Machines without Kernel Mode Setting (those with many old and current AMD
GPUs, SiS GPUs, …) need uvesafb to show the GUI installer. Some may also need
a kernel parameter like nomodeset or vga=793, but we leave that for the user
to specify in GRUB.

Previously, the 'essential-services' would correspond to the initial,
non-containerized OS. Thus, all the file systems removed in
'container-essential-services' would actually still be there because the
essential services would be computed on the non-containerized OS.

Previously, 'guix system docker-image' would end up providing an OS that
would try to mount all of %CONTAINER-FILE-SYSTEMS as well as /gnu/store,
which is bound to fail in unprivileged Docker.
This patch makes it so that 'guix system container' still gets those
file systems, but 'guix system docker-image' doesn't.

The default value of the argument REGISTER-CLOSURE? of the ISO9660-IMAGE,
QEMU-IMAGE and SYSTEM-DOCKER-IMAGE procedures can be computed automatically,

* guix/scripts/system.scm (system-derivation-for-action): Add

deprecated.
* gnu/services/mcron.scm (mcron-service): Likewise.
* gnu/services/networking.scm (tor-service): Likewise.
* doc/guix.texi (Scheduled Job Execution): Remove 'mcron-service' and
adjust example.
(Networking Services): Remove 'tor-service'.
* gnu/tests/base.scm (%mcron-os): Use 'mcron-service-type' instead of
'mcron-service'.
* gnu/tests/networking.scm (%tor-os): Use 'tor-service-type' instead of
'tor-service'.
* tests/guix-system.sh: Likewise.
This ensures one can scp to or from the GuixSD machine that uses the
service.
* gnu/services/ssh.scm (openssh-service-type)[extensions]: Add
PROFILE-SERVICE-TYPE extension.
* gnu/system/examples/bare-bones.tmpl <packages>: Remove OPENSSH.
* doc/guix.texi (Using the Configuration System): Adjust accordingly.
Previously 'expression->initrd' would return the directory that contains
the 'initrd' file; now it returns the complete file name for that file.
* gnu/system/linux-initrd.scm (expression->initrd)[builder]: Change
output file name to "initrd.cpio.gz". Tail-call 'file-append' to return
the complete file name.
* gnu/system.scm (operating-system-initrd-file): Remove 'file-append'
call.
* gnu/build/linux-initrd.scm (write-cpio-archive): Check whether OUTPUT
already has the ".gz" suffix; rename if before invoking GZIP if it does,
and otherwise after.
* gnu/system/vm.scm (expression->derivation-in-linux-vm)[builder]: Do
not append "/initrd" to #$initrd.
This is an incompatible change visible to users via the 'initrd' field
of 'operating-system'. However, assuming the user's 'initrd' value
tail-calls to 'raw-initrd' or 'base-initrd', the switch to non-monadic
style is invisible.
* gnu/system/linux-initrd.scm (expression->initrd): Use 'computed-file'
instead of 'gexp->derivation'.
(raw-initrd, base-initrd): Adjust docstring to mention non-monadic
return.
* gnu/system/vm.scm (expression->derivation-in-linux-vm): Adjust
accordingly.
* gnu/system.scm (operating-system-directory-base-entries)
(operating-system-initrd-file)
(operating-system-boot-parameters): Adjust accordingly.
* doc/guix.texi (operating-system Reference)
(Initial RAM Disk): Update.
* gnu/system.scm (bootable-kernel-arguments): Remove 'kernel-arguments'
parameter and return only the base list of kernel arguments. Rename
'system.drv' to 'system'.
(operating-system-kernel-arguments): Adjust accordingly and remove
'system.drv' parameter.
(read-boot-parameters-file): Adjust accordingly. Remove 'if params'
since dominating code assumed PARAMS is always true.
(operating-system-boot-parameters): Remove 'system.drv' parameter; add
#:system-kernel-arguments? instead and honor it.
(operating-system-bootcfg): Adjust accordingly.
(operating-system-boot-parameters-file): Likewise.
* gnu/system/vm.scm (system-qemu-image/shared-store-script): Remove
'os-drv' variable. Adjust call to 'operating-system-kernel-arguments'.
This significantly improves read throughput when running things like
"guix hash -r ...".
* gnu/system/vm.scm (%linux-vm-file-systems): Add 'flags' for "store".
Add "cache=loose" to every file system.
