Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/46737>.
PostgreSQL running with a different socket directory to the default one in the
package itself breaks some services, this commit restores the previous
behaviour where PostgreSQL by default will run with a socket directory that
matches the default used by PostgreSQL packaged for Guix.
Switching to a different default value can happen, but only alongside changing
the PostgreSQL package.
* gnu/services/databases.scm (<postgresql-config-file>)[socket-directory]:
Change default to #false.
* doc/guix.texi (Database Services): Update documentation, and specify a
different value for disabling connections via sockets.
* gnu/tests/guix.scm (%guix-data-service-os): Use default PostgreSQL
behaviour.
* gnu/tests/monitoring.scm (%zabbix-os): Likewise.
* gnu/tests/web.scm (patchwork-os): Likewise.

Currently, if the postgresql package major version changes, this is going to
break the service upon upgrade, because PostgreSQL will reject the data files
from the differing major version of the service.
Because it's important to either keep running a particular major version, or
intentionally upgrade, I think the configuration would be better with no
default. I think this is also going to be helpful when trying to assist users
upgrading PostgreSQL.
* gnu/services/databases.scm (<postgresql-configuration>): Remove default for
postgresql.
(postgresql-service-type): Remove the default value.
* gnu/tests/databases.scm (%postgresql-os): Update accordingly.
* gnu/tests/guix.scm (%guix-data-service-os): Update accordingly.
* gnu/tests/monitoring.scm (%zabbix-os): Update accordingly.
* gnu/tests/web.scm (patchwork-os): Update accordingly.
* doc/guix.texi (PostgreSQL): Update accordingly.
* gnu/services/guix.scm: New file.
* gnu/tests/guix.scm: New file.
* gnu/local.mk (GNU_SYSTEM_MODULES): Add both new files.
* doc/guix.texi (Guix Services): New section documenting the Guix Data
Service.
