services: guix-build-coordinator: Rework authentication config.
A new authentication approach has been added to the coordinator, so to better
represent the options, this commit changes the configuration to accept
different records, each for different authentication approaches.

* gnu/services/guix.scm (guix-build-coordinator-agent-configuration-uuid,
guix-build-coordinator-agent-configuration-password,
guix-build-coordinator-agent-configuration-password-file): Removed
procedures.
(guix-build-coordinator-agent-password-auth,
guix-build-coordinator-agent-password-auth?,
guix-build-coordinator-agent-password-auth-uuid,
guix-build-coordinator-agent-password-auth-password,
guix-build-coordinator-agent-password-file-auth,
guix-build-coordinator-agent-password-file-auth?,
guix-build-coordinator-agent-password-file-auth-uuid,
guix-build-coordinator-agent-password-file-auth-password-file): New
procedures.
(guix-build-coordinator-agent-shepherd-services): Adjust to handle the
authentication field and it's possible record values.

services: cuirass: Improve simple-cuirass-services.
Instead of returning multiple services in simple-cuirass-services, rely on the
instantiate-missing-services procedure to instantiate postgresql and
postgresql-role-service-type when missing.

Turn simple-cuirass-services procedure into
simple-cuirass-configuration->specs, that takes a simple-cuirass-configuration
record and returns a Cuirass specification.

(simple-cuirass-services): Rename it to ...

services: databases: Don't specify a default postgresql version.
Currently, if the postgresql package major version changes, this is going to
break the service upon upgrade, because PostgreSQL will reject the data files
from the differing major version of the service.

Because it's important to either keep running a particular major version, or
intentionally upgrade, I think the configuration would be better with no
default. I think this is also going to be helpful when trying to assist users
upgrading PostgreSQL.

offload: Improve load normalization and configurability.
Fixes <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/43773>.

The computed normalized load was previously obtained by dividing the load
average as found in /proc/loadavg by the number of parallel builds defined for
a build machine.

This normalized load didn't allow to compare machines with different number of
cores, as the load average reported by /proc/loadavg can be as high as the
number of cores; thus comparing that value to a fixed threshold of 2.0 would
mean machines with multiple cores were more likely to be flagged as overloaded
compared to single core machines.

This can be fixed by normalizing using the available number of cores instead
of the number of parallel jobs.

* guix/scripts/offload.scm (<build-machine>)[overload-threshold]: New field.
(node-load): Modify to return a normalized load value between 0 and 1, taking
into account the number of cores available.
(normalized-load): Remove procedure.

'report-load' and 'build-machine-overload-threshold' procedures.
