services: base: Add optional delayed mount of file-systems

Add a mechanism to only require mounting a subset of file-system entries
during early Shepherd initialization. Any file-system with additional Shepherd
service requirements (e.g. networking) is not required to provision
'file-systems.

* gnu/services/base.scm (file-system-shepherd-service): Splice
file-system-requirements into the Shepherd service requirement list.
(file-system-shepherd-services): Provision 'file-system only when file system
services without additional Shepherd requirements are started.
* gnu/system/file-systems.scm (file-system): Add shepherd-requirements field
to the file-system record. This field is used for adding additional Shepherd
requirements to a file-system Shepherd service.
* doc/guix.texi: Add documentation for file-system shepherd-requirements.

Another example is a file system that depends on a mapped device, for
example for an encrypted partition (@pxref{Mapped Devices}).
@item @code{shepherd-requirements} (default: @code{'()})
This is a list of symbols denoting Shepherd requirements that must be
met before mounting the file system.
As an example, an NFS file system would typically have a requirement for
@code{networking}.
Typically, file systems are mounted before most other Shepherd services
are started. However, file systems with a non-empty
shepherd-requirements field are mounted after Shepherd services have
begun. Any Shepherd service that depends on a file system with a
non-empty shepherd-requirements field must depend on it directly and not
on the generic symbol @code{file-systems}.
