When the user does not use any desktop environment, the typical sequence is to
log in and then type `startx' into the tty to get a window manager running.
Most distributions do provide a startx by default, but Guix has only an
xorg-start-command that is not suitable for this.
This commit adds a second procedure, xorg-start-command-xinit, that correctly
picks a virtual terminal to use, sets up XAUTHORITY and starts xinit with the
correct arguments. That should make running Guix without a desktop
environment more approachable.
* gnu/services/xorg.scm (xorg-start-command-xinit): New public procedure.
* doc/guix.texi (X Window): Document it.

screen-locker-service-type by default does both define PAM entry
and make program setuid binary. Normally both methods are
mutually exclusive, if binary has setuid set it does not really
needs PAM, otherway around also similar, if PAM is enabled
binary should not relay on setuid.
Recent swaylock package now compiled with PAM support. When PAM
support is compiled in, swaylock rejects executing if binary is
also setuid program.
This change turns screen-locker-configuration from strict
PAM AND setuid to more flexible PAM AND/OR setuid. Allowing
swaylock to be configured properly while supporting other
screen locker preferences.
* gnu/services/xorg.scm (screen-locker-configuration): Switch from
define-record-type to define-configuration.
[using-pam?]: New field to control PAM entry existence.

program if using-setuid? is set to #f.

This patch adds support for proper xorg server input rewriting. It uses the
lookup-package-direct-input procedure to configure the X server paths
dynamically, instead of always using the hard coded package. Something like
this is now possible:
(define other-mesa
(package-input-rewriting/spec `(("mesa" . ,(const other-mesa)))))
(xorg-configuration
(xorg-configuration
(server (other-mesa xorg-server))))
Without this patch the X server would still be configured with mesa (causing
version issues), and not with other-mesa (as per the input rewrite).

This is not done for gdm-service-type, so do not do it here either, for
consistency. Perhaps that change had been motivated by the fact that using
ratpoison without a default terminal makes for a poor user experience (one
cannot even view the help screen without a terminal); this was fixed with the
preceding commit.

Previously the xorg-server package specified in the configuration was ignored
entirely in xorg-configuration->file. This had the effect that while the X
program of the configured package would be executed, the modules of the
configured package would be ignored in favor of the default xorg-server
package's modules. This fixes that.
