Conceptually a UUID is just a bytevector. However, there's software out
there such as GRUB that relies on the string representation of different
UUID types (e.g., the string representation of DCE UUIDs differs from
that of ISO-9660 UUIDs, even if they are actually bytevectors of the
same length). This new <uuid> record type allows us to preserve
information about the type of UUID so we can eventually convert it to a
string using the right representation.
* gnu/system/uuid.scm (<uuid>): New record type.
(bytevector->uuid): New procedure.
(uuid): Return calls to 'make-uuid'.
(uuid->string): Rewrite using 'match-lambda*' to accept a single 'uuid?'
argument.
* gnu/bootloader/grub.scm (grub-root-search): Check for 'uuid?' instead
of 'bytevector?'.
* gnu/system.scm (bootable-kernel-arguments): Check whether ROOT-DEVICE
is 'uuid?'.
(read-boot-parameters): Use 'bytevector->uuid' when the
store device is a bytevector.
(read-boot-parameters-file): Check for 'uuid?' instead of 'bytevector?'.
(device->sexp): New procedure.
(operating-system-boot-parameters-file): Use it for 'root-device' and
'store'.
(operating-system-bootcfg): Remove conditional in definition of
'root-device'.
* gnu/system/file-systems.scm (file-system->spec): Check for 'uuid?' on
DEVICE and take its bytevector.
* gnu/system/mapped-devices.scm (open-luks-device): Likewise.
* gnu/system/vm.scm (iso9660-image): Call 'uuid-bytevector' for the
#:volume-uuid argument.
* gnu/bootloader/grub.scm (install-grub-efi): Fix grub-install invocation for
EFI systems.
* gnu/system/examples/bare-bones.tmpl: Use the newer
"bootloader-configuration" syntax.
* gnu/system/examples/desktop.tmpl: Use bootloader-configuration sytax. Also,
use the same label for the LUKS-mapped device and the root partition. Remove
unneeded "title" field for the file-system based on LUKS; as noted in the
manual, the "title" field is ignored for mapped devices.
* gnu/system/examples/lightweight-desktop.tmpl: Use bootloader-configuration,
and use grub-efi-bootloader.
* gnu/bootloader.scm (menu-entry-device-mount-point): New variable. Export it.
(<menu-entry>: New field "device".
* gnu/bootloader/grub.scm (grub-confgiuration-file): Handle <menu-entry>
entries.
* gnu/bootloader/extlinux.scm (extlinux-configuration-file): Handle
<menu-entry> entries.
* gnu/system.scm (menu->entry->boot-parameters): Delete variable.
(boot-parameters->menu-entry): New variable. Export it.
(operating-system-bootcfg): Make OLD-ENTRIES a list of <menu-entry>.
* guix/script/system.scm (reinstall-bootloader): Fix bootcfg usage.
(perform-action): Fix bootcfg usage.

and adds the following changes:
* gnu/bootloader/grub.scm (svg->png): Add 'package->derivation' call for
GUILE-2.2. Pass #:guile-for-build to 'gexp->derivation'.

entries.
