[bug#65119] [PATCH 0/8] Sharing service code between Home and System

[Ludovic Courtès]

Hello Guix!

Some services make as much sense as a System and as a Home service.
Two examples that came up recently are Syncthing and dicod:

  https://issues.guix.gnu.org/63758
  https://issues.guix.gnu.org/62401

In these cases, we’d rather avoid code duplication and have a common
code base for both the System and the Home service.

This patch lets us map System services to Home and uses the new
mechanism for three services: mcron, dicod, and syncthing.

Feedback welcome!

Ludo’.
