pack: Allow setting a custom image tag for Docker images
Previously, the image repository name was automatically computed from
the packages in the manifest without allowing the user to set a custom
one. As such, changing the packages in the manifest would result in a
new image name. Thereby requiring updating documentation et cetera when
using `docker load` directory on the resulting image.

Inspired by `docker build -t`, this commit adds a new Docker-specific
option to `guix pack` which allows setting a custom repository name for
the resulting image. If this option is not specified, pack falls back
to computing the name from the manifest. Therefore, this change is
entirely backwards compatible.

* guix/scripts/pack.scm (guix-pack): Add --image-tag option.
(%docker-format-options): New constant.
(show-docker-format-options): New procedure.
(show-docker-format-options/detailed): New procedure.
(docker-image): Allow setting a custom
repository name for the created docker image via extra-options.
* doc/guix.texi (Invoking guix pack)[docker]: Document --image-tag option.

image: Introduce the mbr-hybrid-raw image type.
Until 209204e23b and
d57cab7641, the default image type used by "guix
system image" was an MBR image with an ESP partition.

Having both an MBR image and an ESP partition is handy because the image will
boot on most x86 based systems using legacy BIOS and/or UEFI.

We now have a distinction between MBR images and EFI images. Introduce a new
MBR hybrid image type and default to it to restore the default behaviour.

This also fixes the images section of (gnu ci) that was trying to install a
BIOS bootloader on an EFI, GPT image and failing to do so.
