    hydra: web: Make mcron job derivations deterministic.
    
    The result of (hash config period) varies between runs.  Thus, starting
    from bdb914a1242cb0c00957050c96d1e279d2eb5dec, each run of "guix system
    build -d ..." would produce a different derivation.
    
    This commit fixes that.
    
    * hydra/modules/sysadmin/web.scm (static-web-site-mcron-jobs)[record->list]:
    New procedure.
    Use it.
