When the user aborts the installation because a core dump is discovered or the
installation command failed, displaying the abort backtrace doesn't make much
sense. Hide it when the abort condition is &user-abort-error and skip directly
to the dump page.
* gnu/installer/steps.scm (&user-abort-error): New variable.
(user-abort-error?): New procedure.
* gnu/installer/newt/final.scm (run-install-failed-page): Raise a
user-abort-error.
* gnu/installer/newt/welcome.scm (run-welcome-page): Ditto.
* gnu/installer.scm (installer-program): Hide the backtrace page and directly
propose to dump the report when the a &user-abort-error is raised.
* gnu/installer/parted.scm (user-partitions->configuration): Introduce
vertical space and a comment.
* gnu/installer/services.scm (G_): New macro.
(%system-services): Add comment for OpenSSH.
(system-services->configuration): Add vertical space and comments.
* gnu/installer/user.scm (users->configuration): Add comment.
* gnu/installer/steps.scm (format-configuration): Add comment.
(configuration->file): Expound leading comment. Pass #:format-comment
to 'pretty-print-with-comments/splice'.
* gnu/installer.scm (module-to-import?): Return #t for (guix read-print).
* gnu/installer/steps.scm (configuration->file): Use
'pretty-print-with-comments/splice' instead of 'for-each' and 'pretty-print'.

* gnu/installer/dump.scm: New file.
* gnu/installer/newt/dump.scm: New file.

* gnu/installer/record.scm (<installer>)[dump-page]: New field.
* gnu/installer/steps.scm (%current-result): New variable.
(run-installer-steps): Update it.
* gnu/installer.scm (installer-program): Add tar and gip to the installer
path. Add guile-webutils and gnutls to the Guile extensions. Generate and send
the crash dump report.

This will allow us to automate testing of the installer.

(current-server-socket, current-clients): New variables.
(open-server-socket, call-with-server-socket): New procedure.
(with-server-socket): New macro.

current-input-port and current-clients.

in 'with-socket-server'. Call 'sigaction' for SIGPIPE.

(run-form-with-clients, send-to-clients): New procedures.
(draw-info-page): Add call to 'run-form-with-clients'.

(run-install-failed-page): When (current-clients) is non-empty, call
'send-to-clients' without displaying a choice window.
Until now, step descriptions in the menu that shows up when hitting
"Exit" would not be translated. That's because the 'G_' procedure was
called once and for all when the installer was started.
* gnu/installer/steps.scm (<installer-step>)[description]: Add the
'thunked' attribute.
When trying to jump to the first step, DONE-STEPS ends-up being null, which
fails the matching condition.

the empty DONE-STEPS case properly.
