[bug#32128] [PATCH 0/2] Support custom actions for Shepherd services

[Ludovic Courtès]

Hello Guix!

This is a long-awaited feature—nothing fancy, but it can certainly be
useful as illustrated by the ‘herd schedule mcron’ example below.

I suppose we can add actions for hot-swapping and reconfiguration of
services that support it, such as nginx: <https://bugs.gnu.org/26830>.

Feedback welcome!

Ludo’.

  services: shepherd: Support custom actions.
  services: mcron: Add 'schedule' action.
