[bug#48803] [PATCH] strongswan: provide a service definition and configuration interface.

[Domagoj Stolfa]

This commit adds a strongswan-service-type which allows the user to
start strongswan correctly on Guix. Without this, they would need to
manually write a strongswan.conf file and run it with

`STRONGSWAN_CONF=/path/to/strongswan.conf ipsec start`.

For now, we only support the legacy ipsec.conf/ipsec.secrets interface.
Because ipsec.conf depends on indentation and is a deprecated intreface,
we do not provide an EDSL to configure it, and we do not put the config
file in a Guile string (to avoid indentation issues). Similarly,
ipsec.secrets contains the users authentication token/passwords, and is
for security reasons transmitted separately from the configuration file.

This change allows the user to write something as follows in their
config:

```
    (service strongswan-service-type
             (strongswan-configuration
              (use-ipsec? #t)
              (ipsec-conf "/config-files/ipsec.conf")
              (ipsec-secrets "/config-files/ipsec.secrets")))
```

This will start the charon daemon and allow them to connect to their
VPNs configured in `/config-files/ipsec.conf`.
