system: Add support for boot-time mapped devices.
* gnu/build/linux-boot.scm (boot-system): Add #:pre-mount parameter and honor it. * gnu/system/linux-initrd.scm (base-initrd): Add #:mapped-devices parameter. Add 'device-mapping-commands' variable, and use it to build the #:pre-mount argument of 'boot-system'. * gnu/system.scm (mapped-device-user, operating-system-user-mapped-devices, operating-system-boot-mapped-devices): New procedures. (device-mapping-services): Use 'operating-system-user-mapped-devices' instead of 'operating-system-mapped-devices'. (operating-system-initrd-file): Call the initrd with #:mapped-devices.
