guix system: Don't warn about old distros for "guix system init". * guix/scripts/system.scm (process-action): Don't call 'warn-about-old-distro' when ACTION is 'init' or 'build'.
guix system: Increase image size for 'guix system vm'. This is a followup to 9a1bfe764859365b6726f168da95b88a2d22403b. * guix/scripts/system.scm (system-derivation-for-action): Add 40MiB to the default size for 'vm'.

Pass a new argument, "installer-drv" which is a script in store dealing with bootloader-specific install actions. Also call "install-boot-config" to install the bootloader config file. (install-bootloader-derivation): New procedure. It returns a derivation that builds a file containing "install-procedure" gexp. (perform-action): Build install-proc derivation and call install-bootloader with the resulting file. Stop adding GRUB to PATH as bootloaders are called in install-proc with direct store paths.
