services: zabbix: Don't write user to configuration file.

The service already runs with the specified user and group, so there is no use
in writing it to the configuration files.  This change is mainly done for
compatibility with 'zabbix-agent2' which does not understand the User=
setting, but also to document the correct data type for the "group" setting.

* gnu/services/monitoring.scm (serialize-string): Filter USER and GROUP
fields.
(group?, serialize-group): Remove variables.
(zabbix-server-configuration, zabbix-agent-configuration): Document the GROUP
field as 'string'.
* doc/guix.texi (Monitoring Services): Adjust accordingly.
