Until 209204e23b and
d57cab7641, the default image type used by "guix
system image" was an MBR image with an ESP partition.
Having both an MBR image and an ESP partition is handy because the image will
boot on most x86 based systems using legacy BIOS and/or UEFI.
We now have a distinction between MBR images and EFI images. Introduce a new
MBR hybrid image type and default to it to restore the default behaviour.
This also fixes the images section of (gnu ci) that was trying to install a
BIOS bootloader on an EFI, GPT image and failing to do so.

Previously, the image repository name was automatically computed from
the packages in the manifest without allowing the user to set a custom
one. As such, changing the packages in the manifest would result in a
new image name. Thereby requiring updating documentation et cetera when
using `docker load` directory on the resulting image.
Inspired by `docker build -t`, this commit adds a new Docker-specific
option to `guix pack` which allows setting a custom repository name for
the resulting image. If this option is not specified, pack falls back
to computing the name from the manifest. Therefore, this change is
entirely backwards compatible.

Add 'createAccount?', 'uid' and 'gid' to <postgresql-configuation>.
Unlike other system daemons, the PostgreSQL data directory is typically
meant to persist across 'guix system reconfigure' and once created, you
don't want it's UID or GID to change anymore.
Furthermore, if you want to place the data directory on a network share
and use NFSv4 with idmap, then the 'postgres' user must exist when the
'rpc.idmapd' daemon is launched; prior to mounting the share. And it
needs to be possible to mount the share without configuring PostgreSQL.
With NFSv3, the UID and GID typically needs to match those on the
server.
The added options allow for both of these scenarios:
You can either create the user in (operating-system (users)) completely
independently of the 'postgresql-service-type' (for instance to get your
NFS setup working first prior to configuring your databases) - or "pin"
it's UID / GID values.

(git-fetch/in-band): Express in terms of git-fetch/in-band*.

* doc/guix.texi (System Installation): Add suggestion when
booting the installer fails with a black screen.
The contributing documentation makes a reference to dunst.scm as an example of
the build process failing after an update. This patch replaces that reference
with a much more permanent linux.scm.

Since commit ca8acad3 ("build: Add dependency on guix script for help2man
targets."), the $< special Make variable in the recipe was matching
scripts/guix instead of the more specific 'guix/scripts/%.scm' source.
* doc/local.mk ($(srcdir)/%D%/guix-%.1): Move the scripts/guix prerequisite to
the end.
The `pam-mount-volumes-service-type' adds additional volumes to the
pam-mount-service-type in addition to any that are already specified in
`pam-mount-rules'.

`pam-mount-service-type'.

This reverts commit e9a5eebc78, which
as far as I can tell breaks system roll-backs thusly:
[...]

* doc/guix.texi (File Search Services): New node.
Relates to <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/63082>.
* doc/guix.texi (Audio Services): Do not use a deprecated user form; keep the
default one. Remove port. Specify a music-directory. Mention the importance
of permissions on the music directory.
Relates to <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/63082>.
* gnu/services/audio.scm (mpd-shepherd-service): Create a default .cache
directory. Use mkdir-p/perms and refactor loop. Set the HOME environment
variables.
Relates to <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/63082>.
* gnu/services/audio.scm (mpd-output) [mixer-type]: Change default value from
"none" to unspecified.
* doc/guix.texi (Audio Services): Regenerate doc.
Rationale: the tristate value was awkward to deal with, the default log file
name was odd (/var/log/mpd/log) and it required special attention to create
the 'mpd' parent directory as root and chowning it to the MPD user. It also
didn't match the default behavior of MPD, which is to log to systemd or syslog
unless a log file is specified.
* gnu/services/audio.scm (mpd-log-file-sanitizer): New procedure.
(mpd-configuration) [log-file]: Remove default maybe value. Add sanitizer.
(mpd-shepherd-service): Validate the log file parent directory exists and has
the right permissions. Conditionally add syslogd to requirements.
(mympd-log-to-sanitizer): New procedure.
(mympd-configuration) [log-to]: Change type to maybe-string. Update doc and
add sanitizer.
(mympd-shepherd-service) [requirement]: Fix to use syslogd. Adjust
accordingly.
[start] Adjust accordingly.
(mympd-log-rotation): Check log-to via maybe-value-set?.
* doc/guix.texi (Audio Services): Update doc.
* gnu/services/audio.scm (mpd-configuration) [log-level]: List log-level in
decreasing verbosity order in doc.
* doc/guix.texi (Audio Services): Update doc.
Previously, the generated config file would contain arbitrary whitespace that
made it look ugly.
* gnu/services/vpn.scm (<wireguard-configuration>) [dns]: Change default value
from #f to '().
(wireguard-configuration-file): Use match-record. Format each line
individually, assembling the lines at the end to avoid extraneous white space.
* doc/guix.texi (VPN Services): Update doc.
At this point, there are three equivalent TeX Live sub-systems:
texlive-scheme-basic, texlive-tiny, and (texlive-updmap.cfg). It is confusing
to keep so many around.
* doc/contributing.texi (Submitting Patches): Remove reference to
TEXLIVE-TINY.
