[PATCH 0/2] Activate system when switching generations. |

Hello,
As reported on previous bug report, rolling-back or switching generation
doesn't activate the system as a system reconfiguration would do. This is
especially problematic when modifying in /run/setuid-programs, as it can't be
reverted easily. Also it hinder modification in the activation script since
it's not straight forward to revert change made by those script without a
functional roll-back mechanism.
I'm not sure it's the right approach but at least it work: it add the
activate.scm script to the system profile and then load it when
switching-generation.
This is related to issues:
- #37596 and #38884 (they are duplicate)
- #36855 a more wider discussion
Cheers,
- Brice

Pushed as df138dc20858725b90ed77be85f3318cbe1be73a and later. I'll close
#38884 and will do the same or comment #36855 and #37596 about the new
feature.
Cheers,
