[bug#42899] [PATCH v5 2/6] services: dovecot: Provide plugins through a /gnu/store directory.

[Alexey Abramov]

* gnu/services/mail.scm (package-list?, serialize-package-list):
* gnu/services/mail.scm (dovecot-configuration)[extensions]: New field. The 
field
lets you provide a list of dovecot plugins that need to be available during
the runtime. A union of the set of modules will be created on the activation 
time.
* gnu/services/mail.scm (opaque-dovecot-configuration)[extensions]: Likewise.
* gnu/services/mail.scm (%dovecot-moduledir): New function.
* gnu/services/mail.scm (%dovecot-activation): Add step to compute a set of
modules, and provide them over the shared link at /usr/lib/dovecot.
* doc/guix.texi (Mail Services)[extension]: Add documentation.
