile): new variable;
(home-dotfiles-configuration->files): use the new fields;
[directory-contents]: allow for
selecting a subset of application dotfile directories;
* doc/guix.texi: document the new layouts.

Currently connman has no main.conf as specified in 'man 5 connman.conf' which
would allow setting NetworkInterfaceBalcklist and other useful options.
This patch adds connman-general-configuration, serializes it and
passes to connmad with --config= flag.
All configuration fields are 'maybe-*' deliberately, to not disturb current
users and not require supporting configuration changes for connmand.
* gnu/services/networking.scm (<connman-general-configuration>): New
configuration record to represent main.conf for connmand.

In order to be able to provide decryption keys for the LUKS device, they need
to be available in the initial ram disk. However they cannot be stored inside
the usual initrd, since it is stored in the store and being a
world-readable (as files in the store are) is not a desired property for a
initrd containing decryption keys. This commit adds an option to load
additional initrd during the boot, one that is not stored inside the store and
therefore can contain secrets.
Since only grub supports encrypted /boot, only grub is modified to use the
extra-initrd. There is no use case for the other bootloaders.
* doc/guix.texi (Bootloader Configuration): Describe the new extra-initrd
field.
* gnu/bootloader.scm (<bootloader-configuration>): Add extra-initrd field.
