scripts: system: Rationalize persistency.
Make sure that the images are created with a non volatile root by default and the vm are created with a volatile root by default. Break the --volatile option into --volatile-image and --persistent-vm options. * guix/scripts/system.scm (perform-action): Turn volatile? argument into volatile-vm-root?. (show-help): Introduce --volatile-image and --persistent-vm options instead of --volatile. (%default-options): Adapt it. (%options): Handle those options. (process-action): Honor them. * doc/guix.texi (Invoking guix system): Adapt it accordingly.
