When using grub-bootloader with a GPT image, GRUB will fail during
installation with a cryptic error message.
* gnu/system/image.scm (system-disk-image): Raise an error when trying to use
a non-EFI compatible bootloader with a GPT image partitioning.

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.

This really removes the locale-2.33 dependency running `guix system build
bare-hurd.tmpl' on the Hurd, that somehow still managed to leak-in?
* gnu/system/hurd.scm (%base-packages/hurd)[locale-libcs]: New field.
This reverts commit e9a5eebc78, which
as far as I can tell breaks system roll-backs thusly:

* gnu/system/accounts.scm (<user-account>)[home-directory-permissions]: New

permission bits from the user account object.

* gnu/system/image.scm (mbr-disk-image, mbr-raw-image-type): New variables.
(qcow2-image-type): Inherit mbr-disk-image.
* guix/scripts/system.scm (%default-options): Use mbr-raw-image-type by
default.
* gnu/tests/install.scm (run-install): Use mbr-raw in the tests.
* doc/guix-cookbook.texi (Guix System Image API): Update the list of image
types.
* doc/guix.texi (Invoking guix system, System Images, image-type Reference):
Add mbr-raw and switch documented default to it.
This is a followup to cf28f46930.
* gnu/system/examples/plasma.tmpl (services): Remove both
'gdm-service-type' and 'sddm-service-type' from %DESKTOP-SERVICES.
This led to a 'tests/guix-system.sh' failure on aarch64-linux:
…/plasma.tmpl:60:13: error: modify-services: service 'gdm' not found in service list
This is because 'gdm-service-type' is not among %DESKTOP-SERVICES on
that architecture.
* gnu/system/examples/plasma.tmpl (services): Use 'remove' rather
'modify-services' + 'delete'.
cgroup v2 is the next generation of the control groups API. This patch
replaces the cgroup v1 file systems with the unified cgroup v2 file
system.
cgroup v2 allows for things like containerd/podman to run rootless
containers and opens guix system up to running things like Kubernetes.
Thanks to Hilton Chain <hako@ultrarare.space> for suggesting the Docker
service change.
* gnu/system/file-systems.scm (%control-groups): Change to a single
"cgroup2" mount point.
* gnu/services/docker.scm (docker-shepherd-service): Trim 'requirement'
field accordingly.

When booting with pci-arbiter and rumpdisk and using 1024MB of memory for
qemu, booting hangs, or seems to hang, at the end of the rumpdisk boot
messages. At least 1200MB is required, currently.
* gnu/services/virtualization.scm (<hurd-vm-configuration>)[memory-size]: Bump
to 2048.
* gnu/system/examples/bare-hurd.tmpl: Suggest using 2048 here too. Update
example `guix system image' and "qemu" command lines too.

This allows for the use of Guix within a non-privileged Docker container
produced by 'guix system image -t docker'.
* gnu/system/linux-container.scm (containerized-operating-system):
Change 'guix-configuration' to add "--disable-chroot".
Previously, (ntfs-uuid->string (string->ntfs-uuid"5234ED0D34ECF53F"))
would yield "5234EDD34ECF53F".
Reported by sughosha in #guix.
* gnu/system/uuid.scm (ntfs-uuid->string): Pad hex bytes with zero when
needed.
* gnu/system/image.scm (system-disk-image)[partition-image]: Adjust the
inputs used by the image-builder to only use the packages necessary to
build that partition.
* gnu/build/image.scm (make-unformatted-image): New procedure.
(make-partition-image): Add support for unformatted partition.
* gnu/system/image.scm (system-disk-image)[partition->gpt-type]: Add
case for using unformatted partition uuid.
This is a followup to dbbc7e9461:
'nscd-service-type' isn't necessarily present in OS, so we cannot use
the 'modify-services' as it would now error out. This was happening
with the "guix system docker-image" test in 'tests/guix-system.sh'.
* gnu/system/linux-container.scm (containerized-operating-system): Use
'filter-map' instead of 'remove' + 'modify-services'.
When the 'stop' method returns a truth value, shepherd interprets it as
potential failure and logs it.
* gnu/system/pam.scm (pam-shepherd-service): Change 'stop' method to
return #f.
* gnu/system/hurd.scm (%base-packages/hurd): Change shepherd to shepherd-0.8,
since the former uses fibers, and thus conflicts with the shepherd-0.8 we use in
the default essential services.

Fixes <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/61627>.
* gnu/system/linux-container.scm (container-essential-services): When
shared-network? is true, remove the hosts-service-type service kind.
* gnu/system/shadow.scm (default-skeleton): Update gdbinit to search for
more debug packages in guix-home and the system profile.
(skeleton-directory): Move .gdbinit to .config/gdb/gdbinit.
This follows up on commit c077345539, and
adds a comment to avoid this in future.
* gnu/system/file-systems.scm (invalid-file-system-flags):
Add 'no-diratime to the list of KNOWN-FLAGS.
Make it consistent with bash_profile generated by Guix Home.
* gnu/system/shadow.scm (default-skeletons)[bash_profile]: Source .profile in
skeleton bash_profile.
