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 fixes or greatly increases the chances for `guix pull' to succeed on the
Hurd, see <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/65456>.
* guix/self.scm (compiled-modules)[process-directory]: Move hardcoded size to
keyword parameter #:size. Set it to 10 when compiling "guix-packages-base".
This increases the chances of a successful `guix pull' on the Hurd,
see <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/65456>.
* guix/self.scm (compiled-modules)[process-directory]: Split building of
directories into chunks of max 25 files. Also call gc.
* guix/transformations.scm (tuned-package): Use either bag-target if
available or bag-system to select the CPU architecture of the package
that is going to be tuned. This enables the tuning of cross-compiled
packages.

The UNCHANGED? comparison would always yield #FALSE, because we have been
comparing lists of strings with lists of symbols.
* guix/upstream.scm (update-package-inputs): Convert string labels to symbols
before comparison.
Fixes <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/58697>.
* guix/gnu-maintenance.scm (import-html-updatable-release): Update doc.
<expand-uri>: New nested procedure. Apply it to the origin URI.

* guix/scripts/shell.scm (authorized-shell-directory?): After warning,
continue LOOP to return valid query result for DIRECTORY.
"CC=gcc" is almost always incorrect; people often just don't
notice the incorrectness because they are compiling natively.
For an exception, see tzdata.
"guix style" partially made things worse, so I partially ignored it.

("compiler-for-target: looks through G-expressions")
("compiler-for-target: (cc-for-target) is acceptable")
("compiler-for-target: CC=gcc is acceptable when target=#false"):

Updating the simh package would fail with:
ice-9/boot-9.scm:1685:16: In procedure raise-exception: In procedure

string): ("http://simh.trailing-edge.com/sources/simhv312-4.zip"

This is because it expects a scalar value, but lists are allowed for URIs.
* guix/gnu-maintenance.scm (import-html-updatable-release): Check that URI is
a string before checking if it has the mirror:// prefix.

Previously, the generic HTML updater would only look for the list of files
found at the parent of its current source URL, ignoring that the URL may embed
the version elsewhere in its path. This could cause 'guix refresh' to report
no updates available, while in fact there were, such as for 'libuv'.
* guix/gnu-maintenance.scm (strip-trailing-slash): New procedure.
(%version-rx): New variable.
(rewrite-url): New procedure.
(import-html-release): New rewrite-url? argument. When true, use the above
procedure.
(import-html-updatable-release): Call import-html-release with #:rewrite-url
set to #t.
* tests/gnu-maintenance.scm ("rewrite-url, to-version specified")
("rewrite-url, without to-version"): New tests.
* guix/gnu-maintenance.scm
(canonicalize-url): New procedure, extracted from...
(import-html-release): ... here. Use it. Rename inner PACKAGE variable to
NAME, to explicit it is a string and not a package object.
This is in preparation for a new URL rewriting feature, which will need to
have the current version information available.
* guix/gnu-maintenance.scm (import-html-release): Update doc. Adjust default
value of the DIRECTORY argument. Bind PACKAGE in lexical scope so that its
value there is unchanged.
(import-savannah-release, import-kernel.org-release)
(import-html-updatable-release): Adjust accordingly.
It doesn't make sense to have it default to something like
"https://kernel.org/pub"; it should always be provided explicitly.
* guix/gnu-maintenance.scm (import-html-release) <#:base-url>: Turn keyword
argument into a positional argument. Update doc.
* guix/gnu-maintenance.scm (import-savannah-release): Adjust call accordingly.
(import-kernel.org-release): Likewise.
(import-html-updatable-release): Likewise.
* 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 fixes <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/65474>.
* guix/profiles.scm (texlive-font-maps): Also check for TeX Live dependencies
in non "texlive-" prefixed packages.
For example, PYTHON-NBCONVERT propagates TeX Live inputs. Those need to be
found out when building ".map"" files.

Similar to the Makefile.am change, this breaks-up gnu/packages into 26 chunks
when building on 32bit. Also force garbage collection.
* guix/self.scm (compiled-modules)[process-directory]: Split building of
"gnu/packages" into 26 chunks.
This allows users to write Bash commands like:
guix time-machine -C <(echo %default-channels) -- ...
or:
guix build -m <(echo '(specifications->manifest (list "guile"))')
Previously, on GNU/Linux, they would fail with:
error: failed to load '/dev/fd/63': No such file or directory

Previously 'guix home container' would create a container without /tmp,
