[bug#63985] [PATCH RFC v2 2/5] services: configuration: Use transducers within serialize-configuration.

[Bruno Victal]

Introduces 'base-transducer', a SRFI-171 based transducer that can be used as a
starting point for writing custom configuration record serializing procedures.

This also fixes the symbol maybe-value serialization test case.

* gnu/services/configuration.scm (empty-serializer?): New predicate.
(base-transducer, tfilter-maybe-value): New procedure.
(serialize-configuration): Adapt to use base-transducer.

* gnu/services/telephony.scm (jami-account->alist): Use transducers to skip
fields that are unserializable or whose field maybe-value is unset.

* tests/services/configuration.scm: Remove test-expect-fail.
