activation: Shared system home directories are now 555 and root-owned.
Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/34788>. Reported by Jack Hill <jackhill@jackhill.us>. Regression introduced by the combination of 8bb76f3d44c1f5ffec8011819494db306a51d801 and 0ae735bcc8ff7fdc89d67b492bdee9091ee19e86: /var/empty would be 700 and owned by one of the system accounts (thus inaccessible to others), and /var/run/dbus would be 700 as well, thereby preventing D-Bus clients from connecting to the daemon. * gnu/build/activation.scm (duplicates): New procedure. (activate-users+groups)[system-accounts]: New variable. Use it. Make shared system account home directories #o555 and root-owned. * gnu/services/dbus.scm (dbus-activation): Make /var/run/dbus #o755. * gnu/tests/base.scm (run-basic-test): Test the ownership and permissions of /var/empty.
