This is a follow-up of e5ed1712da. Restore the
behaviour before d57cab7641 and produce
hybrid, BIOS and UEFI capable qcow2 images.
* gnu/system/image.scm (qcow2-image-type): Inherit from mbr-hybrid-disk-image.
When using grub-bootloader with a GPT image, GRUB will fail during
installation with a cryptic error message.

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.

build that partition.

(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.
Generating a raw-with-offset image would previously not be bootable with
U-Boot.
* gnu/system/image.scm (root-partition) [file-system-options]: New field.
Cross-building a docker image with:
$ guix system image --image-type=docker --target=aarch64-linux-gnu os.scm
results in an image where the architecture declared in its config.json is
the host architecture rather than the target one. The binaries are
correctly cross-compiled, so the image can be loaded and used despite the
warning message shown by docker:
$ docker load -i vcal7bvsqcijchifhqdvprpd1niqh8sk-docker-image.tar.gz
Loaded image: guix:latest
$ docker create guix:latest
WARNING: The requested image's platform (linux/amd64) does not match the
detected host platform (linux/arm64/v8) and no specific platform was
requested

This is fixed by passing the correct triplet to the build-docker-image
function.
* gnu/system/image.scm (system-docker-image) Add ‘image-target’ variable.
[builder]: Pass ‘#:system’ argument to ‘build-docker-image’.

Make the operating-system field mandatory as creating an image without it
makes no sense. Introduce a new macro, image-without-os for the specific cases
where the image is only created to be inherited from afterwards.
* gnu/image.scm (<image>)[operating-system]: Make it mandatory.
* gnu/system/image.scm (image-without-os): New macro.
(efi-disk-image, efi32-disk-image, iso9660-image, docker-image,
raw-with-offset-disk-image): Use it.
* gnu/system/images/hurd.scm (hurd-disk-image): Ditto.
Previously, the default value would lead to a wrong-type-to-apply crash.
* gnu/system/image.scm (system-disk-image)[image-builder]: When
'partition-initializer' returns #f, fall back to
INITIALIZE-ROOT-PARTITION.
* gnu/tests/base.scm (run-root-unmount-test)[test-image]: Remove
'initializer' field of partition.
* gnu/image.scm (<partition>)[initializer]: Add comment.
Previously 'system-image' would return *unspecified* in that case,
leading to a wrong-type-arg error crash down the road.
* gnu/system/image.scm (system-image): Add 'else' clause.
* gnu/bootloader/grub.scm (grub-efi32-bootloader): New variable.

When the image type is "raw" or derived from it (such as "qcow2"), an ESP
partition and file system is already added by the image generator. If a
conflicting user-provided EFI file system is provided, it causes the boot to
fail, as happens for the lightweight-desktop.tmpl and desktop.tmpl templates
under gnu/system/examples.
* gnu/system/image.scm (operating-system-for-image): Remove file systems whose
mount point is "/boot/efi".
This builds are extremely I/O-intensive so they'd rather not run on the
head node of the build farm.
* gnu/system/image.scm (system-disk-image, system-iso9660-image): Pass
#:local-build? #f.
* gnu/system/image.scm (arm32-disk-image, arm32-image-type): New variables.

* gnu/system/image.scm (arm64-disk-image, arm64-image-type): New variables.
This is a follow-up of f19cf27c2b. The
bootloader installation must be done on the final disk-image, hence using
"disk-image-installer" instead of "installer" callback.
* gnu/bootloader/u-boot.scm: Turn all installer callbacks into
disk-image-installer callbacks.
* gnu/build/bootloader.scm (write-file-on-device): Open the output file with
'no-truncate and 'no-create options.
* gnu/system/image.scm (with-imported-modules*): Add (gnu build bootloader)
module.
* gnu/system/image.scm (image-with-os): New macro. Rename the old
"image-with-os" procedure to ...
(image-with-os*): ... this new procedure,
(system-image): adapt according,
(raw-image-type, iso-image-type, uncompressed-iso-image-type
%image-types): new variables,
(lookup-image-type-by-name): new procedure.
(find-image): remove it.
* gnu/system/images/hurd.scm (hurd-image-type): New variable,
use it to define ...
(hurd-disk-image): ... this variable, using "os->image" procedure.
* gnu/tests/install.scm (run-install): Rename
installation-disk-image-file-system-type parameter to installation-image-type,
use os->config instead of find-image to compute the image passed to system-image,
(%test-iso-image-installer) adapt accordingly,
(guided-installation-test): ditto.

(genimage): Remove target argument.
* gnu/system/image.scm (system-disk-image): Add support for 'compressed-qcow2
image format. Call "convert-disk-image" to apply image conversions on the
final image. Add "qemu-minimal" to the build inputs.
(system-image): Also add support for 'compressed-qcow2.
* guix/scripts/system.scm (%options): Add `--label'.
(system-derivation-for-action): Take a #:label key to set volume ID.
(perform-action): Take a #:label key.
(%default-options): Add default label value.
(process-action): Pass label value from command-line to perform-action.
* gnu/system/image.scm (image-with-label): New procedure.
Image files can be very large (multiple gigabytes), and the process of
generating them is primarily I/O bound. As disk access is typically faster
than network access, it makes sense build them locally.
* gnu/system/image.scm (system-disk-image): Pass the #:local-build? #t
parameter to computed-file calls dealing with generating image files.
(system-iso9660-image): Likewise.
