services: Add 'hurd-vm service-type'.

* gnu/services/virtualization.scm (hurd-vm-shepherd-service,
hurd-vm-disk-image): New procedures.
(%hurd-vm-operating-system, hurd-vm-service-type): New variables.
(<hurd-vm-configuration>): New record type.
* doc/guix.texi (Virtualization Services): Document it.
* gnu/services/shepherd.scm (scm->go): Use let-system, remove FIXME.  Fixes
fixes cross-building of shepherd modules for the Hurd image.

@subsubheading The Hurd in a Virtual Machine
@cindex @code{hurd}
@cindex the Hurd
Service @code{hurd-vm} provides support for running GNU/Hurd in a
virtual machine (VM), a so-called ``Childhurd''. The virtual machine is
a Shepherd service that can be controlled with commands such as:
@example
herd start hurd-vm
herd stop childhurd
@end example
The given GNU/Hurd operating system configuration is cross-compiled.
@defvr {Scheme Variable} hurd-vm-service-type
This is the type of the Hurd in a Virtual Machine service. Its value
must be a @code{hurd-vm-configuration} object, which specifies the
operating system (@pxref{operating-system Reference}) and the disk size
for the Hurd Virtual Machine, the QEMU package to use as well as the
options for running it.
For example:
@lisp
(service hurd-vm-service-type
(hurd-vm-configuration
(disk-size (* 5000 (expt 2 20))) ;5G
(memory-size 1024))) ;1024MiB
@end lisp
would create a disk image big enough to build GNU@tie{}Hello, with some
extra memory.
@end defvr
@deftp {Data Type} hurd-vm-configuration
The data type representing the configuration for
@code{hurd-vm-service-type}.
@table @asis
@item @code{os} (default: @var{%hurd-vm-operating-system})
The operating system to instantiate. This default is bare-bones with a
permissive OpenSSH secure shell daemon listening on port 2222
(@pxref{Networking Services, @code{openssh-service-type}}).
@item @code{qemu} (default: @code{qemu-minimal})
The QEMU package to use.
@item @code{image} (default: @var{hurd-vm-disk-image})
The procedure used to build the disk-image built from this
configuration.
@item @code{disk-size} (default: @code{'guess})
The size of the disk image.
@item @code{memory-size} (default: @code{512})
The memory size of the Virtual Machine in mebibytes.
@item @code{options} (default: @code{'("--device"} @code{"rtl8139,netdev=net0"} @
@code{"--netdev"} @
@code{"user,id=net0,hostfwd=tcp:127.0.0.1:20022-:2222,hostfwd=tcp:127.0.0.1:25900-:5900"} @
@code{"--snapshot"} @
@code{"--hda")})
The extra options for running QEMU.
@end table
@end deftp
Note that by default the VM image is volatile, i.e., once stopped the
contents are lost. If you want a stateful image instead, override the
configuration's @code{image} and @code{options} without
the @code{--snapshot} flag using something along these lines:
@lisp
(service hurd-vm-service-type
(hurd-vm-configuration
(image (const "/out/of/store/writable/hurd.img"))
(options '("--device" "rtl8139,netdev=net0"
"--netdev"
"user,id=net0,hostfwd=tcp:127.0.0.1:20022-:2222"))))
@end lisp
