[bug#42193] [WIP 0/6] Add kernel-module-configuration service

Hello Guix,

Here is a work-in-progress to create a service centralizing the configuration
for built-in and loadable kernel modules.  The kernel module configuration
service has been implemented by making some fields from 'operating-system'
custom from the 'services' field.

Here are are some example of how to use it.

;; Loadable kernel module
(simple-service 'ddcci-module kernel-module-configuration-service-type
                   (list (kernel-module
                          (name "ddcci")
                          (package ddcci-driver-linux)
                          (load? #t)
                          (options '("dyndbg" "delay=600")))
                         (kernel-module
                          (name "ddcci-backlight")
                          (blacklist? #t))))
;; Built-in kernel module
(simple-service 'intel-module
                         kernel-module-configuration-service-type
                         (list (kernel-module
                                (name "i915")
                                (options '("fastboot=1")))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

This WIP version is mainly missing the ability to configure built-in modules
trough the kernel arguments. It's the continuation of the work on
kernel-module-loader-service[1] and is needed to help fixing #41082[2].

I will try to go back to it after the GSOC network boot project.
